📖 Conditional Living — A Chapbook of Disabled Resistance, Raw Identity & Unapologetic Truths

📖 Conditional Living — A Chapbook of Disabled Resistance, Raw Identity & Unapologetic Truths

Conditional Living is not just a collection of poems — it’s a testimony. A roar. A whispered revolution.

This chapbook dives unapologetically into life with Tourette’s, OCD, ADHD, Functional Neurological Disorder, visual stress, and chronic illness. It explores what it means to live in a world that often demands we justify our existence, label our pain, and make our invisible visible to be believed.

These poems are not quiet.
They disrupt, challenge, comfort, and confront.
They speak of tics mistaken for attention-seeking, scars mistaken for shame, and neurodivergence mistaken for disorder.

🔹 Inside You’ll Find:

• Unfiltered reflections on identity, disability, and social stigma
• Lyrical protest against ableism and systemic misunderstanding
• Fierce declarations of self-worth, resilience, and visibility
• A mixture of biting sarcasm, gentle grief, and radical self-love
• Lines you’ll carry with you, long after the page ends

🔹 For Readers Who:

• Live with disability or chronic illness
• Have ever felt like a visitor in their own body
• Crave poetry that tells the truth, even when it’s messy
• Believe that softness and strength are not opposites

This is not a guidebook.
This is a reclamation.
This is Conditional Living.
