✨🖤hello my dears, I hope you are well today!!
This has all been on my mind since it is the time of year the Big Bad Agh Oh No Happened, so I thought I’d share a bit. 

🖤Last year around this time, I was genuinely the most depressed I had ever been in my entire life. I was struggling a lot, and going through a very devastating emotional thing that I keep offline for privacy, plus in a lot of pain. I pretty much was either in bed sobbing, or trying my best to keep blpd afloat for months 😅. 

🖤long story short, around this time in September I had a plan to,,, exit. Miranda came to my house and talked me down, and we ended up closing blpd a bit earlier then expected (we were planned to close for my surgery on Oct 8th) for my mental health. I felt SO guilty yall, I felt like a massive hypocrite, but looking back I know I was trying my best and just needed help. (I love you Miranda.) It was Very Not Good. 
🖤then I had that surgery and it went wrong. And dear goodness, it was painful. Painful, scary, stressful, a FIGHT. I have always been a very strong person, but yikes on bikes y’all. Countless hospitalizations/er visits, more surgeries and procedures, and less of my intestine and no more appendix (plus, infection free!!!) and I am now here. 
🖤I think hospital round one showed me I was stronger than I thought, and allowed me to resolve the bad emotional situation in my life.
🖤I think because of the autism I struggle to connect with people and believe people care about me, but after seeing the amount of love I was given from so many people in my life, and after seeing how many people say BLPD has helped them, I just feel like I belong now. Dunno how else to explain it. Thank you guys so much. You do so much more than you know and I am honored to be able to work this job. 
🖤 The pain in general has taught me a lot, like taking care of myself and asking for help. 
🖤I am assuming this month and October will be tough, especially because I actually have an upcoming surgery October 17. 

But as I sit here listening to Kraftwerk typing this, alive and happy, I am just grateful. Thank you all. There is always something worth fighting for! 🖤🦛 by @borderlinepunkdesign

🖤 FAQ About Chewelry

🖤We use BPA-free, phthalate-free, food-grade silicone to craft every chew!🖤

🟢 Why use chewelry?
Chewelry can be used for:
🖤stimming & self-regulation (especially popular in autistic, ADHD, and neurodivergent communities!)
🖤redirecting nail/cheek/lip biting
🖤general chewing urges

I personally live with autism, ADHD, anxiety, bipolar, and PTSD - and for me, chewelry has been an amazing tool for self-regulation. 🦇

🖤🦛Hello my dears!!! Happy Monday, it’s great to see you! Today we are having a little chit chat about what to do when you’re feeling paralyzed by the world! 

There are SOOOO many ways you can make a positive impact in this world: 🖤🦛🖤

- Volunteer (food banks, shelters, schools, environmental groups, senior homes, etc)
- Be kind intentionally! Check in on your loved ones, your neighbors, include somebody who might feel left out, give people grace when they make mistakes, be patient with people, etc
- Pick up litter when you see it 
- Support small and local businesses 
- Stand up for your peers 
- Take care of animals 
- Donate to charities and organizations that are trying to help people
- Advocate for a cause that is meaningful to you 
- Get involved with local politics 
this is just a few examples, there are many ways to benefit our communities! 

🖤If nothing specific comes to mind that you think you could do, I think an easy start is to make a “kindness habit”, so committing to doing something like complementing a stranger once a week, and building up from there! 

🖤You have the power to change the world friends, and the world needs you! I know it can feel hopeless, and even straight up like it isn’t worth trying, but never forget that even the smallest of positive acts can impact somebody else largely! 

Take care, we are all in this together!

Hi friends, 
:c the wacky health saga continues. Long story short: unfortunately I had an ER trip this morning, and am being admitted to the hospital for acute enterocolitis. It is painful, all of my surgery scars hurt extra bad, and on top of everything i have had Stayin Alive stuck in my head for hours lol, I cannot wait to go home lol. I am very overwhelmed 😅. 

🖤🦛Hillary has been providing excellent bedside care and expert snoot to face contact, so I am in good hands! (Fingers? She doesn’t really have hands.) I am not sure how long I’ll be here or what the plan is, but hopefully won’t be too long. In Hillary we trust! 

🖤luckily I got all orders in the Que packed yesterday, so that is good. The website is currently down and we are gonna close for a bit. Luna is on emails and keeping an eyeball on everything, so if you need anything just email customer service! I will be getting offline after this post, gotta go figure things out <3 but she is still here (we love Luna!!!) 

🖤I had said earlier this week that our free care packages would go out whether I was here or not, unfortunately our plans for if I was down were more “if I am stuck in bed and unable to pack them myself” and not “if I am admitted to the hospital”, so those will likely be delayed a bit, I am sooo sorry! :c this was unexpected, I was expecting at the worst I’d be on bedrest but still home, so I had not made a plan for if things were like this. I am very bummed. They’ll still be released, just probably a little later than anticipated. 

🖤I’ll be back soon my dears! Until then, be kind to yourself, be nice to your brains, and don’t forget that you are a loved and important individual!!! Hydrate and feed yourself!!! 🖤🖤🦛 by @borderlinepunkdesign

hey friends, it’s good to see you!! 🖤 

🖤I don’t typically work on the interwebs on sundays, but I thought I’d give you a little sneak peak of the next round of free care packages that I’ve been working on, made with our friends who are going back to school!! 

🖤So there will be these cute little stationary sets, along side some free chewelry, fidgets, and communication cards! I will post an update when I know an exact date that these will be listed, it’ll be within the next week and a half ish.

🖤I am so excited!!! I hope you guys like these, and that they’re helpful! Whether you are feeling stressed, excited, or a mix of feelings about going back to school, don’t forget that we’ve got your back! (Hillary is emitting good vibes into the universe for all of our scholarly friends xD) 

>:D I am gonna go back to assembling now. I’ll see you guys soon! Be kind to yourselves!! by @borderlinepunkdesign

🧼washing your chews thoroughly with soap and warm water frequently is a super important part of chewelry hygiene! Allow ito to fully dry after washing, then you are all set 🖤 

🖤things like chewelry spray and pacifier wipes can be helpful for a quick refresher to keep your chew clean on the go, but still should not be used to fully substitute soap and warm water. :D
