Chronic Illness Be Like: Now Our Right Knee Is Hurting

"omg do you have a hangover?"

nope, just a chronic illness

SAY IT WITH ME: MEDICAL GASLIGHTING IS MALPRACTICE

having to wait a long time for a doctors appointment sucks, because until i got proof i am not getting any accomodations from my school and it's affecting my health even more

love the random wave of nausea that hits me multiple times a day /s

i'm so tired of feeling sick all the time

i don't want to be miserable... i wanna worry about things that other people my age worry about and not how to manage doctor appointments... i want a doctor to actually help... i wanna feel okay and not be scared of dying

me: oh! i think i feel ok today!

me: [sits up]

me: oh. never mind

i'm in too much pain to sleep and i have to get up in a few hours cause it's a busy day

i am lucky if i get to close my eyes for a few minutes and it sucks

wanted to go to london to see a festival with some friends and i realized i would need to get an accessible ticket to go...

it feels odd to actually depend on accessibility

i explained to my teacher today that my medical condition won't just go away, there is no cure... he said that it can't be true, because he can't believe that all you're being told is "you just gotta live with it"

he also said i shouldn't choose my carreer path depending on how doable it would be with my illnees, but this is my reality... i need to consider things like that

my back pain is so bad today idk how i'm supposed to do things or even sleep!

i'm already doing physio therapy so idk what else to do about it at this point
