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
i'm just gonna pretend when people stare at me in public/their heads turn when i walk by it's because i'm pretty, not because i use a cane
everything that could hurt... hurts...
shout out to everyone who doesn't have a chronic illness!
How does it it feel to not be terrified of having to stand for longer than a couple minutes?
the urge the give my dnd character a chronic illness cause i want representation
any tips for what helps with insomnia?
i feel like i wasted all my healthy years with being sad
having insomnia when having a chronic illness sucks!
my chronic illness flares up cause i don't get enough sleep, but i don't get enough sleep cause of my chronic illness
i can't get rid of this constant nausea ffs
so my school decided cause there were too many absences last year to note it on report cards which is whatever BUT they are gonna make a special note about it if you miss over 12 hours (even if it's excused, which is btw less time than i spent at hospitals the last month) so no matter what happens basically you have to go which is dumb
first of all i think doctors notes should completely excuse it because then it wasn't just staying at home for fun... also my school is the only one doing it in this region so only we will have disadventages when applying to university and yk how little 12 hours are? shit happens, like so many things can happen that you have no control over
a teacher offered to try to find a solution for me which i am thankfull for, but also this isn't only about me:
"oh but it probably won't affect you" i don't care it's still unfair
i think younger me would be disappointed, but current me is just grateful for the opportunities i have
