Wishing My Chronic Illness Would Take The Day Off On Busy Days

i need to lay in bed for a week to make up for one day i overdid it

can I have one *points at you*

Just because it’s “to be expected” doesn’t mean you’re not allowed to be upset about it.

i really respect people that say "oh i wouldn't wish this on anyone else" about their chronic illness because I WOULD

(unfortunately i might have become a little bitter, but i'm working on it)

people that adapt to your chronic illness,

people that give you a ride and pick you up places without making you feel guilty

people that go to the ER with you

people that make sure to walk slowly so you can keep up while using a mobility aid

people that are willing to try different things to help you

people that are willing to learn and listen to you when speaking about your chronic illness

barely having symptoms for a few days made me think i was cured... turns out that isn't the case

hypothetically in how much pain would i have to be in order for it to be okay to tell people to fuck off? because i am close

perhaps i am simply a delicate spoiled houseplant but i don’t think having a fun productive day should give you multi-day hangovers

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

i just went climbing today which is something that will probably send me into a flare up, but omg it was so much fun...

i wish i could do things like that without consequences
