Can I Have One *points At You*

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

having a low symptoms day and then suddenly the chronic pain strikes once again

"Why do I feel sick" my brother in christ you have a chronic illness

chronic pain and final exams at the same time isn't fun

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

this is why i always have headphones in

"it's not polite" well neither is my pain so fuck off

"Stop looking at your phone"

No. I need a constant distraction from the pain I am in. I promise you, you'd rather see me play solitaire on my phone for 45 mins than deal with me while being fully aware of my body. I PROMISE YOU I am listening better if i'm fiddling on my phone than if I'm sitting and being aware of my agony.

Also to everyone who has ever called me an iPad kid, die in a hole.

the concept of doctors is better than reality

i love teachers that offer accommodations in class without me even asking for it

[cheerfully] i've been in self-made hells worse than this

some guy invited me to go clubbing with him and his friends... i tell him i would go, even though it's not something i usually do, but i couldn't drink because of the medication i'm taking/health issues

he looked at me and just went "oh maybe some other time then"

and my question is why? WHY am i required to drink to hang out with people? and if that's just a rule then there won't be some other time, because i got a chronic illness and not just a cold
