Whoever decided to force chronically ill/physically disabled kids to do p.e should be hunted for sport
"omg do you have a hangover?"
nope, just a chronic illness
being told you look like shit is weirdly validating. like at first it’s a bit hurtful but then i’m like…you can see it??? YOU CAN SEE IT????
SAY IT WITH ME: MEDICAL GASLIGHTING IS MALPRACTICE
someone told me that they would end themselves if they had even half of my health issues... idk what to do with that information...
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
the flesh is unwilling and honestly, the spirit isn't too keen on the idea either
i feel like i only really developed something similar to health anxiety after a chronic illness...
because what if this is just a new thing now?
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
You are well within your right to be angry about the help you didn't get and should have gotten.
You are well within your right to be angry about having your needs neglected.
You are well within your right to be angry.
Dysautonomia is so wild.
You'll just be vibing and chilling, and your nervous system will go, "Hey, can't help but notice you ate a little more food than usual; we're gonna have to shut everything else down and direct all the blood in your body to your stomach," and suddenly you're lying on the floor with your legs elevated and a heart rate of 140 because your body doesn't body so good.
