Made The Typical Joke About "being Allergic To Gravity" Today And I Got An Understanding Nod Instead

"omg do you have a hangover?"

nope, just a chronic illness

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

Whoever decided to force chronically ill/physically disabled kids to do p.e should be hunted for sport

casually having a low symptom day the day of a doctors appointment

recovering from a simple cold really takes incredibly long when you have a chronic illness...

like please i wanna be able to do at least some things again

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

how are you supposed to tell people who you recently became friends with that you sometimes need to use a mobility aid?

is there even a way to make it not awkward? because it shouldn't be awkward

why is chronic illness so difficult to understand for healthy people?

like "yes, i am ill everyday"

"no, i will not be getting better soon"

naptime does become mandatory again when you're chronically ill
