#Sick Kid

[turtwig387]

I'm not quite sure how to explain it but I feel like being / having been a Sick Kid (tm) taught me that pain is just something you have to go through.

Because as a kid you don't have a choice, and the bad things happen, the sickness whatever it is, and then usually uncomfortable or painful treatment of whatever sort. (I won't list examples, that would just be triggering)

So you learn that bad things are just something you have to deal with

And it's weird because I feel like as an adult (and probably before then), I don't always realize I have a choice in most situations, especially outside of medical things.

And I don't always realize I don't HAVE to sit through OTHER bad things usually. Because bad things are just something you have to deal with.

I don't always realize in life that I have the choice to say no or to walk away. (Or other examples). Because bad things are just something you have to deal with. Pain is just something you have to go through.

There's no call to action, this is just a thought I had, and maybe a sort of vent. Maybe other people feel the same or similar.

This is Yui from Angel beats! SPOILERS

Yui became paralyzed and physically disabled after an accident when she was young. Due to this, she remained bed written for most of her life, and was taken care of by her mom. In the afterlife, she is ecstatic to have full mobility and rejoices in being able to do all kinds of things she had never even dreamed of before.

negative stereotypes? None! Many people (including me) relate to her and her representation of being physically disabled and appreciate the representation that was shown after the fact when she was reincarnated.

Hello :) How would SK!Sun react to seeing a kid who's clearly very sick/struggling to stay awake as they study for a test in the library, insisting they can't rest until they're done studying?

Similar for SK!Moon if he saw a sick kid basically zombie-shuffling around, insisting he's fine cuz he wants to enjoy the rides at the park?

Sun would strongly encourage they go home and get some rest, that their health is far more important (plus other children could get sick) and remind them they could study at home, if possible.

Moon would find the kid's parents and ask them why they would bring their sick child to the amusement park in the first place. His reaction would depend on their answer.

Dear Gus & Magnus,

Magnus popped a fever last night and acted a little needy, so Mom jumped on getting him in to see Dr. Strong. No ear infection, no strep, acted normal all day, back to school tomorrow.

Dad.

I've been subscribed to chronic illness for about three years now and if I may, can I just say I do not recommend this service. It leaves you with no social life, horrible pain, and constant doctor's appointments.

1/10: do not recommend

The worst neglect is when your parents emotionally neglect you but they still go through hell to take care of you physically and medically

But they don’t reach the mental health problems until you’re supposed to be getting a job or going to college

But you can’t because you’re emotionally stunted to the point where you couldn’t even finish high school

They’re doing everything to keep me safe and healthy but them prioritizing my surgeries left me with no time with my parents

They me in after school care and all day summer camp up until I was in 8th grade and then deciding to homeschool me left me with no independence and the only socialization I got was from things they set up

I had the same personality at 15 that I did at 8. I too was childish and loud around other people but alone I didn’t know who I was as a person I didn’t have any hobbies all I did was escape into books

If I didn’t get diagnosed with autism and ADHD when I was little I would have been in the gifted program I had the gifted kid problem of never learning how to study or work because I recognized all the patterns

I hit my burn out in 6th grade

My parents homeschooling didn’t help my mom had no idea what she was doing saying we were going at my own pace and then screaming at me for not doing it fast enough and telling me I wouldn’t last a day in real high school because I would have to sit still but she didn’t let me take breaks either

All my issues got ignored until I had a paranoid or anxiety episode that made me nearly crash the car because my mom wouldn’t stop talking while I was driving and criticizing my driving in detail while the radio was on and the sound was too much

My mom downplays my autism and adhd by saying “you’re just going to have to learn to cope” because I won’t be able to get a job that has accommodations but she doesn’t let me do anything to cope

She wouldn’t let me have any fidget toys unless they were “appropriate” the only one that was appropriate was a fidget ring that made my hand itch

No fidget spinner no hand brush (she actually destroyed the one my elementary school gave me) no chewlery no matter how covert it was not even a stress ball

Now I have joint pain from cracking every joint I could as a way to fidget

Unless she could physically see what was wrong nothing was done about it. Both my ankles click when I walk and my hip constantly pops (not out but it is incredibly painful) my right elbow makes a grinding clicking sound when I bend it all the way my knees give out constantly and my left knee clicks weird because a tv (CRT) fell on my leg and my dad didn’t think I was actually in pain

I hate being my own glass child

If anyone can help my friend, Emily, get medicine for her kids that'd be amazing. She's a single mom of 2 awesome kids and she's in a rough financial situation right now. As it says above, her son is sick possibly with pneumonia and she needs $96.47 to get him the medicine he needs.

Flashback to the time I used to get so sick that the doctors knew me pretty well and whenever my mom used to go to the hospital they'd ask "oh your daughter didn't come?:)"

LIKE NO POOJA DO YOU WANT ME TO STAY SICK ALL THE TIME?

That episode in peppa pig where the kids are in the class and one kid gets sick then all the kids get sick and then when the parents pick up the kids they end up sick too and the teacher gets sick and the doctor gets sick sums up the life of having a child in preschool

Dear Gus & Magnus,

Magnus kept us up most of the night last night. He's developed a cold, but there was something beyond that, so Mom kept him home and took him to the doctor today. Turns out he has a double ear infection. He has been an absolute lunatic and completely irrational all day because of it. Poor thing. We got him some meds and hopefully he'll kick it quickly. Or at least get some sleep/let us get some sleep tonight.

I'm excited to be taking this week off from work to write from various coffee shops around town. Among other things, I'm writing my Best Arkansas Meals of the Year article for the Arkansas Times. Here's last year's.

Dad.

How do I tell people I don't want their condolences when I relapse? I don't what them to come over and make me soup, to treat me like a child, I don't want them to tell me that what I'm going through is difficult and I'm brave for putting up with it, no shit Sherlock, chronic illness sucks, we've established that already. When I get sick I want you to come over and listen to me rant about this new tv show I just finished, I want to play video games with you, and draw and have you call me an idiot for spilling paint everywhere. I want to laugh and forget about all this shit for 30 minutes. I'm sick of pitty, just treat me normally
