me, existing:

my insurance, suddenly: hey do you want to track down the dude who gave you a severe concussion that’s still hurting you to try and get him to reimburse your medical bills

me: bro that was in high school. and an accident. we were playing dodgeball.

insurance: you were a minor and also dodgeballs are. not that big. dude had to be throwing it awfully fast to cause a concussion

me:

me, overthinking: ok. time to bed

#for context #some dude in high school threw a dodgeball straight at my face #caused a bad concussion #still in pain from it #also it fucked up my glasses! a lot! #might have even broken my nose #and it was one of the foam ones too #so the thing was hella light #that was in 2019 #cut to today #insurance sends me a letter like #hey your doctor said that you had a physical injury that was caused by someone? #yeah do you want to track him down and take legal action #and i went into a mild amount of research into dodgeball physics #and now i'm having a panic attack #i probably did the math wrong somewhere #the pain and other medical issues have cost my family and I a lot so #getting reimbursed would be nice #but we were in high school? #and another part of my brain is like #ok that's also assault of a minor #im a wreck #im going to bed #because thinking about this is not the greatest thing for me #if anybody does the math for some reason #tell me and ill probably panic more idk
