saw a post abt how kids are brutally honest and there was a weird amount of comments abt the “funny” reactions of ppl’s kids to like, seeing disabled exist. hot take but kids calling ppl with burn scars ugly right to their face, screaming in fear at the sight of little people, putting their hands all over service dogs, etc. isn’t funny. teach your kids about disabled ppl so they don’t flip out and make rude comments at the sight of them in public, wtf

(also, not every disabled person is down to answer invasive health questions even if they come from kids, so don’t expect a disabled stranger to always educate your kid for you)

#like im always down to kindly explain my situation to kids but i imagine not every one feels up to and they have that right #actuallydisabled #disability #spoonie #chronicallyill #chronic illness #actuallychronicallyill #disabled #always relieving when i encounter kids who actually know how to be polite to disabled ppl #ableism #not necessarily intentional ableism but nonetheless

When does this get better? When do I come to terms with this new life? When do I stop grieving the past and future? When do I find myself again? Ever?

It's to help with my flare ups, and whenever I get severe pain from my polycystic ovaries.

She bought it for me once she realized how much pain I'm in on a daily basis.

I'm currently in bed, about to take meds and relax. Or try to.

Adjusting to these new meds is a lot. I don't miss drinking, I miss being awake and the social aspect. But my partner and Wife have been helping me see that I was drinking to deal with the pain I've been in.

...which isn't wise to do when you're disabled and have mood disorders.

I'm making moves to improve my situation with their help. But I still feel like a burden. I can't work. I can barely take care of myself.

I just want to do something to help them. They both work so hard.

Does anyone else feel like this?

My plastic surgeon scheduled a semi-urgent MRI for a potential bone infection. I get to the hospital for them to tell me: “you’re already scheduled as an outpatient” as well as THIS HOSPITALS MRI MACHINE IS ACTUALLY BROKEN. IVE BEEN SITTING HERE FOR ALMOST 13 HOURS. I had to take an ambulance as well, it’s now 1:00am. The hospital was nice enough to get me a ride home because I can’t actually afford to get home alone. (1,100$ CREDIT CARD ONLY) no friends no family to take me home. I shouldn’t have to wait over 13 hours to be basically told: McDonald’s ice cream machine broke.

Headed out for Sunday Funday shenanigans. 😘😘😘 The wild child's dad is taking her to the mall, so a free afternoon for me. Not enough sunshine to tan on the patio (which is good, lol, since I'm sunburned!) So I'm gonna run around town causing trouble instead. Hope everyone is having a lovely Sunday, and ends the weekend beautifully. 🧡 #sundayfunday #happyvibes #makelifebeautiful #makeyourownmagic #chronicallyill #chronicillness #chronicallyawesome #beyourownhero #beYOUtiful (at Terrace Heights, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp_qDEvsUam/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

also shout out to one of my doctors for prescribing me a med and being like “oh btw this can cause an allergic reaction in ppl allergic to Penicillin like you are so Watch Out!” uh. couldn’t you have maybe picked a different one then bestie…..the pharmacist was very concerned lol

#i am extremely extremely allergic to penicillin so this will be fun #spoonie #chronicallyill #chronic illness #actuallychronicallyill #disability #actuallydisabled #personal #it isn’t penicillin but is apparently similar enough? i guess? Idk

Maybe we don’t want to just force ourselves to go out anymore because going to that event, holiday, etc. is not only a physical struggle to push through, but a mental struggle we will feel the effects from for days after.

I absolutely hate events because of this. People always say you still need to get out and socialize, but when everything is surrounded by food and alcohol I always end up leaving in a worse mental space then before. Seeing people being able to do the simple things we can’t and wish so hard for just sucks. There’s no sugar coating it. I’d rather stay home in my “normal” then go out and be reminded of just how abnormal my life really is. I also feel more socially awkward then I ever have in my life. I have nothing to add to conversations, I’m not doing anything fun, nothing is “new” with me except more medical bullshit.

I just absolutely dread holidays, parties, or even leaving my home in general anymore. Chronic illness robs us of so much. I wish more people would understand when we say no I can’t come or no I’m not up for that, there are many reasons behind that answer.

Let’s talk money. The National Disability Institute estimates that having one disabled adult in a household requires 28% more income to sustain the SAME standard of living as a household without disability. 28% more. Let that sink in. The reality is that most households with at least one disabled person (be it an adult or a child) make LESS than similar households without disability. #BVD #MCAS #EDS #POTS #Spoonie #SpoonieLife #SpoonieSupport #ChronicallyIll #Disabled #DisabilityJustice #Inclusion #ADA https://www.instagram.com/p/Crf3c_PO6MR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
