everytime I have to repeat my symptoms to a different doctor I feel like it’s a courtroom style cross analysis waiting for me to trip up
Y'know what's REALLY messed up? The fact that I am MORE afraid of going to the ER and not being taken seriously than I am of potentially DYING because I didn't go when I actually, really needed to? Like?
I can’t believe a bunch of men were like “actually, women have it easier when it comes to mental health because everyone already assumes you are weak, irrational, crazy, and stupid 🥺” and a significant amount of feminists were like oh shit good point
got my kidney results back. i have nephrotic syndrome! doctors r arguing the cause. some r saying lupus podocytopathy. some r saying minimal change disease. some r saying class V lupus nephritis. treatment is the same regardless of what it is (STEROIDS my worst fear). But i hope my nephrologist says it’s just due to the systemic lupus erythematous. pls pls pls pls
This might be a bit of a Hot Take™, but not every post discussing the lived experiences of disabled/chronically ill people needs to be followed by “mentally ill people too!” As someone who suffers from both, there are differences. And, regardless, not everything has to be about you. Give people the space to talk about themselves.
Believing Amber didn’t take a special shrewd/ savvy brilliance u just had to not hate women and not be desperate for conspiracies against them
IM FUVKING DRUNK god
I die from suffocation for a little while every single time I am confronted with the plethora of regrets of my past.
