or warn me or worry that I won't believe them or won't understand because I can't see what's going on inside their bodies.
Definitely having a parent who suffers from chronic illness means the understanding has basically been built into you.

I have never once, not in the entire 12 years I've been sick, ever said I was sick when I wasn't to get out of something.
I knew if I did it even once, I'd sow doubt forever
And it makes me want to tear my hair out. I'm dealing with this situation in my own life right now and it is exhausting how someone will erode and destroy trust for literally no reason by lying over dumb shit! The truth wouldn't have been a problem!
But now U lied for nothing,
It is such infuriating & exhausting behavior. It drains you of energy, of trust, of a sense of safety.
Sending you a hug.
It's just destroying relationships for absolutely no reason
I've discovered that some people will assume you are manipulative because *they* are manipulative, so they can't imagine you acting any differently
