Actually saw someone here the other day saying, "I am disabled and joined the boycott. If I can, you can get off your ass and do it." Ugh. She probably had a car.
I wouldn’t tell others to do it, but I thought this guy was full of lies, we both had adult onset epilepsy, and he told me he just stopped taking his antidepressants and his seizures stopped. My antidepressants weren’t helping and only giving more side effects. I’m still depressed, no seizures since
Lex you could have a different kind of depression that antidepressants would not help. You may want to see a psychiatrist and get a good evaluation to ensure you’re on the right medications and have the right diagnosis.
I’ve seen many psychiatrists! I’ve been on over 45 antidepressants, mood stabilizers, antipsychotics, et cetera. I have a LOT wrong with me. Seems like anything I take just exacerbates something else. I’m glad certain things work for others, right now I’m doing spravato and seeing a mid therapist
I have! PTSD, depression, anxiety, ocd, schizoaffective disorder, adhd, autism, BPD. That’s just the mental stuff. I’m doing my best with the least. Constantly grieving. But thank you!
This is insulting and pisses me off. No one knows how another feels or what they are able or not able to do. I can't stand people like that. They are insufferable twats.
My dad used to tell me inspirational tales about my uncle with #asthma, whom my grandfather required to play a sport in high school anyway. It was so "inspiring," as a child with asthma myself, to hear how he'd lie on the ground gasping for air after completing a footrace. 🙄
Don't get me wrong but many parents who grew up in the post-war era had a very different perception, especially with the emotions and needs of their own children.
I had often heard "don't be a baby, get over it" from my parents when I was in need of support. They weren't intentionally...

I still can't understand why so many ppl are making a competion out of illnesses. And if, I sure don't want to win.
All it did was make me despair at the futility of ever making him understand what it felt like to wonder if I'd ever inhale again.

Sadly, it doesn't diminish the harm they wrought.
