I think A LOT about my life before diagnosis. Taking the elevator & social disapproval etc. People shamed me & *I* shamed me. I now assume that anyone using anything that LOOKS like accommodations just... needs it. They may not know they have a disability, but they still live with disability.

So many friendships didn't survive the diagnosis. Ironically, getting treatment helped me to feel better and do more!
Some ghosted, others faded and stopped inviting me to things, and others got TOO in my face, treating me like an ongoing tragedy to pity.
Tip: just ask pwd how to show up 4 them

And I'm not saying that's ok. In a better world I wouldn't have to do that. But we don't live in that world ... yet.

What I wish people understood is that the stuff they take off work for? I go to work with that every. single. day.
Written as a person who did my weekly report and emails w/ an IV in my arm with headphones on to drown out all the hospital noise. Because that's a thing I do that's normal for me. 🙄
