I hate my hEDS and just Eds in general. My legs have been hurting more and so have my back since July. My mom won’t listen and I can bearly survive school because of all the stairs. I want to use a mobility aid for it and I’m gonna try to tell her tommrow :)

      I hope the talk with her went well! there is no shame in using mobility aides.

      I use platform crutches and AFO braces. It was hard to get my mom to understand because she doesn’t want to accept that I’m disabled. Just keep advocating for tourself

      I struggle with my Eds pain all of the time, I need some relief. I can’t work because of it.

      I’m sorry you’re going through this it’s rough. Maybe try looking up you tube videos of people who have Eds and use mobility aids to help you’re parents understand

      Does your school have an elevator? I had to use it on my bad days when I was in school
