Feeling Weird About My Wheelchair Appointment

❤️ i get too in my head and think but am i disabled enough to warrant having one. In my head its for people who cant use legs at all? But when you do use a scooter or aid the difference in suffering makes it click. X

I honestly get it myself. As I use my wheelchair when my pain is too much and when I have longer distances. At first I was scared but once I realized it was a tool to help me. It let me breath easier, unfortunately am still waiting on my custom wheelchair

I can understand anticipation and the other side as well for having to try something new. I was exactly like that when I was in third grade. I can walk, but I use the wheelchair to get around the school faster. I hope everything goes well for you during that time. ❤️

I can understand that, getting a wheelchair raises many complex feelings. I don’t have a specific diagnosis yet and just got fitted for a wheelchair. I only plan on using it for longer distances as well (like theme parks). But my family has conflicting feelings about it so I think that also gives me conflicting feelings. I think it’s important to remember that this is going to help us get places just like any other mobility aid.
