I met an EMT who didn’t know what several of my diagnoses were and I had to explain them so I wouldn’t catch any poor medical treatment at the hospital

Yes. I feel sad that no one understands. But how could I expect them to? I don’t even understand. I was supposed to start a chronic illness support group tonight but it got cancelled because too many people are sick. Which…is kind of amusing. But now it won’t start until may. I was really looking forward to it. I just feel so alone.

it's sooo annoying when people don't understand because they don't know how much pain you are in every single day! so glad someone else can relate to me🤗
