Have you ever had it where sometimes older folks are completely SHOCKED that you will have to take medication for the rest of your life at such a young age?

      Yes. And the sad reality is that many of these medications are hard on your body, and there isn’t much data available of the long term affects. I find that much older people usually say the least helpful things about chronic illness in young people 😬

      Yes. I also have a permanent disability parking tag and people look at me like I'm insane every time I park in handicap parking. It's especially annoying when they invalidate your illness just because they don't "see" it.

      My parents and grandparents are like this… kinda sucks.
