Living with Medical Issues: My Story

Hello, I'm Somni short for insomnia. That's my pseudonym. I have a lot of medical issues and am looking for anyone who relates and feel as if they should live in a bubble. Scared not to live but also scared to go to work and be embarrassed.

Your answer

Hi! I saw you get migraines with aura too. That's how I feel about my migraines. Embarrassed. I've had friends think I'm drunk when I have an aura, not believe me when I say I can barely see, etc. Once when I worked in a restaurant kitchen they found me curled up on the floor during close because of a migraine. It's just embarrassing to be seen with symptoms.
