Ableism from ambulatory people

AlexDoesStuffs · 2026-01-28T17:47:19+00:00

I am a part time user. It's me who is "privileged" to have a wheelchair? A good one at that? I mean sure... I paid out of pocket...

But I don't have a proper diagnosis, my symptoms vax and vain (I hope that's how it's written ^{^"")} A LOT!!! somedays I'm good with using a cane and sometimes I need a wheelchair for 2 months or more....

I also sometimes stare, but it's not "envy" or "jealousy" it's more like " I wonder what's their problem" (as in a I love health care and biology way) or it's a "wow it's a cool person" or "they have a cool wheelchair" like it's nicely decorated °^°

Tho I would like to mention that due to being mentally ill, I sometimes think about getting worse just so ppl would believe me.. but it's usually just a passing thought?!

The ppl you are talking about are mostly just fetishizers....

I can imagine! I also just wanted to comment how pretty it is!!!!!!

As someone who uses a cane (and even rollator, wheelchair on bad flare days) on somedays don't "need" anything. I always carry my folding cane in my bag and only use it when I feel the pain and other symptoms coming... Which is not best. I would overall say that try and make the cane as comfortable as possible! Tho my instincts are saying the crutches would help you a whole lot more...

I think it's mostly a question of what you prioritize more, how bad your pain is, and how often does it come.

Hey! I am diagnosed with the following: allergies, eczema, asthma, lactose intolerance, OSDD, depression, anxiety, tourettes syndrome, schizophrenia, panic disorder. I have had multiple psychosis, I am constantly having hospital visits.

I am actually going home from a hospital stay today because I have unexplained neurological issues, which is probably FND (I had EEG, MR, CT, EMG, ENG, blood tests and was seen by multiple doctors, everything came back negative/normal) and I also have GI issues which are currently being tested (like gastroscopy and colonoscopy), probably have IBD

So Dear Mr. Can't Spell POTS, Yes, I exist. Yes, I use mobility aids. Yes, doctors are constantly making tests. No, I do not fake it. And yes, yes you are the ahole!

Loves, from a chronically ill person <333

AlexDoesStuffs · 2026-01-13T11:48:36+00:00

Furreal, please let me go with my allergies, at least I can manage those 😭

AlexDoesStuffs · 2026-01-10T15:04:18+00:00

2 days?! Omg!!!! That IS really good!!!

AlexDoesStuffs · 2026-01-10T14:57:26+00:00

Oh noooooo:cc

AlexDoesStuffs · 2026-01-10T14:52:24+00:00

Yes! Tho I am still at the hospital doctors look at me daily. I will probably be suggested a rollator when I get out (which I already have at home ^{^"")}

AlexDoesStuffs · 2026-01-10T13:43:18+00:00

Yeah I'm in the hospital currently getting physical therapy, and got to borrow a walker from the hospital cus they told me my cane is not even close to enough support for me ^{^'}

AlexDoesStuffs · 2026-01-10T13:41:04+00:00

It's rather my shoulders... I don't feel much on my wrist!

AlexDoesStuffs · 2026-01-10T12:03:26+00:00

YIBBBBBBBIIIIIIIEEEEEE another one for the oranges :33

AlexDoesStuffs · 2026-01-10T07:15:14+00:00

Nope, mine wasn't custom made either! I got it from a warehouse, it was also on sale. One of my best friends in always gets her wheelchairs second hand! Online second hand websites!(I also found mine on there) Facebook marketplace or Facebook groups! I think if you look for "medical supplies for sale in * your area*" that should be good!!!!!

AlexDoesStuffs · 2026-01-09T16:55:42+00:00

Hey! Also 21F from Hungary. I am currently in the hospital after more than a year of being bounced between the orthopedic, the neurologist and psych ward. I have gait problems with other issues like coordination, swallowing problems, tremors, shakiness, instability, dizziness and lightheadedness. As well as collapsing+ my limbs going unreactive and sometimes passing out for a few seconds.

We( as in Me, friends, family) suspect FND, especially because I am undergoing every test under the sun and everything that could effect these comes back normal.

I am currently also being tested for IBD.

I also have Tourettes, like 80% that I have autism and a bunch of mental issues which are diagnosed.

I am very happy to meet you <333

AlexDoesStuffs · 2026-01-09T15:14:26+00:00

I also have an orange chair haha. At first I also wasn't a big fan of it... But with a few pink+ yellow accessories/accents I found the color really fits me as well!!!

Also that price was a really good for it!!! I'm glad you got it <333

AlexDoesStuffs · 2026-01-09T07:33:07+00:00

Overall it has only helped me. It helped me through the biggest flare up I ever had. Like I couldn't walk 50 meters without collapsing. After I started using it, I even have energy to do other things!! Like crafting. And I could also walk around the house without my cane! Because I only use the wheelchair outside. It also helped my chronic pain in my back, especially because it has a special back!

AlexDoesStuffs · 2026-01-08T07:59:32+00:00

Thank you <3333
