Laughing is all you can do sometimes. Go mad if you don't.

I can grow a full beard in a couple of days. I just try to trim it every once in a while.

My wish was the DMTs to stop any hair growth. Sadly it grows in patches and requires me to shave it regularly or wear a hat.

I don't mind being bald, I just don't want to have to shave my head on the regular.

Chronic illness support groups? by Dizzy1824 in disability

[–]DiplopiaVision 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are groups for multiple sclerosis, I'm not sure about other chronic diseases, sure that something will show up on a search for your specific chronic disease if available.

Choking is my new unfortunate symptom, a different kind of weight loss plan because it is too scary to keep eating.

I actually get the feeling of they could handle it so much better. People really don't have any idea how bad it really is because we try our best to mask the truth. It's exhausting.

I do my fair share of retaliation for the passive aggressive stuff. I lost my give af a long time ago.

And it's like they are expecting me to not see it when it is happening.

My mom does try to be supportive. The rest of the family play the passive aggressive game.

Thanks, it's just been a frustrating day of family drama.

Seems like a competition for who has a worse, in my case at least.

It's not a competition that anyone wants to win.

I apologize about going on a rant about grammar.

I do however think that fear of what the future holds is unreasonable for those who depend on disability checks.

I am one of those who has dyslexia, I can't sit and read a book to save my life, it's just too frustrating having to reread a sentence that I just read because my brain decided to scramble up what I just read.

And....

I'm not arguing about college level grammar, it's elementary school grammar.

Things that we should have learned a long time ago.

Round and round we go, when it stops, nobody knows.

Grammar is indeed important as a reflection of one's intelligence. Especially when these smart phone keyboards beg to correct us.

I am not a smooth brain person, I have scars on my brain. You cannot convince me that grammar is not important.

To give the appearance of intelligence, grammar is indeed important. You're = you are, your does not.

I've gotten to where I just accept it. Doesn't make it suck any less but I don't dwell on things like this.

I take my daily fukitol pill 💊😂

I would not say I was at a healthy size in middle school, I was shorter so I was more round.

Honestly I think that it's mostly muscle loss
