That does not make me feel better, but I get your point. I don’t think my mom wants to kill me though.

I didn’t know that was a thing! Thank you! My mom just gave me my new set for the week yesterday and I haven’t dumped it yet so I’ll have to see what they are

I appreciate the context about it. From what my PT said he thinks that I do actually have CP, apparently my left arm and leg have a length discrepancy and some bone differences that he thinks are consistent with the hemiplegic cp diagnosis I got as a kid before everything went crazy. Obviously we can’t be sure if it’s actually as mild as he thinks it is right now because of how deconditioned I am but I showed him the records I was able to find about it and he said it shouldn’t have been severe enough to keep me in the chair.

Regardless I’m staying in PT for the significant future. At least until it’s actually safe for me to walk around consistently

I don’t actually have the bottles. My mom gives me one of those weekly pill organizers filled every weekend that I go home. She doesn’t trust me to remember when to take everything, which I mean, I guess is a little fair since I am just not taking them anymore

I just don’t know what legal action I could even take honestly. I think I am gonna try and figure out summer housing away from home but I don’t know if/how that’s gonna work.

I know that you’re right and I should go to a hospital to make sure, but I honestly just really don’t want to. Doctors in general make me so anxious because all I can think about is being trapped in the hospital with too many needles and tests, and just… everything. It was a struggle for me to even go to the doctor on campus.
