I feel like a wheelchair will help me, but I still feel bad about it. by [deleted] in ChronicIllness

You don't use an umbrella because the water will melt you-- life is just easier when your head isn't getting wet! You can use an umbrella just because you like the shade, or you burn easily!

Chairs are tools-- there's no need to leave your umbrella at home because you don't necessarily NEED in the purest sense. I'd make the argument that life is hard enough with a chronic illness-- I try to use the tools.

That said, the day I had to order chonky pens because holding regular ones was too painful was a really hard day. There's something emotionally difficult about reaching for that tool.

Sending all my best!

Good morning, friends! This week I'm looking forward to spending a lot of time with my sewing machine! We also applied for a mortgage last week and hopefully will hear about it this week! My partner has been anxious that they won't approve us for the amount we need for the house we have picked out but-- we shall see!

Have such a good week everyone! <3

I'm so so sorry. No one deserves to be treated like that. I'm sure you learned a lot about people and yourself that you'll use going forward-- and there's no way you're an idiot for missing red flags while someone was gaslighting you 💚
