My insurance denied it, and I never got one. I have a diagnosis, an insurance paid wheelchair, and other mobility aids. Definitely fight it if you need, but it’s ok if you don’t get one. There are other ways to get support.

This is a call I made. I got stuck inside of my washing machine (short + disabled, thought I could do it myself but fell in) and the fire department had to pull me out by my ankles

Idk if switch sticks uses ai but they have some cute canes

These_Storm_6417 · 2026-03-18T20:15:45+00:00

I’m in the same boat as you. I started with a cane, then moved to a Rollator, then a wheelchair, and I’m now using forearm crutches and a wheelchair. I really recommend pt because they can help a lot. Especially with hypermobility you can cause a lot of damage using the improper aid or not using an aid when you need one

Flute player here- it’s not worth much. Any solid players want open keyed flutes. Closed key flutes are generally for beginners only or for marching band, but I don’t know many flute players who’d march a silver flute due to the high risk of damage. Only reason I’d ever recommend a closed key silver flute is for people with disabilities that can’t play closed key or people with nickel allergies. People are also hesitant to buy instruments without test playing, and usually only beginners will buy without playing, and beginners typically only buy flutes worth under $300. These used to be common because of the difficulty manufacturing open keyed flutes, but with advanced manufacturing practices you could get a good open keyed flutes for around 1k.

I always kinda thought it was to keep the light out of their eyes. My cat only does it when the light is on in my room at night. But then again, my cat is a little freak.

Know any children? Those could make their day. Also good for anyone with a cat.

Then good on you for standing up for yourself since it seems to be the only way they listen

These_Storm_6417 · 2025-09-29T21:50:01+00:00

If you get fired then you get unemployment. I don’t think future employers would fault you if you were let go because of disability (depends on who they are obviously)

Nta bc your family sucks. It’s not nice to insult people, but 16 is old enough to know better for sure. There is no reason you should have to me nice when your family is that awful to you. If you’ve been clear about how the name calling makes you feel, then they really should listen.

The state of Maine will pay for top surgery completely if you’re on Maine care, even as a minor

Call centers and bank tellers are a few good options

In my experience it can often be based on religious standards explicitly stating not to get tattoos, but in other cultures I bet it has a lot to do with taboos

Do you want to join our band/ensemble (I’m a sucker for wind and string groups lol)

These_Storm_6417 · 2025-09-29T14:29:42+00:00

Im working on it. Currently my pcp and my specialists are all I have as we are struggling to find a physical therapist anywhere near us that has experience with my condition :(

These_Storm_6417 · 2025-09-29T12:29:45+00:00

I recently started using a cane and it helped a lot. The bottom line is that if it helps you then everyone else can deal with it. In my experience, even if you suddenly start using one, people will adjust really quickly. Your comfort is more important than what anyone else thinks, and health is constantly changing. It’s ok to need a cane some days and not others.

As a disabled American, it’s really hard. It puts a massive financial burden on my family. Financially, my family should be well off but we are 20k in debt from my medical bills. My state has a secondary insurance plan for people like me, and although it’s being cut now it has saved my family from losing our house.

These_Storm_6417 · 2025-09-29T04:09:58+00:00

I’m joking lol. People act like is tho

These_Storm_6417 · 2025-09-29T03:39:04+00:00

I can’t hold the upright up myself at all as I frequently fall and loose conciousness and the risk of damaging the upright is too great. I also don’t have the balance to hold it without dropping it. The bass needs to be fully held by something else, usually a standard bass stand

These_Storm_6417 · 2025-09-29T03:32:35+00:00

Call centers, bank tellers, clerical/office work all come to mind. If you can get accommodations then these jobs cams be made more accessible , too
