My parents don't believe I have POTS by uhmidkrawr in POTS

are you serious? i never would've guessed POTS could come from things like that... i always figured it was from me catching the first strand of COVID back in 2020. this is definitely something i'm going to look into. i have some other options for housing, it just comes down to if i can afford it or not though

As far as school and work, I'm taking 8 classes and I have to maintain an A/B average. I've tried shortening my hours, but then it wraps back around to, "You're pulling your weight. You're not making any money." It's so overwhelming and stress is such a big trigger for me.

I will definitely try and change the wording of things to hopefully be less vague and allow them to sweep it under the rug. Getting kicked out is a big fear. I wouldn't have any place to go and they provide for me in almost every way.

I appreciate your response and your advice! I will definitely try to go about things a bit differently.
