#whatilearnttodayis altitude most likely effects my body. I was in newalla for a week and my body temp issues were better but as soon as I got home they came back. The humdity and everything else is very similar except the altitude. #spoonie #chronicillness #invisibleillness #chronicallydetermined #mybodyhatesme #mysterydianosis #spooniestrong #butyoudontloolsick #dysautonomia #POTS #fibromyalgia https://www.instagram.com/p/BoSzEuEHs_r/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1p703fyhjtr5w

Can’t quite express how hard it is to constantly have people patronise you, and doubt you, over your disability. Never ceases to amaze me how able-bodied / neurotypicals find a way to belittle - to constantly put you down, and then act shocked when you stand up for yourself and explain (yet again), that there are limits to what you can do. It’s not “being lazy” to say “I cannot do that”. It is accepting reality. 

Not every boundary in life is there to be pushed, and honestly, people need to stop this whole “the sky is the limit” bullshit. It is deeply ableist, and damaging, because they think, then, that it is acceptable to essentially harass disabled folks and tell them “you need to be doing more!”, “why aren’t you doing this, this and this!”, “it is just your attitude that holds you back!”. 

Beyond fed up with ableism. Beyond tired of trying to explain to people who refuse to listen, and who make life harder than it already is.

SERVICE DOG PSA

So today I tripped. Fell flat on my face, it was awful but ultimately harmless. My service dog, however, is trained to go get an adult if I have a seizure, and he assumed this was a seizure (were training him to do more to care for me, but we didn’t learn I had epilepsy until a year after we got him)

I went after him after I had dusten off my jeans and my ego, and I found him trying to get the attention of a very annoyed woman. She was swatting him away and telling him to go away. So I feel like I need to make this heads up

If a service dog without a person approaches you, it means the person is down and in need of help

Don’t get scared, don’t get annoyed, follow the dog! If it had been an emergency situation, I could have vomited and choked, I could have hit my head, I could have had so many things happen to me. We’re going to update his training so if the first person doesn’t cooperate, he moves on, but seriously guys. If what’s-his-face could understand that lassie wanted him to go to the well, you can figure out that a dog in a vest proclaiming it a service dog wants you to follow him

I have an emergency health fundraiser going on. Right now I'm going to have to see my pain Dr and I can't go until I have the money. It's gonna be $345 plus the cost of meds at pharmacy. If you can donate or share I appreciate it! Link in the bio

Any disrespectful planned Parenthood comments will be deleted. Yes I truly need to go there to get my shot so my body can remain in this best possible shape right now. The depo shot has been a life changing med for me. I am on it for medical reasons but even then, who cares it's my body!

Furthering my confidence in letting no one touch me! #endometriosis #endometriosisawareness #spoonie #invisibleillness Also, it has been proven that lupron does NOTHING for endometriosis so it's not worth all the side effects we have heard about including infertility
