It's weird how different people treat you as your chronic illness progresses.
Friends comfortably joking with eachother.
Family inviting you to all the events.
Strangers walking past you politely.
To:
Friends uncomfortably laughing and watching their words carefully.
Family waiting for you to ask about events instead, and usually offering alternatives of you coming.
Constantly being asked if you need help
To:
Friends disappearing because the situation is too uncomfortable for them.
Family avoiding you.
Always being helped without being asked.
