Let people know when you're sick!! 😡

To anyone with a troubled immune system, if you have too much or too little or the right amount in all the wrong places.

I'm sorry that something that is supposed to protect you, isn't doing that. I'm sorry something that is supposed to help and to heal you is hurting you instead. You don't deserve this, and it's okay to be angry.

Stress is linked to autoimmune disorders, and more stress can make them worse. This is true. What is also true is that it isn't your fault that the stress is getting to be too much, and your anger at the situation, at your cells, at your immune symptom triggers, is not what is making you sick and you deserve to feel it.

Anger is stressful, but it's also important and okay to feel. It is better to feel anger than to hate yourself for it; it is also better simply to let yourself feel it when you need to regardless. No qualifications.
