Hi to anyone out there

I am a 22 y/o cane user with Fibromyalgia and I think I'm going to have to start using a wheelchair just because I'm just feeling more and more tired and in pain every second but I'm afraid. Guys I'm so afraid. I'm afraid of my new doctor not believing me (I moved recently) I'm afraid of friends thinking I'm faking or pitying me (I already got the saucer eyes and awwwws when I busted out with a cane). I'm afraid of society thinking I'm faking and calling me out if I stand at all, bc I can walk a little bit it just hurts badly when I do (and I have bad anxiety as it is). Fear rules my life at the moment and I was wondering if any of you lovely people have any advice? What helped you when you became more visibly disabled or just dealing with unwanted attention and questions from ableds? Much love, Angel.

My Story Anniversary

“Ten years ago today,

I was sent to a far off place,

Where they did not know of healthy,

And no one was considered wealthy,

They sent me up to the fourth floor,

With the letters 4C 8 written on my door,

They came in one by one, then two, by two,

A whole bunch came in before I knew,

But why were they interested in me?

What possibly could it be?

Their faces were stunned and shocked,

Then they stepped outside to talk,

They came back in and started to begin.

Explaining my case,

I soon began to think I was a whole new race,

Different and confused,

I barely knew,

I soon got depressed,

Felt like I didn't belong with the rest,

It seemed as just yesterday,

I was able to play,

I was just a bird in the sky,

Until a hunter came by,

He shot me down,

After that my emotions all ended with a frown,

I wanted to soar, I wanted to fly,

All thought about was how much I wanted to die,

In the last 10 years nothing much has changed,

In fact everything is still the same,

I still don’t want to be here,

And I tend to make that clear,

I know my story happened for a reason,

So here I am telling it, season after season”

How amazing is this shoot by @joonglume There seems to be a lot of stigima aroubd young people with disabilities & society seems to assume chronically ill people aren't also sexual beings & that generalisation just isn't true, so I love how Joon, a fellow spoonie, has mixed pinup style with chronically ill life, in this photo 😍 I only just discovered her but I highly recommend you check her out. #Repost @joonglume for @nakid.mag #Disabled #ChronicallyIll #Dysautonomia #YoungAndSick #Musician #Pinup #Vintage #Retro #Style #Mood https://www.instagram.com/p/CDyiskdhlAd/?igshid=hczmun9atc8s
