One of the worst parts of living with chronic illness is that it’s nearly impossible to know when something acute is happening
When you live your life high on the pain scale, when you normalize constant exhaustion & suffering, you learn to dismiss things that ableds never would or could 🧵

Being chronically ill means existing in a body that doesn’t function, living a life others can’t understand, suffering nearly 24/7 while being constantly told you’re not good enough.
No matter what you do, it’ll never be enough because disabled people are seen as less than. 🧵
