People assume I'm an "attention seeker" when I speak about my health but that's not the case. I speak because I am open about my health and I won't hide it or feel ashamed about it. Most don't try to get to know me like the real me and ask about my life or health. I appear fine to most but people truly don't know the struggles I deal with or what it's like to live my life. We all have struggles and someone will always have it worse but it doesn't mean I can't express my emotions about my health because I legit have the right to do so. I have a 3 ring binder full of medical papers etc from battling to have tests done and approve medicines for me and all that stuff regarding health stuff and that is the side people don't know about or can't see since they're not in my life like that. People tell me "oh be glad you just have that so at least it's not cancer." Yes and trust I'm glad because cancer is horrible and I won't say what I deal with is on the same level of cancer because it's not but it's definitely on a different level and not a walk in the park either. People don't walk in my shoes so can't expect people to understand because you can't until it happens to you but I'd like to think people just have compassion for others regardless of what you know or don't. I would never wish my health on anyone not even anyone I couldn't stand because no one deserve the nightmare I live. So all I can say is be kind to all because we all have our struggles. ♡
