Of emotions. Of chaos. Of your own damn needs.

I am experiencing a symptom that defies logic, reason, and the laws of science. Classic Thursday.

I was told to ‘just lose weight.’ Unfortunately, my dislocated joints remain unimpressed.

Oh no!!! I wonder why

Thank you for mentioning me 🫶

Doctor: “It’s probably just stress.”
Me: Oh perfect, let me go ahead and unstress all my organs real quick.

Yes! I'm still there.

Me at 18: “I have chronic pain.”
👩‍⚕️ Doctor: “It’s just stress.”
👀 Me at 30…now diagnosed with six rare conditions: “…so about that stress.”

Doctor: Your labs look fine.
Me: Cool, but I just blinked too hard and my shoulder dislocated.
Doctor: Have you tried thinking more positive thoughts?

Me, trying to explain my symptoms:
🎭 “It feels like knives, but also burning, and sometimes like I’m being electrocuted?”
💬 What’s the most ridiculous way you’ve described pain?
