How'd you learn you had heds? What's your favorite book? Favorite tv show?
Hi! It was a weird turn of events! I saw someone on TikTok who talked openly about having hEDS and POTS, and I was interested so did some research into it. She talked about her bendy joints and how she would often have heart rate spikes when she stood or she'd fully pass out. She also talked about chronic pain a little bit. I read that there was a high level of comorbidity with autism and ADHD, and I filed it away for my "that's a cool medical fact to know."
Around the same time I was discovering my Autism and ADHD and working with therapists and clinics and stuff, I talked to my GP about "crunching in my knees." I asked her if it was normal that my knees sounded like a rice krispies treat crackling in a hallway. She looked at me as if I was bonkers and sent me to an orthopedist who diagnosed me with early onset arthritis in my knees. He sent me to PT, and there they did an examination and told me I am hypermobile EVERYWHERE.
It has caused life long pain and issues with my feet. It led to growing pains all growing up. And now it is degenerative, so I'm experiencing new symptoms all the time. I walk with a cane now full time because of issues with balance, and stairs are my nemesis. I can do them, but they can often hurt. Standing for any amount of time leads to burning pain in my lower back. And I have custom orthotic insoles because my feet have incredible issues with pain and I sprain my ankles all the time. I've been having more severe pain and balance issues recently, so I need to acquire a set of forearm crutches before the fall when I need to go back in and teach. I'm hoping to get them in June. They're just expensive as all hell!
I've had a lot of issues with doctors not believing me or misdiagnosing me or undercutting me because they just assume my issues are anxiety or that I just need to lose weight. But I do eventually get diagnoses! That's how I've gotten the official Hypermobile Spectrum Disorder diagnosis (it's hEDS but not OFFICIAL OFFICIAL) and a diagnosis of Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia. Those give me the most physical issues that certainly compound with AuDHD traits!
My current favorite book series is rather long, but it's The Chronicles of St. Mary's series by Jodi Taylor. It's about time travel and broken people and love and duty. I fucking love everything about it! I can't wait for the next book to come out.
My favorite TV show of all time is West Wing, but I also love Breaking Bad passionately.

“But what does Grover bring to the table? He’s just the comedy relief character.” Grover is juggling the role of babysitter, mediator, and emotional manipulator and he cracks jokes too? Give him a BREAK

The other gods: Hades is the king of the dead, he is bad, he was definitely the one who did it all
Hades: hi guys, sorry for the tortuous path it takes to get to my house, would you like some pomegranate juice? A snack?

Grover manipulating ares in that therapy session by pretending to hate kids and rolling his eyes as if he isn't just a single mom working tirelessly to stop his kids from murdering people on accident.
Just everyone thinking he's so peaceful and sweet and it takes 0.00001 seconds to commit psychological warfare with the GOD OF WAR HIMSELF.

forever obsessed with percy being weird. off-putting. strange even. a cryptid maybe. an urban legend if I may. my boy is the son of one of the oldest, most powerful gods, has been in FBI's records since the age of twelve, fought and won two wars against immortal beings, went to hell and back. I think he's allowed to be a little odd.

See THIS is why I trust the writers because the whole point of the deadline passing was so we could SEE Poseidon surrendering for Percy. The show has given Poseidon a more active and loving role in Percys life. The gods pride would never let them surrender to one another. But Poseidon knew his brother wouldn’t spare his son’s life. And he knew the only thing that would spare his son’s life was him surrendering. ALSO FURTHER CEMENTING THAT PERCY IS HIS FAVORITE CHILD! The writers pens this episode>>>
