the struggle of being physically disabled and psychotic. am I really experiencing this or is it a delusion? people tell me there's nothing wrong with me and I rely on others for an accurate depiction of reality. then why do I hurt so bad?

Not all conditions disable everyone
Not all people with a disability are disabled to the same extent
No one can tell you how you choose to cope with or handle your disability

I can't wear tight pants or any really rough fabric on my legs anymore because I have some sensory nerve damage in both of them. I miss dressing alternative, in tight black jeans and all my punk stuff but its literally excruciating to do so.
Does anyone have any recommendations on pants to buy? People who have neuropathy and/or nerve damage this question for you, other sensory issue havers please dont derail.

Last night I was making tamagoyaki for sushi and whined about how lately every time I crack eggs I seem to have to fish out eggshell pieces.
Claire: You know why that's happening, right?
Me: ... no?
Claire: You have... you have neuropathy in your dominant hand. Your fine motor skills aren't as good so you're cracking the eggs differently.
Me: ???????
Claire: Did you really not realize that?
Me: No I just thought it was a personal failing.
Anyway I love my wife @unforth for pointing out the obvious because uuuuuuuh yeahhhhh.

When you hobble out to your car after the MRI, turn on the radio, and the very first words you hear are, "When your legs don't work like they used to before..." 😐
RUDE, ED SHEERAN. SO RUDE.

Being chronically ill is crazy because I’m essentially just living with multiple warning lights on my dashboard lit up but if an otherwise able bodied person suddenly had their body’s check engine light on they’d go into a coma

can we talk about the kids from yesterday and how it's helped me so much with coming to terms with my disability.
like. tomorrow i have another audiologist appointment.
and they're going to tell me that i'm getting worse, i know.
but that's ok.
and kids from yesterday has really helped me.
knowing that i can't live forever and that i'll never hear forever, but knowing that i can make a difference no matter what.
and mcr in general taught me that.
mcr taught me that i can be like this, that i can be disabled and it doesn't matter.
that i can still be me and i can still be loved.
and yes, my friends love me but mcr taught me that i truly belong.

Do not call my chronic migraines and other chronic pain physical disabilities if you are not also going to call my ADHD and bipolar physical disabilities.
Do not call my ADHD and bipolar neurodivergence and neurological disabilities if you are not also going to call my chronic migraines a neurodivergence, and that and other chronic pain neurological disabilities.
_
Edit: do not call me neurodivergent at all. I’m a full-bodymind crip, including being disabled and insane and overlap of these. No divisions.

Is it normal as an autistic person to not realise when you're becoming overwhelmed like i feel a little uncomfortable then when I get home WHAM! it hits me like a truck. It happens to me all the time, and I can't find anything about it online. Everyone else seems to know when they get overwhelmed when I don't.

That awkward neuropathy moment where one entire limb itches uncontrollably and severely enough that it can't be ignored and so you try to scratch or rub it to make it feel better but WATCH OUT because anything touching it feels like fire.
Ok maybe this was a bit too hyperspecific but I'd like to trade in my right leg please.
