this is exactly what talking to basically anyone about your struggles as a disabled person feels like;
“oh but havent you tried yoga” “I think I know some essential oils that could help you” “You need to workout more to make your body strong” (Me who has a mitochondrial/energy production disease 😭) “Trust me if you eat quinoa and supplements vitamins youll be back to health in no time”
Can’t people, just… offer sympathy. Why are they so entrenched with the idea they will know the magical solution to an illness 80 years of research hasn’t found a useful treatment or management strategy for yet. As if I hadn’t spent months in denial trying out bullshit treatments when I first became ill and lost much of my body’s functioning.
ME/CFS must be hard to cope with. As a person without it, I also sometimes have pretty bad fatigue but it’s mostly my lifestyle. Key difference is, if I get some exercise, I might be a bit tired at first but then I’ll actually have MORE energy. This little trick is a life saver. I don’t know how I’d survive if I couldn’t do that.
You definitely have my sympathy and I hope they crack it soon.
Sympathy is communism in America, repugnicunts literally call it a sin
This is not a land of empathy and has not been for a very long time
Well… I don’t live in the US. I live in Europe.
Getting all five fingers in is a solid try. Would’ve gotten extra credit if the thumb was in the correct side.
How can you tell which way her hand is facing?
Thumbs face up, not down.
Aye, unless your hands are facing out
Wasn’t there a new season coming out?

It’s an older meme, but it checks out.
