Some doctors absolutely suck. Some doctors will drag you on endlessly. Some doctors will waste your money. Some doctors don’t care enough about you to help because you’re not an “easy fix”.
Some doctors save your life. Some doctors listen. Some doctors do tests that are actually helpful. Some doctors don’t do it just for the money. Some doctors care.
Some doctors care.
It’s hard to find them, but I promise you; they exist.
For every shitty doctor who doesn’t listen, who makes you feel crazy and insecure, there’s one who wants to help. Who will try there absolute hardest to help you; and they will listen.

Help a disabled person get a mobility aid!
I don't need financial help. I just need advice. I have a fibromyalgia. Not professionally diagnosed, because of the classic 'you're too young!' stigma + medical trauma I have two points I want to make:
1: Should I get a cane or a crutch?
I have been researching each, but i truly don't know what is better!
2: How should I convince my mother?
My mother has only recently found out about my pains after I worked up enough courage to ask her. I feel that, if I bring this up, she'll brush it off, or tell me it's nothing. She has literally found out this morning.
And, yes, she is that type of mum.

Conversations that have definitely happened at Titans Tower
“No way, humans don’t move like that. Not unless there’s something really wrong with them.”
“Wow, I think that’s the meanest way anyone’s ever said ‘Dude, I think you have a connective tissue disorder,’ without using the word freak.”
“How long have you been standing there?!”
“The answer is ‘yes,’ by the way. All the best contortionists do.”
“What?! Yes what?!?”
“Yes, I can pull the skin on my neck up over my mouth.”
“DUDE, WHAT THE FUCK?!”

Hi there folks! My name is Orion [He/Him/His]
I am:
• A physically disabled teen (chronic pain, fatigue, and possible fibeomyalgia)
• Neurodivergent (autistic)
• Hard of hearing
• Queer
• Super awesome!
I currently use one mobility aid, a cane, but am looking into forearm crutches and/or a wheelchair.
I utilize this blog to post about my experiences as a disabled teen, reblog things relating to my experiences, and post things to hopefully uplift other disabled people.
here are some little things about my blog, including a DNI/INT list!!
Tumblr media
this blog is a QUEER FRIENDLY place!!
i myself am queer (FtM and gay T4T), so if that is not something you appreciate, this blog may not be for you!
EVERYONE is welcome here!
any race religion belief, you name it, anyone is welcome here except for those who fall under things listed on my DNI!
I use Tone Tags!
if you don’t understand them/know what they are, or if you just want a list of them, don’t be afraid to DM me!
Tumblr media
DNI LIST
• Homophobes/Transphobes/Anybody against the Queer community.
• Racist/Skinhead/N@zi/Anything related to and/or agreeing with these ideals.
• Ableist, against self diagnosis, or anybody who believes disabilities are not real/cannot apply to young people.
• Bullies/Harassers.
• Overall ONLY negative people. While it’s so super okay to be negative sometimes, if that’s ALL you post about/comment/etc, please leave it off my blog or do not follow/interact with me!
Tumblr media
INT LIST
• Queer people!
• Other disabled folks of any age!
• Neurodivergent people!
• Respectful neurotypical people!

I'm so fucking sick of feeling SICK EVERY TIME I EAT. IM SO FUCKING SICK OF BEING TOLD THAT ILL GET BETTER IF I FUCKING EXERCISE AND DRINK WATER WHEN THATS NOT HOW IT FUCKING WORKS. I am sixteen years old, this illness has put me in a wheelchair and I want to try to heal from a fucking eating disorder but this illness makes me feel sick every FUCKING TIME I EAT. MY BODY IS DOING NOTHING BUT WORK AGAINST ME WHILE IM TRYING TO NOT BREAKDOWN. I just want to be able to eat and I want food to stop being scary.
