I never realized just how isolating being out of work because of disability is as a young adult. I don't want to be around other adults because they'll ask me about work and I'll have to be a huge fucking bummer by ashamedly explaining that I currently feel too awful all the time to function. It's sad and humiliating and makes me scared that everyone just thinks I'm lazy and a failure. Especially because the issues I'm dealing with now aren't visible ones.

#It wasn't quite this bad when I was younger and would miss school due to disability. People didn't ask.#This year has been my first major health decline in adulthood #I'm laying in bed completely exhausted listening to guests downstairs laugh and socialize and play games #And I'm sad that I'm too tired and unwilling to have the work talk while I already feel bad to play board games with them #Put me down like a dog tbh #My latest bloodwork better show something fixable. Please god.
