Ngl watching House for the first time after almost losing my foot and then using a crutch for 5+ years before I did specialised physio for chronic pain is like... Actually I keep feeling like his experience is... Familiar? Believable really. The ups and downs, the link to mental wellbeing, the belief it's gone and the struggle with the pain and with disability becoming a part of your being and how those can and do bite eachother, and the scars always being there to remind you?

I'm not saying the other medical things depicted are realistic, I'm not. I'm no medical expert. But the whole experience he has (minus the vicodin addiction/enabler polycule) resonates with me now, which is... Interesting and unexpected tbh.

#And if I ever need help walking again #Which I presume I will bec I'm young now but I (hopefully) won't always be #I may just get a flame cane for the meme #house md #I know this isn't everyone's experience either #But I do wonder if house would benefit from the therapy I had #(and I know he wouldn't have it bec it requires psychological effort lol)#And yeah I hadn't seen the series in 10 yrs bec I spent a lot of time in hospitals and there was trauma etc #I'm fine now I'm glad I can watch it again #I love this show and I did before and it's just...#Such good storytelling #Yes they're all assholes #That's the point #I love to hate them but they're also not so irredeemable not to appreciate them somehow #Anyway the only thing I appreciate more now is the House/Wilson lol #Just the ship of all time and the show fucking knew it lmao
