#chronic pain in the ass

[justsomerandomgay]

abled people don’t seem to understand why i try to avoid getting a cold like it’s the plague, like mate im literally chronically ill, i don’t need another illness on top of it!

[impure-as-a-lamb]

genuinely fuck all my family members that made fun and keep making fun of my pain and don’t take me seriously. then something bad happens or i get finally diagnosed and they’re like “omg why didn’t you tell me sooner???” YOU ALWAYS TOLD ME I WAS EXAGGERATING.

Regular reminder that sudden and severe weight loss is a pretty serious sign that something is very, very wrong

This is not a joke but men, if you need to see a doctor see a fucking doctor. There is nothing emasculating or shameful about it and you are never less of a man for doing it. Your pride is not worth your health or life. You aren't weak because you didn't tough something out you're strong for tending to the needs of your body. The mindset that it's weak to seek medical care can have deadly consequences

Yes this includes "embarrassing" issues. An object stuck in your ass because you girlbossed too close to the sun trying to have a good time, not only will any person in the ER tell you they've seen it (and probably worse) but people have died from sepsis because they didn't want a doctor to examine them that way or to have to explain their predicament. Not worth dying over

Another person touching you in a medical setting is not sexual in any way shape or form. It implies nothing about your sexuality. Even if your body reacts in a way you don't want it to (it happens, likely won't but if so they don't think you're a perv or some shit). Malpractice of course exists and often a witness will accompany the doctor for such examinations to keep you safe and ensure you are treated professionally.

Strict laws exist to protect your right to privacy. Anything you say to your doctor stays confidential.

If you are trans your doctor should know this as it can be vital to you receiving proper care. And you are again, no less of a man. Dysphoria can be unbearable and acknowledging your anatomy can be awful for some but sometimes it's just something you need to get through for the sake of your physical health. Also trans or cis or in between there's no such thing as a "girl illness/disability". Get checked for whatever's going on

STIs and UTIs and the likes are not shameful. If Planned Parenthood is an available resource in your area you'll probably find that more comfortable and safe than you expected. And if you're a minor they will allow anyone confidential and typically free care (tell them you have no insurance). It's not just a lady clinic that only does abortions, they do everything from trans care to routine exams and birth control (many also provide free condoms). However many doctors specialize in/treat this shit, see it every day, and sometimes the treatment is so simple and can prevent something so much worse.

i hate how when abled people are sick everyone drops everything for them and feels such sympathy but when chronically ill people are sick or flaring up, no one cares because im supposed to be used to it.

Every chronic pain girly needs laios to motivate them from their office job to take their pain meds

"bright are the stars that shine, dark is the sky, i know this love of mine will never die"

hiromi higuruma is so beatles coded, he listens to "and i love her" while he's on his way to work and probably listens to "michelle" too and is caught up on all his Beatles lore. "good day sunshine" "doctor robert" "here comes the sun" and "a hard days night" are his favorite songs, hands down. a black suit and tie, he cannot get anymore handsome but he does anyways, with his ringo starr-like hooked nose. he slow dances to the songs with you in the living room on a rainy Sunday afternoon. he gazes at you with pure adoration as you hum along with the tunes of his favourite songs, knowing that he's rubbing off on you just a teeny bit

clubbing? whats that? he only knows about playing his vinyl records and tapping his leg to it as he reads a book in his rickety ass chair that squeaks and groans every time he moves in it. "its vintage" he claims but that thing looks like its from the prehistoric era, taking its dying breath, with his butt print imprinted in its rotting foam.

he's probably the type to bake in his free time, which is why when he started dating you, he baked all of your favorite pastries and gave them to you, saying that he was bored so tried his hand at baking and he didnt know that you loved what he made. he's the type to listen to romantic music at any time of the day, whether he's happy or sad or just existing. hes a man of many words but more songs. hes your man in the end of it all

no semester is complete without me missing at least half the classes because my body doesnt work

I truly honestly understand what the hell Ashton was thinking in that moment and cannot find myself to be mad at them. When you spend your life in pain already, there is no threat or fear of more. It's all the same, really. Especially when this way you could use it to help the people you love and, finally, make that pain worthwhile.
