I'm glad I found this all out some time ago, following this sentiment has been one of the best decisions I've ever made! A lot of us have limited access to doctors and some of us have doctors who are either negligent, ignorant, discriminatory, or just don't care. So while we wait for the richies to get their shit together, the best thing we can do in the meantime is take care of ourselves. (Btw, when I brush and floss my teeth I use the toilet as a chair, I find it more comfortable (: )
friendly reminder that you don't need any diagnosis or disorder to adapt your routine to accommodate you! sit down in the shower. brush your teeth and wash your face in the shower. bring a chair to the kitchen while you cook. use unscented products. your routine should be built for you.
