I hate my body. Not because I'm fat ( that doesn't help though) but because I feel 80 years old inside.
People who don't have chronic pain, who have no idea how to even understand chronic pain can (does) look at me and think I'm faking.
I don't understand why anyone would want to fake being disabled. Why would any healthy person want to miss out on everything?!
There is so much I want to do, so much I want to try, so much I want to be a success at and it's a win if I get a shower and comb my own hair in one day.
I was just posting today about how healthy people have no idea what life is like with chronic illness. I'm sitting here today unsure if I have the stomach bug that my hubby had last week, or just a really bad bout of IBS. Of course, he wants me to go the doctor. Why? So they can tell me it's either a stomach bug or IBS - neither of which they can really do anything about?
