@belasco.bsky.socialI slept really well last night…
…according to the various apps & devices that track my sleep - how I feel I slept is a whole other matter

@erinryanhey.bsky.socialIt ultimately comes down to lazy writing that perpetuates stereotypes. If we want to have more disabled characters on screen, writers must get curious about the lived experiences of people with disabilities.
@belasco.bsky.socialTo the shock of absolutely no one (except maybe the allergist I saw yesterday,) my labs show I’m not allergic to things I knew I wasn’t allergic to & my tryptase was where it should be since I wasn’t mid-reaction.
Thanks to my horrible BCBS exchange insurance the bill was “only” $400.

@rivalconga.bsky.socialIt is OCD Awareness Week, in the middle of Dysautonomia Awareness Month, and I couldn't be more aware of either if I tried.
The OCD so loves to blame me for having POTS, triggering POTS... Perhaps I trigger my POTS on purpose, because I'm lazy?
Thanks, OCD.

@kamianya.bsky.socialI think one of the hardest things about some chronic conditions, including mine, is accepting that you’ll always be in pain. There’s no getting rid of it, just getting it as manageable as possible.
The worst is when you’re constantly having new pain, so you can never quite get used to it…
