Hello disabled comrades! Sorry the mega is late again. I hope we’re all weathering the COVID surge as best as we can.
As always, we ask that in order to participate in the weekly megathread, one self-identifies as some form of disabled, which is broadly defined in the community sidebar:
“Disability” is an umbrella term which encompasses physical disabilities, emotional/psychiatric disabilities, neurodivergence, intellectual/developmental disabilities, sensory disabilities, invisible disabilities, and more. You do not have to have an official diagnosis to consider yourself disabled.
Mask up, love one another, and stay alive for one more week.
I know a few people who’re in the same boat as you are, I have such an insane amount of respect for all of you fighting with the meds. I hope that one day both you and I, and all our fellow thyroid-and-pancreas-meds-needing-people will have comfortable doses of medication that don’t fuck with our brains or bodies anymore than the diseases do. Thank you for your reply, comrade
Thanks. I hope we actually get fully functional replacement parts that work perfectly. But I don’t see that happening in my lifetime, at least not soon enough to make a worthwhile difference to my life.
I don’t hold out much hope either, but who knows, maybe we’ll get lucky.
Maybe in our next lives we’ll have perfect health to make up for this.
