All my research and i fell into the trap of wondering if we overpathologize, overdiagnose and entertain those who exaggerate and fake.

But thats stupid. I SHOULD KNOW, as a chronically ill person, queer and a POC I know in any other time of history i would cosplay as a straight able-bodied girl because that would be possible for me.

For a moment there I forgot that the reason diagnosis increases is because less people DIE, less people hide. Less people feel that it is better to go without help. And thats a good thing. But im stupid, and i know ill never truly dismiss a patient OTHER TAHN MYSELF. Me? I'm probably making everything up anyway.

The internalized ableism will outlive me I fear

Doctors and general ppl do not care for proper diagnostic procedure LIKE MOTHERFUCKER WHY DUD A DOCTOR DIAGNOSED U W A DIAGNOSIS OF EXCLUSION WITHOUT CHECKING IF U HAD SIMILAR CONDITIONS DO U WANNA DIE

so then I get mad for weeks

Holy this looks and feels right
