Anybody else here physically disabled or have chronic physical

Does chronic pain count?
Worst thing is, spoiler alert, the chronic pain. And that people treat me like a cripple.
Nothing good about it really. Lots of pills maybe.

I have ulcerative colitis. Best thing is the medication (for me atleast) makes almost all my symptoms go away. But when I'm not on medication its miserable and gets progressively worse the longer I go without.
Last year I had a point where I was running to the bathroom 8-16 times a day to shit blood and pus. Truly the robot disease.

oh, OP here.I forgot to say that I have lupus and use a wheelchair, I do get discounts for stuff sometimes (though I usually need them--example, discount on energy bill I run up charging equipment), and the worst is aesthetics--weird rashes, losing hair in patches, getting treated like I'm retarded or helpless

Sure, definitely. Is there anything visibly off about you so people can tell you have it?

Man, I don't envy people with bowel issues. No offense meant. I'm starting to have bladder probs and it is rapidly becoming my least favorite symptom

Its not too bad although I'm just happy I don't have Crohns. Waiting for the day until my insurance doesn't cover meds and then I'll probably just an hero,
