The problem with being chronically ill is that when you become more sick, with more symptoms, people do not understand why its so upsetting.
“But weren’t you in pain before?”. Yes but this is a new pain that I haven’t dealt with before.
“I thought you already had stomach problems?”. Yes but this is a new symptom of it that scares me.
“Arent you used to this by now?”. No, and I never will be.
Symptoms that have been had for months or years are hard enough to manage in the first place. Developing a new one is scary, and trying to find ways to cope while still juggling everything else is even more so. We are allowed to be upset at our symptoms progressing. It doesn’t mean it wasn’t bad before. It just means now its bad in another way we arent familiar with. And that sucks.
