Do you think this is a lot, health wise?

[ThisAmberNewt]

All NHS diagnosed, not self diagnosis.

Autism, ADHD, OCD, depression, anxiety, Underactive thyroid, hashimotos disease, psoriasis and palmoplantar pustular psoriasis.

Also have chronic low iron and vitamin absorbsion issues due to prior gastro surgery.

I am constantly exhausted and sometimes I'm made out to be exaggerating when I just can't carry on with the day and when I point out I have a lot of issues its sort of a 'get on with it' attitude.

Any combination of those is enough to make you feel rotten, but all together?

Whoever has the 'get on with it' attitude is being unsympathetic at best, and downright callous at worst.

I just feel so rubbish all the time and keep needing naps and feel like such a lazy person :(

I do sympathise and totally understand how others do not get it sometimes. I have a severe form of Ehlers Danlos syndrome, in remission from sarcoma, rectal prolapse surgery, 26 tumours removed from my uterus, arterial thoracic outlet syndrome that nearly killed me and now my knee/ spine is playing up. I have just gone deaf in one ear due to Ehlers Danlos. I have had 16 surgeries in five years to save my life, and I am as exhausted as you can imagine. Tumours removed three times from my mouth have left a lot of scar tissue. Thyroid is underactive, low iron, psoriasis, polycystic ovaries and gilberts syndrome are metabolic hell. A surgeon paralysed my left hand and arm in botched operation repairing my arteries, and so I have a left hand clawed and with dystonia so it shakes a lot. The right hand had cancer so I now have nerve damage from the operations to salvage it. Clawed toes as well due to neurological complications of Ehlers Danlos and neurofibromatosis (I get lots of internal tumours and autism traits). All while raising children with neurodiversity as a single parent, and running a business. I cannot take pain killers as allergic or sensitive to all of them. Some days my feet just bleed through the nail bed and skin, and I fall over a lot. I have to put a mask on and battle on through it. On free days, I am mostly in bed recovering and not wanting to deal with the outside world very much. On work days, I just have to plough through it. I don't even bother telling other people about my aches and pains, as I am aware they won't understand, or will feel uncomfortable. Some people stare at my hands, some ask what has happened, some comment on my gait or manner of speaking and I find it very rude. I cannot give you tips on how to deal with this, but I can tell you that you are not alone in feeling disgruntled by how little regard some people have towards those with medical conditions.
