I am the wimp of the family

[AmIaBabyDragon]

About ten years ago my newish DP said something about me being very slow walking up hills. My DM replied ‘Baby Dragon’s always been slow. You won’t get her to go any faster’
Now ten years later, after only a month on iron tablets, I find I can easily walk briskly up hills and the sensation is familiar.
I’m feeling a bit sad thinking that if my whole family hadn’t convinced me I was basically fat and lazy then maybe I would have realised there was something wrong years ago. They have been saying things like ‘doesn’t like to exert herself’ since I was a teenager.
Is there anything I can do with this realisation - that I’m actually not particularly fat and lazy?

No, you can't do anything only when you see them next time you mention since I had the iron tablet I fell stronger, lighter and actually can easily exercise.
They will come to the conclusion on their own or they don't because they actually have forgotten what they told you.

In any case, the baby dragon is a full dragon that can use her wings and brain now. I wouldn't recommend you to burn them with fire, but you can start to move far from them if they are always making the wrong assumptions and minimising you.

Thanks @Epidote. Yes. I will just enjoy myself walking up hills without pain and try not to ruminate.
