"Admitting" you are disabled. - July 3rd 2021, 06:49 PM
Sometimes I have a hard time admitting that my conditions could be considered a disability. I had accommodations through the disability center in school, and I am only finally getting to a place where I ask for assistance at work. The only thing I asked for was a fan, though, so obviously it wasn't a big ask. If I needed other accommodations I wouldn't even know how to go about it. like just a doctor's note? Sometimes I have a hard time admitting that yes, my mental health and physical health conditions do impact my everyday life and make functioning more difficult. But I never know what steps to take, LOL.

Do you ever get a little bit tired of life
Like you're not really happy but you don't wanna die
Like you're hanging by a thread but you gotta survive
'Cause you gotta survive
