Answer #1

yep I was abused by parents (my dad got off in court .. yay for perjury), cut off of health insurance @ 18 (glad I have medicare and medicaid now). Ignored by doctors cant get any service coordination (I have CP and Im Autistic that thats for starters).

I live in a complex with retired folks ( hey its wheelchair accessible) no its not a nursing home lol. I get “its good to see you out”… That makes me so angry, but I think “yeah once a week they let me out of my cage”… oh well… I’ve had a lot of people doubt my abilities for whatever reason (ignorance?). So I advocate and try to help others

Answer #2

yes I have a few times I have been yelled at because I wanted to go to the doctor because my throat was so painful and swollen to the point where I could not eat turns out I had mono

and also I have anxiety and it is pretty bad and a symptom of that is that I get frightend and surprised very easily -like when something jumps out at you and you gasp or jump a little well thats how things always are for me if someone tries to get my attentin or even call my name I gasp or sometimes scream a bit thats how it is even when teacher call on me and well, my dad does not believe I have any problem at all and that I am faking it becuase it is a really big problem for me and he makes it worse so when I jump or get scared he yells at me and tells me to stop I try to explain that I cannot control it and he says that I can and that im doing it for attention and that is reall painful to me because I would not do something like that

okay. im rambling
