Sometimes I get jealous of people with more visible illnesses than my own because people take their health problems more seriously. Like, maybe my parents would listen to me if I needed a wheelchair. Maybe my teachers would take me seriously if I had a service dog. But because I appear to be perfectly healthy on a day to day basis, people think I’m exaggerating my symptoms or that my CF is somehow “less severe” than other people. I am thankful for my relative health and not being dependent on aids, but some days I just wish I was a little sicker so that people would listen to me when I tell them I don’t feel well.
