I think that people don’t understand how hard things are for us sometimes. I push through, and get it done, and that seems to give people even less empathy for the struggle that I face on a daily basis. Expectation and entitlement really are the opposite of empathy and understanding. It would be cool if there was a translator or if I could speak their language, and put things in terms that others could understand perfectly. But maybe it’s enough to have community and kindred spirits who go through struggles that are in some ways similar, if not identical. Anyhow, I read your post and wish you the best of luck with facing this problem. It’s not easy.
