have any of y’all been stuck at that point where you’re not disabled enough to get help and accommodations but you are disabled enough that you struggle with a lot of stuff? i found out i might be there and that’s almost worse than it getting worse

also they’ve been telling me for months they’re pretty sure it’s gonna reach the point where i’m considered pretty disabled and now they’re saying maybe not but i’ve been working in therapy for months to make peace with it and now im in a super weird headspace about it

people also act like doctors saying they can maybe stop the progression is the greatest news ever like it doesn’t mean another three months of tests and appointments and stuff like at this point i just want to be done. i just want to know what’s wrong and if it means i need to restructure my life so be it im already far gone enough that my dreams are impossible it doesn’t matter

If you ask for it can your doctors give you documentation to apply? Or honestly at my school I just uploaded some mychart notes. It’s better to have them and not need them.

and the damage that’s already been done is irreversible and it’s causing me a lot of issues but i’m just below the threshold to be able to access a lot of accommodation stuff but, even if it were to stop progressing today, i’m still disabled
