What Disorders, Disabilties or Problems Physically or Mentally?

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), ADHD, Dyspraxia & Asthma

Anemia, Repetitive Strain Injury, Arthritis and mild Social Anxiety

Oh and I've had breathing problems for a few months now but I don't know what it is so I'm off to the doctors tomorrow so they can tell me what the **** is wrong woo

I'm deficient in vitamins b10 and b12 and am borderline anaemic so I faint a lot. My red blood cells are larger than they should be so I'm not allowed to donate blood. I have hypermobility which is essentially being double jointed but it is no fun I have injuries so easily such as dislocations. I have also suffered with bullimia and am proud to say I am a survivor, shall not be defeated :-)

Just back problem. Pulled my back out when I was 14 and it has never been the same

ADHD

no physical/medical issues, though should probably have them from my awful lifestyle. only mental issue i seem to have is a stutter problem.

Idk I think I have social anxiety or something.

I also might be CRAZY, but thats a different story!

(Just Kidding about being Crazy, just Concerned and Aware.)

i normally have to run to bathrooms during the day if it's time to take another because i'd never do it in public, it's embarrassing and disgusting
it's ruined a lot of things for me like if i have bruised quite bad some days i don't enjoy taking my top off in front of partners etc
i'm not sure whether it turns them off or not but it definitely turns me off so i'd rather just hide it away

mentally i think i'm alright
tapped in the head like everyone else is on this forum

I hear you! I have type 1 diabetes and was on the 4 shots a day, I always used to run off to the bathroom to do my insulin and I used to hate it. I mentioned it to my nurse and she put me forward to get an Insulin pump. I've had my pump for a little over a year now and its the best thing ever. No more injections, just a tiny, painless cannula under the skin that I change every other day. Ask your nurse, they are really difficult to get but well worth the fight! I always used to hide my diabetes for the same reason, but I think nowadays people are more educated, and now i'm older... I don't really care what people think :)

I don't think I have anything wrong with me. The closest I got was being misdiagnosed a heart murmur or something? My mum wasn't very happy.

Although, I do have 2 lazy eyes, but you can't really tell unless I take my glasses off and rub them. However, if you see any pictures of me in the sun I tend to close my left eye as I believe too much light gets into it. Never done anything about it, and my optician hasn't really mentioned it before. I almost had to wear an eye patch when I was a child too.

Edit: Googling that I believe I may have 'Discomfort Glare'

'Discomfort glare is an immediate occurrence and arises from light sources or luminaires whose luminance is greater than the eye can adapt to. It can also become noticeable after a period of time.'

nothin rong wiv mi at all ;D eye am a lucki gal x

I've been treated for depression and test anxiety before. Very glad I have finished with Uni, though. My glands used to get swollen and I would break out in rashes and feel just awful before exams. Certainly wasn't a walk in the park, but things are much better for me these days :)
