Me, a chronic pain sufferer when fatigue:

probably one of the most annoying and dogshit takes i see more often than id like to. i hate complaining how much mental and emotional labor it has been to do all this paperwork and do it accurately and swiftly and their response is, "well can you blame them?" admittedly im not the idea guy who comes up with a better process for this shit but certainly, certainly someone could make it friendly to us folks who barely have the means to take a fucking shower. i just spent 3 hours filling out paperwork that asked me to fill out 1) information they have admitted to me they already fucking have and 2) justifying whats so wrong with me that i deserve special attention.

do not tell me you understand this process being so rough is literally killing disabled folks and then defend it against a hypothetical straw man to be wary of in the same breath. people with real, recordable disabilities are getting denied access to this help and you think someone who DOESN'T have miles of medical records to prove said disability is going through the time, energy, and years it takes to fight for it? you really fucking think someone cares that much about getting government support that barely funds jack shit and all?

Like yes my stomach hurts, my arm hurts, my ears hurt, im getting a headache again and that happens everyday so no biggie, but sometimes it would be nice to be comforted and acknolwedged a little (in a way that isnt undermining like an eyeroll) that everything hurts and that shouldnt be happening
