they really don't prepare you for how much of having a chronic illness is just being angry about it
studies will describe your condition like "profoundly impacts the quality of life" and "dramatically reduces productive capacity" and "debilitating and incapacitating symptoms and worse prognosis" and then tell you that professionals are not often familiar with it and it's often underdiagnosed and recognized at more advanced stages if at all. and they will expect you to not be unfathomably angry about that!
