Hello everyone,
How are you doing today?
How many times do you hear "But you don't look sick"? Many struggle to comprehend that people may suffer from invisible illnesses. At Carenity, many people are live with conditions that have "invisible" symptoms.
What about you? Have you experienced these types of comments? Do people understand your situation? Do you tell your coworkers, friends? How do you make it through the day living in pain that people don't understand?
I'll tag a few members to see if they would like to share an experience.
