I read your piece because I live with multiple chronic illnesses/disabilities. I consider myself a research geek. This is doubly true where medical/mental health issues are concerned (I wanted to be an MD at one point). Even I have never heard of this before, and it is really quite rare that I hear of a disorder/disability that I’ve never read anything about. So on that note, thank you, both for sharing your story and for educating me (and others) on your condition so that we may be better aware of it and also (hopefully) become better allies.
