Guest ItsEm Posted August 13 Report Posted August 13 This is my first day on this website, and while I have yet to interact with anyone fully, this club has my attention. Someone in this group understands the polarizing feelings I experience. Wanting so desperately to experience someone who isn’t weird after learning of the illnesses I have, yet never feeling worthy of it. The past few years have been a battle, filing for disability and gaining one doctor to every two friends lost. I found myself alone and stuck in bed, so I bought my first stuffie to keep me company. Having the constant pressure to advocate for myself, even while everyone else dismissed me, made me sink further and further into a world that felt safe. Everyone here has a special place in my heart already, because without speaking to anyone, I never anticipated feeling so seen. I fully joined this forum with the expectation that I would be an outcast. But instead of isolation, I think I just found inclusion. This club doesn’t appear incredibly active, but I hope that changes, because I want to hear everyone’s stories.
tressygirl1119 Posted August 13 Report Posted August 13 hiii friend! reading ur post, i felt like i was reading something i wrote! i'm someone who suffers from a malady of illnesses/disabilities that has often felt like an outcast. that feeling of gaining a doctor for every two friends lost is one i know all too well. i'm so happy that you were able to find comfort in your stuffy in those moments! they can be so isolating and lonely and sad feeling. i'm happy to be able to say though, that there are ppl out there who will love you exactly as you are, illnesses and quirks and all, because i've been fortunate enough to experience that. they can be really hard to find, unfortunately, but my goodness they're out there and they're worth finding. i hope you continue to find comfort and connection here like i have. pls know i'm happy to connect more if you want a fellow disabled person to talk to. i also identify as a little, so if you want someone to discuss that stuff with, happy to as well! i'm fairly new to the DDlg scene myself, so i'm not all that experienced, but i certainly know a lot about learning about that side of myself and all the fun (and not-so-fun) feels that come with it. no pressure tho, ofc! i am just some random internet stranger after all teehee anywho, see ya around! 😁💖
