I have two autoimmune diseases. IBD and PSC. i was hospitalized for months wwhen i was 10 and went thru many surgeries, and still am going thru annual surgeries and monthly bloodwork and stuff. its so frustrating... and it doesnt help the first time i came out about it to my closest group of friens then, they laughed in my face and used it as blackmail to make me do inappropriate things and watch 18+ shows with them. we were 11-12 by the way.
