Just because someone also has chronic illness doesn’t mean they automatically are a good person based on one shared experience. A good reminder for sure.

This kinda thinking (that people inside your community can’t be bad people) is so damaging and it’s everywhere now. People can be bad. Yes, even if you have something in common with them. Actually, you can be a bad person too, as a treat

I’m a bad person, I have arthritis and 3 other chronic illnesses. I’m a cynic and I break hearts all the time.

How do you have all that time to break hearts with chronic illness? The most I am able to do is to slut it up lol

I know it is and I am working on my reframing this line of thinking in therapy because I know it’s problematic. As a trans person that grew up in a conservative area, I feel like seeing other trans people made me feel so thrilled and less alone that I forgot that those folks are also humans and not everyone is going to work well with each other. I know this applies to other communities and I need to remember this.
