Of all my allergies, mosquitoes are my least favorite, least favorite to explain, least favorite to deal with, least favorite in every aspect, they make the whole area swell, they feel like fire on my skin, and after five or more I get so lethargic

Like my eyes have literally been swollen shut by a mosquito bite to the face but when I tell someone they just think I’m being dramatic and whiny

No this is actually soooo real and I’m also a magnet for these stupid things. I’ll be outside with a bunch of people and be the ONLY ONE getting bit

Yes this exactly “everyone gets itchy when a mosquito bites them, everyone gets a bump” okay but I’m not talking about just itchy, I am also in pain and not only that, the swelling isn’t just a bump, I have a hard knot on my leg the size of a baseball because I got four mosquito bites on the same area

Wait… that isn’t normal? 😳 Fuuuu- I thought I was just overreacting- are you telling me I might genuinely be allergic? I got rock hard bumps about the size of half a golf ball when I get just one bite-
