Stupid Joints
Oct. 31st, 2011 11:35 amSo I'm about 80% sure I have arthritis. At 22-years-old.
And also I'm in denial about being in chronic pain.
Because to me, my pain isn't severe enough to be considered "chronic", and besides having chronic joint pain that makes it hurt to do basic tasks like clean tables at work and go up stairs is WEAK and STUPID and it shouldn't happen.
So I just keep doing everything even though it hurts because I'm in the "just push through the pain" party because I think that will make it go away or get better.
TL;DR: I'm an idiot who is likely in chronic pain and has arthritis but will just keep on denying it.
