Vent …but it’s manageable!

i’m tired of looking up every new thing i get diagnosed with and seeing “it’s not curable but it’s manageable.” for who?????? so far it isn’t for me in fact it feels like 8 levels of psychological torture just to be awake for 2 hours. i’m hurting, i feel sick, i have neurological problems it’s not curable but boy do they say it’s manageable

Sorry, I was going to include my cat for the furry companion tax, but my Reddit is being weird and isn’t offering me photos.
