Aw - @outlander and @Fluttershy1
I understand and I believe both of you - I went through the same thing when I was a young woman - I told my mother how sick I was - finally - and she said she knew - really - I asked her how and she said "You come inside and your face is grey and you go and lie down"
To this day I wonder about this and how lucky I was to finally get my father's attention - I was seriously ill
And I feel for both of you so much - Outlander - I know - and I wonder about your mother - she really does need your help with managing her life - she would not manage if you didn't pick up the slack for her so often - but we both know she is a bit strange and "sighs" - and I do feel for you
And CandyDipper - this is such a hard thing when you are young and live at home and no one takes any notice. I have been there and I really don't know what to suggest - I gather you do have support services that are not available during the lock-down.
I don't know how old your are but you must be over 18 and therefore able to access medical care yourself - so I suggest you do - it makes life so hard to be ill and not to have your family believe you - and when you are young it is hard to take charge yourself.
We doubt ourselves when people don't believe what we are saying - I wonder why people disbelieve our symptoms - do they believe they will just go away? - I don't know
I have read back on this thread and know you feel really bad right now but keep posting - and we can - as a forum - do our best to support you
And I do believe you - after all - and as a group - why would we not?
Sending my best thoughts
Dec
