I’m glad I saw it, since I very much relate (or used to, I can no longer physically get out much, but more importantly I cut ties with the kind of people in the last panel lol)
Glad you enjoyed it! I didn’t think to include the link originally and mostly wanted to make sure OP wasn’t trying to troubleshoot what’s likely a platform specific issue 😅
Yeah, some people have a tough time understanding and empathizing with those with smaller social batteries in general. I would imagine that introducing a physical ailment of some sort would make that problem doubly as bad.
And yeah, especially with invisible disabilities (or those that start as such, anyway, like chronic pain and neurological conditions), it’s really hard to get people to understand or believe you just can’t… But then you also get to learn who your real friends and family are, so while it sucks to go through it, it is an extremely effective filter for shit people… ¯\(ツ)/¯
