While I don't fully understand your situation (I'm not in your shoes), I know a lot of the same troubles/feelings you feel. I'm 24 and bedridden and have to use a wheelchair when I go to the doctor.. I get lots of looks and comments/questions such as “it must be fun to lay around all day and do nothing”, “you sure don't act like you have a lot of pain”, and “getting up and exercising will do more good than taking all those pills”. Keep your chin up and keep pressing through... it doesn't matter what all the strangers think.. I hope you have a good support system of family and friends.. but if not, there are so many wonderful people on this website. Take care of yourself, okay?

My name is Sarah and I am 25 years old. I have a lot of chronic health problems. Peripheral neuropathy and POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) keep me bedridden the majority of the time. I also struggle with degenerative disc disease, disc desiccation, spondylolisthesis, arthritis, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) with insulin resistance, allergies, sound sensitivities, and other health problems.
