oh. well.

Oh, hai college.

THIS.
this is why i registered with the center for disabilities at my school, thank you to the counselor who let me know this was an option.
my professors get letters at the beginning of the semester notifying them of my status…i’m not sure what the letters say exactly, but basically i can ask for extensions, extra time on exams, and sometimes i get a note-taker for some classes.
if this is an option at your school, GO FOR IT. it reduces my stress so much to know that i can contact my professors and tell them i need an extension because i had a rough week and i have the official backing of the disabilities center.
it’s harder when working with fellow students, though. especially when you’re friends with some of them, it hurts more to think that i’m seen as a lazy liar. but i remind myself that my shit is REAL and i don’t need them to agree with me for it to still be REAL. they can think that i’m taking advantage of my illnesses to cut slack, but THEY DON’T KNOW MY LIFE.
be your best and most aggressive advocate. take space. it’s yours. you are entitled to it.

^^ things i wish i’d read in 2005.
