  Thanks, I try. I know what it's like to have subjective symptoms of something larger and medically very real dismissed by others to the point where more permanent damage is done than was ever necessary. While I don't wish that experience on anyone, it sadly seems almost a necessary experience for many people in order to be able to engage others with compassion.

  I wish there were more empathy, especially in lemmy.world comments. I had hoped better for the fediverse than the current patterns of hostility in social media towards others with different life experiences.
