Or The Lack Of It Certainly Does - Tumblr Posts

One weird comorbidity of EDS is actually autism! People with EDS are six or seven times more likely to also have autism!

I have basically no access to care at this point because I live in hell (florida), but would *like* to see someone eventually to look into EDS and comorbidities…wtf do I do? I have no idea how to get anyone to take me seriously and I have an incredibly hard time not completely shutting down during appointments because of medical trauma and being autistic; at this point I’m thinking about making a binder with symptoms (and make a section for each area of my body, past diagnoses, research articles, etc.) but I don’t know. I just want to be taken seriously, and that’s assuming I can even get care. Right now I’m stuck with a fucking dick of an NP just because I need *someone* to prescribe my psych meds. (He also prescribed my T, which he can no longer do at this point because of FL’s new laws…he’s fighting that but I think I just may go off T at this point because I don’t really trust this man at all; I know what I’m doing with my psych meds because I’ve been on them for 6 years but need someone I feel safe with to help with my HRT.)
