The way health professionals just decide if you're not in your 60s+, that you can't have any chronic health issues is absolutely wild to me. I talk about joint pain and keep getting met with "just wait till your older" i already have at least one type of arthritis that debilitates me

I actually do not want to think about when im older, i already would actually really prefer i didn't get older. The thought about this getting worse actually is pretty unbearable , can we not???
