Does anybody else with an invisible disability get fed up of hearing their own voice over and over again explaining your disability?

Hi @roland:
I can empathize. I don't get asked too often about my visible disability anymore, but I used to a lot when I was younger. Now I think people see me as older and aren't really intrigued anymore.
How do you deal with it?0 -
am fed up of people not believing I have an illness because it is invisible!!0

Well don't explain then? I only explain to those who I absolutely have to.0

Yes both my daughter and I have an invisabie disability (EDS)
Especially when we use the blue badge. We get a few judgemental looks0
