I've just joined the group.
I have an invisible illness, ME/chronic fatigue, and since I was deemed sick it has taken me a while to get used to the term that I'm disabled !
I've been suffering with this condition for most of my life, shame it can't be detected more easily as it would have made things a lot easier !
I think I use most of my limited energy trying to stay positive
