STORY STARTER
Write a story about a character who is ill, trying to achieve something they can easily do when well.
This character could have any illness, but remember how hard simple tasks sometimes seem even with the smallest of ailments!
I don’t know the last time I felt normal
I am not sure
The last time
I felt
_Normal_
Matter of fact
what is
_normal_
anyway?
I am always in pain
Thoughts never stop
going through my brain
It never STOPS
My mind and my body
they ache
they creak
they scream for mercy
What is _normal_?
Is is calm?
Is it quiet?
Is it nice?
I really want to know
what _normal_ feels like
because i dont know
the last time i felt _normal_
Not since I was diagnosed with diabetes
at 7
but no one understands
that i didnt cause it
No one gets
that sugar
wasnt the issue
and that i have a dead organ inside
I havent felt normal
not since I was diagnosed
with POTS
at 14
Not since
I was diagnosed with
Anxiety
at 10
Not since I was diagnosed
with Adhd
and OCD
at 11
Not since my body
starting hating me
even though
I already hate myself
I dont know what _normal_ feels like
ever since normal
started to feel like
nothing at all
