Ugh. Me too. Do people actually believe you ? People tell me it's "all in my head" (lol I guess literally it is) and that I should just "try harder and get over it". Sometimes it sucks having an invisible disability.
My instructor at school thought he knew better, wouldn't give me my disability accommodations (partly to get back at his colleague, my disability helper) I then failed the course, lost my student loans, got them back a year later after filing a human rights complaint, forcing me in to the work force and into the catch 22 of making too much to qualify for loans but not enough to pay for school. Now I have 2 years of a degree I can't use, can't continue and a mountain of debt. Yay.
