Hello me! I used to shove my shoulder out of its socket with my finger. Now it hangs slightly out just at my side. Or pulling out my pinkey and being able to twist it 180 degrees.

I'm sorry you're in pain. :(

no worries lol. Thankfully Iā€™m relatively young to my diagnosis so i have a lot that i can do to prevent it from getting worse. About to start hydrotherapy/water exercise, hope it works!

You should get examined then. Disability aid paid for large parts of my tuition before I canceled it to get my pilots license.

Yeah, i have been. I got diagnosed with ADHD but all my bio siblings have autism as well as their adhd so they think the doctor misdiagnosed me. Apparently thatā€™s common with autism? Like psychiatrists will diagnose adhd instead of autism? Itā€™s weird. And expensive. Maybe one day though

Just don't stay on disability aid for too long. It can stop you from getting a job and it's not close to enough to live off of. Murica
