@Failuretheo13 Hi, welcome to the Disability Support Community.

You are probably not doing anything wrong at all. But it can be very difficult for people to understand how to help us with our disabilities. It can also be very hard to be patient and not get frustrated when we need help and support. 

What support do you get from your doctors or medical team that is helping you manage your condition?

How have you tried explaining what you need?
