Thanks for sharing this, Casira!

As you said in the article, we have a tendency to moralize health and wellness to the point that people simply refuse to believe that we can't "just fix it". I can't imagine how irritating it must be to live with something almost your whole life just for someone who has no clue what you're going through to act as if they have the magic answer brought to you by a 20 second Google Search.

Back when I was growing up with severe acne, the thing I hated the most was the phrase "Have you tried washing your face?". As if this was some revolutionary idea and that my skin was simply dirty? FOH
