Diabetic Cyborg Life 9/20: A Lack of Acceptance

The last few months have shown me that my progressive multiple sclerosis, or MS, makes for more mental issues than before. Simple things are not as simple anymore. My ability to accept that people are a certain way about things is not as easy now.

Formerly, I would accept that someone was overly into something and move on with things and that would be okay. Now, my acceptance seems not to come to me so easily. Being able to manage a personality difference in someone was something I once prided myself on.

Today, I seem to not be able to move past somethings that don’t really matter anymore. This is one of many things now that I must try and make it a point something I did with ease before. The acceptance of personality quirks is the height of my new inability to tolerate things I once was okay with.

I know this is a small issue, but it does bug the **** out of me that I can’t do such a simple thing anymore.

This is my life with a disability, and I have no choice but to accept it now.
