We need to change the health care system and stop them from labeling us mental or over weight when we go to them for a problem! People are being brushed aside, being misdiagnosed, being diagnosed too late with serious medical problems because doctors just want to blame it all on someone's mental illness or their weight! We need to be heard! We need this to change! We need correct care! We need to take a stand against the medical system!

True medical problems don't care about age, race, weight, if you are super active or not. They can happen at anytime in our life. We are the ones who end up suffering not them!

They work for us, we are the reason they get paid! 

We shouldn't be labeled complex, mental, complicated, challenging to treat, crazy among other things.

I was delayed care for over 2 years due to having a mental illness. I had a stroke I was told it was mental and I was making myself mimic it due to my mental illness. Chiari malformation showed up on a mri, I was having so many problems with walking, seeing, speaking, numbness, weakness among a few other things and not one doctor would take me seriously for over 2 years to check it out, I was told to let it go that my anxiety was getting the best of me. One day I yelled and demanded testing with a new doctor who tried to label it mental. I got my testing. Guess what I needed brain surgery for chiari malformation! Because of the delay in care all the problems that started over 2 years ago are permanent from my spinal fluid blockage that my body lacked. Not only do I suffer but so does my family because of how much life has changed from the damage. 

WE NEED CHANGE AND WE NEED IT NOW. IF WE DONT CHANGE IT THINGS WILL ONLY GET WORSE FOR THE NEXT GENERATION.
