just found out i have scoliosis

ever since i really thought my uneven rib cage was normal like all the others that maybe it was just developing or something lol how dumb, until i saw other people's bare tummies even.

i got bullied for how asymmetric my shoulder blades are, the right was so prominent than the left. could show pics to prove it but i still don't have the courage to do it sorryyy

no matter how hard i tried to get my waist cute the left part would always go offff and that's when i started to get frustrated tyring to figure what was wrong with me but i was too stupid to accept it as a fact i had to live with everyday

for almost 2 decades, i stood far away X-ray's & orthopedics. i was just too scarred to know the truth behind my crooked bones. and i just lived as normal as any other straight spined individual, diving along sea creatures made me felt not so different;wherein i feel most alive

typing this long thread to speak up awareness, especially towards our very own bodies and in less conparison to others. I have been unknowingly living with scoliosis my entire life without completely being fully aware of it maybe because i didn't wanna be labeled with it -

I'm tripping on my words rn, its overwhelming idk how to respond to this. lol. imma just continue this thread as soon as i can uhmm
