    I'm divorced. A few months ago someone at work asked me about my husband. I laughed and said that I don't have one of those. She was so confused. I've been divorced over 6 years and I've worked in this area of the company for 5.

    I had a coworker who was allergic to exercise, not anaphylactic but he got bad hives. For years he thought it was the family dog causing the reaction then it turned out to be a genuine allergy to exercise (didn't stop him).

    I’ve met one other person before with exercise induced asthma but no one else with my condition. Something as simple as a 5-10min warm up can trigger anaphylaxis, so somedays it’s worth risking others it isn’t and you just play it by ear.

    ...that I'm a (situational) depression and anxiety survivor despite my faith. So many people think that Christians have no business feeling sad or anxious about anything, and then they listen to my story and either openly ridicule me or feel sorry for my loss of faith (which I believe never happened).
