But with HIV treatment, being forced to stop your medication—however briefly—can often result in a virus mutation that renders that treatment infective.

Reposted by Dialectical Dryad🌸Bibi🌸♿ @bibiblossoms.bsky.social · 19/09/2023It's really scary to have to ask someone for help in general. Especially when you're disabled and need accommodations. The expectation that disabled people have to ask and beg for help is messed up. Help should already be available from the beginning to anyone that needs it. 181
