You've had the thought, "If you can do something, you should be able to do so without:
- Wincing
- Moaning
- Crying
- Throwing up
- Wheezing
- Popping
- Aching
- Screaming
- Crumpling
- Breathing like a Lamaze coach
- Sighing
- Collapsing
- Feeling like that's the end of your day right there
- Wishing you were someone else
- Hoping it won't stay like that forever
- Limping
- Losing your balance
- Falling on your face
- Falling on your butt
- Cramping
- Seizing
- Leaning on someone for support
- Hoping no one sees you like this
- Slipping
- Believing that this will be the last time you'll ever do so
- Lying in bed for a week afterward
- Asking someone to help you undo what you did
- Running to the bathroom
- Sleeping for 3 days
- Running out of energy
- Risking your life
- Needing therapy later
- Wishing someone else was there to help you
The sad truth is, being disabled means being dependent for something others do without thinking twice about. It's just the nature of life. No one is completely independent and if you need help, welcome to the human race. Don't be afraid to ask for help.
