“When I was twelve years old I was diagnosed with joint hyper-mobility syndrome: a breakdown of the connective tissue in my body, causing my joints to dislocate and my body to hurt constantly. Since then I've gone through medications and treatments to improve my life, and spent time bound to a wheelchair. I struggle to find and keep work because of the excruciating pain I'm in constantly, and this caused mental illness; to the point where I suffered a breakdown & branded "useless" into my own arm”.
