How to deal with an unsympathetic partner
I've been dealing with severe sciatica for the last six months. It's ruling my life. I'm frustrated, but my partner is starting to vocally suggest I should just ignore it and get on with my life. I can't even sit at a restaurant for a half hour without squirming in pain.
I feel completely betrayed that they're not being understanding and I'm tempted to leave the relationship. It'll suck being alone with sciatica and I don't know how I'd even move out right now. I just don't want to be with someone who sees me in extreme pain and thinks I'm exaggerating.
