Edit: achieved liftoff

I haven’t been in a wheelchair my whole life, but I’ve had debilitating symptoms for all of it. I’ve only been in a wheelchair for a few months after using a Walker for a while. I also have gi issues so I don’t eat normally. I really don’t remember what it’s like to live the way most people do, so here are my questions.

How easy is it to lose your balance?

How hard is it to walk up/down hill? Does walking downhill take any effort?

Do you get dizzy when you exercise for too long?

How bad is Taco Bell really?

How does exercise like running feel?

When you wake up can you just roll out of bed and stand up without falling over?

What is it like to me talking to a person in a wheelchair when you’re standing? Like perspective wise I mean.

Apologies if these questions are silly, I’ve asked people irl and I usually get some variation of “it’s just normal” or “don’t you remember?”
