i have a genuine question for anyone that can answer!
how should i best depict a child (in comic form) growing up with chronic illness? with things like chronic pain, fatigue, low/compromised immune system, ect.. how does something like this effect their mood? their ability to form relationships? play? school?
the illness is fictional in nature, but its akin to a type of autoimmune disease, where the body is constantly in a state of attacking itself. are there things you would like to be shown/ better written? any taboos/stereotypes i should be aware of?
i have somewhat of an idea of what not to do, but as someone who didn’t grow up this way, i’d like to gather more concrete answers and opinions!
and finally, when it comes to creating a fictional illness, what things should i keep in mind, if any?

What was your first source of portable music? Walkman? CD player with headphones? MP3 Player? iPod? Phone?
my fucking god these tags aged me 50 years
they’re literally the size of a CD, hen. you can still buy them
presumably anti skip technology has evolved since then and actually reliably works now (if you jolt a cd drive when it’s playing the laser reading it will also jolt around and songs will skip - not useful when walking. anti skip technology is meant to stabilise so it doesn’t happen. very rarely was this actually the fucking case)
you’d carry around a little flip folder of CDs like this in your bag
often containing at least one mixtape cd you burned yourself, or that someone else had made you, with the tracklist written on it in sharpie
common from the late 90s - early/mid 00s when MP3 players and iPods started to take over
if you havent already, you should really check the site out! its such a nice little art site, it gives me many early dA vibes and i love it. plus i actually have a few pictures on there that i havent posted anywhere else yet
