I JUST got myself a cane and have been terrified to use it be I can walk without one its just exausting and kills my hip, i needed this. You always know exactly what we need. Thank you, Alex.
thinking about rollators but then i saw the price tags :( i really liked the one where it showed them using a mobility aid around the house and in the kitchen and it reminded me of when i was a kid/tween or something and i would bring a chair into the kitchen so i could stir pasta or peel an onion but i had to stop bc that would get me in trouble. standing up to do all that especially stirring pasta was hell but im still convincing myself i dont need a rollator, especially because so many websites say theyre for senior citizens >:( i could theoretically get one through medicaid if i were diagnosed with something but im not, and even when youre not diagnosed with them the horrors still persist?! im so shocked :O but every dollar is tuition money :P
Rollators are not just for senior citizens, that’s just what was originally the most common age group of people who were using them. If it would benefit you then u can get one regardless of ur age
Fun things i do/did to my cane so someone else gets inspo or can help them feel more confident. I paint mine every few months with acrylic paints. Use a clear coat or a primer first then paint it. Clear coat it a few times to keep it on for longer. I have trans and gender colored friendship bracelets on my loop and have them hanging down. I have pop-its on the part where the loop attaches to the cane. I tie on a strand of ribbon that has flowers hot glued to it and just wrap it around my cane. My friends decorate theirs with lots of stickers. You can get colored rubber ends for your cane. Ive seen people put rinestones on theirs. Have fun with it. Do what makes you happy. Some people name theirs. Hope this helps someone.
yayyy!! ive been using a cane and occasionally a wheelchair for a couple of years now and theyve really helped me :D if youre seeing this and wondering if you could benefit from a mobility aid, please try one!! you dont have to be *entirely unable to get around without one* for it to greatly improve your quality of life!! give it a try if you can :]
thank you so much alex. idk if you saw, but in one of your last arcane comps i was talking about how because of my addison's disease i can't run or do any sport related thing, or how it just flares up in general throughout the day and i sometimes faint, but since then my parents have sat me down and they decided (me included) we're going to get me a cane for when my leg goes out after i faint in emergencies, as this used to happen frequently last year when i was in jrotc for school, and now day by day it gets a little easier to not feel so horrible for having the disease as i used to since i was a child, this video helping included!!! i love watching your tiktok comps, they help a lot during bad days and I just wanted to say thank you again !! much love 🫶🫶
Oh....damn Dude, ive been going back and forth on "what if i dont actually NEED one?" And like 20 thousand other worries about mobility aids and coming to terms with the struggle of figuring out if im actually disabled or not and i was just worried that oh im not disabled or disabled "enough" for one. I dont believe in signs from the universe or shit like that but, ill take this as one, thank you, honestly
been using a cane since i was 13 but here anyway. for the record, if you think you need a mobility aid, you should get one. if a mobility aid will help you, you should get one. there isnt some high bar of entry. you're ok
Recently got some noise cancelling headphones as a disability aid! :3 probably have autism n it really helps, I wish I’d started using them sooner, they are so good for being less overstimulated:p /pos
Alex you are a literal magic worker I was just thinking about this today! 🦖 I’m a person who’s had chronic pain since I was like a preteen. It got worse fall-winter of 2023, and has slowly gotten a bit better over the last year ish. That led me to wondering if I’m just deluding myself into thinking I have chronic pain for attention or as an excuse (fun I know) and it just suuucks. I don’t know how I would convince my parents about trying out a rollator or wheelchair, so I’m kinda at a dead end 🥲 Also I see u sneakyyyy hiding some Arcane in there 🤭
i kinda have some advice for getting a rollator/wheelchair! i somehow managed to get my ma to get me a wheelchair by lecturing her about how awful my pain is 24/7 until she let up. i beleive that chemists sometimes sell rollators, so if you can afford it...
I don’t need mobility aids, but my story doesn’t have as much disabled representation as the other stories I’ve created and I want to fix that while also making it as realistic as I can make it while fitting into a fantasy world :3
i SHOULD be using forearm crutches, or at least a cane, but my mom wont let me get one, or even go to the doctor about my pain bc she doesnt want me to look "too disabled".........what
i have a musculoskeletal disorder (though the doctors arent sure which one and they're honestly being deeply unhelpful but what am i to expect as a black woman in america) that leads to me often having weak/brittle joints and uncontrollable hyper-mobility. they cause me pain almost daily and occasionally my fingers will lock into place and ill have to manually move the joint to bend, although thankfully its usually pretty bearable and i have an assortment of braces and slings and the like. i dislocate things quite easily, and one time my wrist was out of place for two days and my spine was out of place for one within the same week. ive been considering asking a doctor about a cane for days when my knees buckle so much i cant safely walk more than 50 feet. wish me luck on convincing my doctor that im not over exaggerating my issues! i have a job in childcare where i need to stand, sit, and walk around quite often and since the disorder has gotten worse with time, i'm guessing i may need that mobility aid sooner than later! edit: forgot to mention that im on a physical treatment plan but its gotten rescheduled by my doctors TWICE since my original scheduling i made in october for a december appointment
Aaaa!! Thank you for this video :))) I was looking for a compilation like this and you’re my go to channel for compilations (signed, a chronically ill person who uses braces almost every day!!)
i might need a mobility aid but i have a difficult time telling if i'm just being dramatic. i was heavily online during a time of intense fakeclaiming, fake disorder cringe, etc. I think it's just engrained into my head.
Chat if u think u need one .. u probs do 😀 u should def try and see if one will help imposter syndrome makes it hard but if u can benefit that's the important part!!
I was doing really good mobility wise until I went thrifting with my friend and walked too much so now I have to use my wheelchair again :c My school is NOT accessible so I’ve just been missing classes due to not being able to reach them😞😞
Idk if I NEED one tbh. I mean, I find walking difficult often (Due to my hEDS, when I dislocate my kneecap, it takes me about a week or 2 to walk “normally”. I limp a lot and can’t put pressure on or bend that affected knee lol. My right knee specifically SUCKS. Like, that thing is SOOO loose, I can’t walk without fear of it dislocating or subluxating 💀), but other than that? I mean I DO fall over a lot as well, but that’s because I faint easily (POTS). Most of the time, I just wear my knee brace (Which is just a compression sleeve). But like unless that happens, I am fine. I just sit down a lot more than my friends 🤷 Anyway thanks for listening to my rant chat
CHATTTTTTTT5TTTTTTTTT.... I'm no doctor but also STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR Yourself U SHOULDN'T BE IN PAIN plz to stay safe man and use a mobility aid if u think it will help!!!
@ THE CHATTTTTT LOL. I might lowk. I need to convince my parents (Who are very “rub some dirt on it” type of people. BUT this girl in my ward (Mormon like. Commune for that hour) has POTS & uses a plethora of mobility aids depending on the day, and she has said I should look into them. So maybe that might help convince them lol
Hello everyone! Hope you're doing alright, and if not, that's also okay. As 2D said "In the end it'll get better, and if it's not better then it's not the end."(Murdoc and 2D interview for Humanz album 2017) I hope things do get better, like finally getting that mobility aid :) (and sticker bombing it and makingg it look cool af) Have a good day! Also Alex love this comp sm it's very cool :D
I’ve always had back and neck pain and I want to find some kind of aid to help me feel better but I don’t even know what to use but the back pain is so exhausting…
Little vent: Im ment to get orthotics because I have flat feet that have been causing knee pain for years now. As a kid doctors always just told me it was growing pains and there nothing I can do but now I know thats not true. Orthotics are expensive and I fear it would impact my skateboarding so my mum has been putting it off for about a year now and my knee pain is only getting worse, I even had to take days off school or leave early due to pain. I worry about missing more days now im in year 12 and thats not an option anymore. And yet I still second guess my pain and wonder if I complain to much about nothing.
I don’t think i need anything. my knees sometimes hurt a tad if i sit curled up for a while, but that’s probably normal. They have been popping more recently but i think it’s fine. They’ve never given out on me either, idk if the popping means anything tho
Now im really sorry if it rude for me to say this but i really wish my grandpa would take better care of himself. I know he's his ow person but he stumbles around a lot when he walks fast, always want to help and be handy but he doesn't take the time to take care of himself like he never wears a hat and warm boots when its snowing ( TwT) if he doesn't want a cane or smth then i wont force him but it would be nice for him to have so he has something to lean on when he stumbles
Does anyone know if like a wearable brace or medical corset is any good for weakness/fatigue? I have the issue where I just can’t stand up for too long without getting super tired (my joints are wonky and hypermobile. Not painful just causes fatigue) and I’d rather not have to bring a whole contraption with me everywhere
Slight tw for vent ig?? Also arcane spoilers Im so tired of feeling betrayed by my body. Nobody talks about the Greif that comes with being disabled. I watched the first season of arcane before i knew i was disabled and found myself confused why i felt so connected to viktor. Now aftwr watching season two ive knows for a few years, ive gone through the grief of accepting my disability. But thinking about viktor as a character i see so much of that same greif and jealousy that i still somewhat carry. I interpreted viktors jesus era as a way to cope for that feeling. The need to fix everyone else because he knows he cannot fix himself. Its a very interesting character development and i personally felt like it was handled well with the writing and framing.
Yippee! Question for mobility aid users, do you have any specific decorations on your mobility aid? I’ve got a few Care Bears stickers on my cane, and I was able to decorate it with tinsel for the holidays!
@@alexthegender_have you tried rednote/xiaohongshu? a lot of the cool tiktok ppl i see in ur compilations are moving there, i found alluringskull on the app today :D
Will a cane help if you have trouble standing for long periods of time? Because I get really tired and dizzy and have to sit on the floor if I am out of the house.
i’ve had times in my life where i’ve desperately felt like i needed a mobility aid and am now currently in a place with my joints & pain where it is very uncommon that i feel like i need an aid. however, sometimes my knees will get worse again and i feel i need something like a cane to help with my balance. am i justified in trying to get an aid even if the moments when i might benefit from one aren’t super frequent now? i don’t know if it’s enough to warrant an aid but at the same time when it gets bad i feel like it would be helpful
i should note that my pain and joints didn’t just get better on their own, i started wearing orthotic inserts in my shoes, however they only fit in one pair of my shoes so when i’m not wearing them my joints tend to get more painful and shakier, so those are the times i feel an aid could be helpful
does anyone have any tips on talking about possibly getting a cane with my parents? Ive tried before with my mom, but she either brushes me off or gets weird about it, and im lowkey afraid to ask again lol.
Chat I have had a similar problem here I honestly don't have any help other than you aren't alone and potentially trying to buy one yourself? Keeping bringing it up as a serious concern tho might help
@@alexthegender_ im planning to buy it myself, its more just the issue of being "allowed" to, ig? im sorry to hear that you have that problem too tho :,)
I don't need mobility aid but I'm going to watch the comp anhways

Same because its always good to learn about other people :D
I JUST got myself a cane and have been terrified to use it be I can walk without one its just exausting and kills my hip, i needed this. You always know exactly what we need. Thank you, Alex.
thinking about rollators but then i saw the price tags :( i really liked the one where it showed them using a mobility aid around the house and in the kitchen and it reminded me of when i was a kid/tween or something and i would bring a chair into the kitchen so i could stir pasta or peel an onion but i had to stop bc that would get me in trouble. standing up to do all that especially stirring pasta was hell but im still convincing myself i dont need a rollator, especially because so many websites say theyre for senior citizens >:( i could theoretically get one through medicaid if i were diagnosed with something but im not, and even when youre not diagnosed with them the horrors still persist?! im so shocked :O but every dollar is tuition money :P
Rollators are not just for senior citizens, that’s just what was originally the most common age group of people who were using them. If it would benefit you then u can get one regardless of ur age
