Hannah Hilgeman is a contributor to the online health community The Mighty. She writes about her physical disability: postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), her mental health disability: borderline personality disorder (BPD), and life at the intersection of these two chronic conditions.

In clear and openly honest writing she describes her daily challenges, especially the emotional ones, of living with two disabling disorders, often with the assistance of her therapy companion dog, Winnie.

This post, like her other ones provides a deeply personal take on facing the challenges she experiences everyday.
