You have to wonder whether people actually look at these things after they make them, or even while they're making them.

If you're someone that can't wear a mask this thread is a right shitefest now.
I'd really, really love not to have the panic disorder that makes it fucking horrible. (and I did try for a few weeks)
I'm also someone that has a pretty thick skin usually but this has really got to me.

I was in the same situation as you. I could never wear a mask without going into a coughing fit after a minute or two, and I have yet to hear of someone being exempt from wearing a mask over here in Japan. Last year I did a spiro-breathing-metre-thing test and was diagnosed with copd and asthma with the lung function of a 94 year old male, despite only being 45 years old. I was fucked when covid came along, because everyone in Japan was wearing a mask, yet I was physically unable to. What I (my wife) did was make a number of masks out of material, starting out at almost mesh, and gradually building up to about the same as a cloth mask. I slowely got used to wearing a mask, and am now able to go speed shopping, roughly 10 minutes, wearing a proper mask.
Anyway, this is not a dig at you in any way, just my experience.
As a side note, I had a copd lung flare-up last week, and the irony of having to put on a mask, to see my pulmonologist because I could not breathe was not lost on me.

Look out, he's got a gnu!
As if we hadn't suffered enough through 2020.
But when you're a person that can't and you are in an environment where mask wearing is the norm you know that everyone is looking at you thinking you're just one of those cunts.
I even wear a lanyard, people still presume you’re just one of them, I got shit from a cashier at a pharmacy the other day while wearing it.
I get what this thread is about but it'd be wonderful if the message that there are lots of people really struggling with masks was put out there more, not just this narrative that folk without them on are just Trump-type idiots.

Yes totally understand. I thought I wouldn't be able to wear one at first so was somewhat concerned.
My neighbour has severe brittle asthma, went on the Lung Foundation UK website and printed out a card which she hangs round her neck now Should I wear a face covering? - British Lung Foundation
She filled in the form with her name and why she can't wear a mask and they printed it out and sent it to her.
It's good and clear, might be worth adding to the lanyard? .

I have the official government one now in a clip-on visitors badge type thing, you can turn it round for mean people as the government have included a snippy passive aggressive message on the back...
