I had an appointment today (after a year and a half at school) with dissability services. I went in once before but the guy somewhat wigged me out and worry about backlash from my profs. The person I talked to today was great and seemed to know about celiac and cc and everything. She was really nice and talked to me about what it has been like for me w/ celiac, and how hard it is to be a student and to deal with this. Also about why I didn't register before and my problems I'm having with my department. Also we planned out how to deal with it when I have mywork . It was really helpful and the person was sooooo nice. We are meeting again in 1.5 months to see how everything is going. Yay for me.

That's great, googley--I am glad things are working out for you, and you had the good fortune to deal with someone informed and empathetic. Keep going forward and all the best to you.
Thanks for this!

Yay for you! Asking for the support is the hardest first step, I hope the rest of your academic journey is a lot more smooth
