"Shaming people for taking medication for their illness is disgusting," she wrote. "Like it's not hard enough for them to get through a day. You have to add judgement and shame on top of pain, illness and struggle? How about trying understanding."
She added a pair of praying hand emojis to the end of her post and #aiwarrior at the bottom too.
