Fed-up...

[shelly144]

Hi there, I am not normally a person to moan. This last few weeks I have come too the stage that I am fed up trying to please everyone around me except for my mum who understands. I would do anything for anyone even when I am crippled in pain. Only for my little girl I really don't think my life would be worth living for... Except for my mum nobody else understands the impact this disease has on you physically and mentally. How do I get through this?? Hope someone out there has words of wisdom to make me feel better or how to deal with this. Thanks ladies X

Hi firstly I just want you to know your not alone, there are times where I just think it's me against the world and no one is listening to me and they just think I'm being a drama queen with the pain but most importantly how I feel mentally. Whether that is not wanting to get out of bed or seeing people and socialising and keeping myself to myself. The annoying thing is if someone doesn't go through it they don't even try to understand half of what we go through. And the worse thing is when people say "but you look good". But just know that you always end up getting through this no matter how hard some days can be. Your strong enough to get through this. These are a couple of quotes I read through that help. I hope they help you.

"Note to self- everytime you were convinced you couldn't go on, you did".

"The bravest thing you ever did was continuing your life when you wanted to die".

"Be gentle with yourself your doing the best you can".

Good luck x
