Resilience of Wattle

[ging04]

I’d just like to say to everyone, please stay strong and keep your head up. You are not alone! And here’s an image of a resilient wattle for us all. <3 <3

I’ve just turned 18 and i’m waiting on a diagnosis, i’ve been suffering for over a year now, since i was 16. It’s gotten worse over the last few months so i decided to keep a journal where i just include how i’m feeling and any progress i get in the investigation as i feel that’s easier than talking to people.

I’m 6 months in to a relationship with my boyfriend. He’s so supportive but we struggle to have personal “special” time together due to my constant pain. Which makes me feel awful and guilty even though he doesn’t mind…

I have awful pains 24/7 in my abdomen/sides/back/groin/thighs… I can’t have intercourse but when i do it causes me to bleed and almost paralysis’ me for hours.. I’m passing gas loads but i’m always scared it’s not just gonna be a fart.. I’m constantly weeing but it’s starting to hurt more and more each time… I feel horrible in myself and i try to put on a brave face but it’s just becoming too much for me

Nothing the doctors give me help and the zapain they gave me just knocks me out which doesn’t help with college or work.

I start uni in September and i’m terrified to move out and not have my mum around especially in my worst moments. I’m not moving far but she isn’t gonna be just upstairs if i need her :/…

I’ve just started using CBD oil (all legal) as it helps a few family friends with their aches and pains. I have noticed a difference but it’s not a big enough difference.

This may be a bit of a long winded post but sometimes i do just feel alone and it’s difficult to talk to people who don’t understand what i’m going through I’m not a big emotion talker as it is but i just thought maybe writing this post may help… and hopeful bring some of you some hope with the wattles which would make me feel much happier as i find it a lot easier to help others rather than focus on what’s going on with me.. I guess its worth a try.

Hope you appreciate the wattle. Stay strong ladies. <3 <3 <3
