I’ve lost myself in my chronic illness

[@msbronoske482]

Relatable. Pain and suffering do allow us the opportunity to offer hope and empathy to others who feel alone. If you were better tomorrow, you would still be you, but now able to speak from a side of experience that only those who have endured the struggle can. And offer hope of healing... ❤

You’re exactly right, thank you for sharing this perspective with me. I needed to hear it 🥹❤️

Completely Relatable!! I Totally Empathize with you! Nope. You’re not crazy at all.

[@LameLifeOfKelsey]

thank you for saying this Kathleen 🥹 I often feel so alone in my journey but then I come on here & am reminded that I'm not. thank you for being here️💙

You’re welcome, Kelsey! I completely understand this, too. Pregnancy and childbirth with my youngest was **SO HARD**. So Hard. And two years later, I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I was also diagnosed with a “misalignment of my pelvis”. (Apparently, I’d fractured it -either during pregnancy or childbirth- and it just didn’t heal correctly.) I also have since been diagnosed with a whole host of other chronic health conditions. I worked part time as a substitute teacher…until I just couldn’t anymore. I miss it So Much. Our health is part of us. It helps us to be who we Are. We are going to talk about our health. More so when we have health concerns.

Even if you get better it doesn't mean that you will stop caring for other poeple and helping them with their disabilities, you're someone who helps other cause you want to not cause you also suffer.

Jonathan, thank so much for this comment. You’re reminding me that I was born with a desire to help other people. Struggling so much mentally & physically might’ve deepened my desire to reach other people but it’s not the sole reason I want to. The desire is there whether or not I’m healed. Thank you 🥹💙
