I think a lot of people don't really understand how in having a chronic illness, you struggle with optimism. I have been disappointed so many times, that now I keep a more realistic approach, so I wont be disappointed in the end. SO, when things don't work out, the reality doesn't break me. - ThreadSky

I've been a chronic pain girlie pop for a long time, but I've got an appointment in March to find out what variety of autoimmune disease(s) I've got, and I'm feeling that struggle rn. Hard to be optimistic when knowing the hell that getting diagnosed can be.

i feel this so much. really simple things like booking an appointment cost SO much energy especially when you dont even know if itll be a waste of time and money - its hard to look forward to a potential "solution" when youve been disappointed before. sending you courage and energy

My chronic illnesses are not going away. There is no cure. There are things that help alleviate symptoms, but overall it is never going away completely. It is chronic. It isn't pessimistic to understand that. Sadly it is a fact, backed by science. It is what it is

sorry for this little rant. My aunt just said something yesterday, when I was already in pain/etc, and it just got to me...

Sometimes it gets tough putting on a face and dealing with people who won’t understand

i think it's valid to feel like that especially when someone who dont understand your situation tries to lecture you

This. It dictates my whole life.
I've spent days and days in different doctors offices just for them to tell me they don't know how to (or just can't) fix it. If you tell me to go visit a doctor, it's as if you think I'm too stupid to do so. I tried more than enough.
