My
Journey
through
Illness My
journey
with
illness
started
four
years
ago
when
I
was
diagnosed
with
a
rare
autoimmune
disease.
At
the
time,
I
didn't
know
much
about
it,
and
I
was
in
shock.
I
felt
like
my
life
had
been
turned
upside
down.
The
journey
has
been
tough,
but
I
have
learned
so
much
about
myself
and
the
world
around
me. One
of
the
most
challenging
aspects
of
my
illness
has
been
the
unpredictable
nature
of
it.
One
day,
I'll
feel
great,
and
the
next,
I'll
be
bedridden.
It
can
be
frustrating
not
knowing
what
the
day
will
bring,
but
I
have
learned

I
have
found
the
importance
of
self-care,
and
I
prioritize
rest
and
stress
reduction.
It's
crucial
to
listen
to
my
body
and
advocate
for
myself
when
needed. Along
with
the
physical
toll,
my
illness
has
had
a
significant
impact
on
my
mental
health.
I
have
struggled
with
anxiety
and
depression,
which
is
not
uncommon
for
individuals
living
with
chronic
illness.
But
I
have
found
support
in
others
who
understand
and
through
therapy
and
mindfulness
practices. Being
a
patient
has
also
taught
me
about
the
importance
of
community.
I
have
connected
with
others
living
with
the
same
illness
or
a
similar
condition
through
social
media
and
support
groups.
These
connections
have
been
invaluable,
and
I
have
learned
so
much
from
others'
experiences.
My
family
and
friends
have
been
there
for
me
throughout
my
journey,
and
their
love
and
support
have
been
essential
to
my
recovery. Overall,
my
journey
with
illness
has
been
a
rollercoaster
of
emotions,
but
I
have
learned
to
live
life
to
the
fullest
despite
my
limitations.
I
hope
to
continue
to
spread
awareness
and
advocate
for
those
living
with
chronic
illness.
I
will
not
let
my
diagnosis
define
me,
and
I
will
continue
to
fight
for
a
bright
future.
