It's a real thing, apparently.

I am so glad you come here and share and help us all understand better. Like Heidi said above, we see you and we care. And I'm glad you're here. I'm a long distance support system over here. I'm always willing to listen!Beth (Coffee Until Cocktails)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13966675621394412590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3414435776825765041.post-28227402431372405102018-12-19T10:27:51.711-06:002018-12-19T10:27:51.711-06:00Oh gosh, just another thing, right? That's pro...Oh gosh, just another thing, right? That's probably how it feels at this point, but I'm with you on just wanting a diagnosis. It's something way worse dealing with symptoms but not knowing why or what to do. I hope that talk therapy does end up helping with this, as it sounds like it's something that could go away, which is a nice thought! I'm sorry about all the friends that have kind of walked away. Yes, it's easy to do when things are tough or you don't know what to do, but it's also not a very good friendship, you know? It's not your fault and I hate that you feel like you should hide what you go through...you shouldn't! Not all the time at least! People who are around you should know these things and hopefully be able to learn ways to help or adjust. It's not a fake it until you make it kind of thing, you know? It's your life and you shouldn't have to always pretend it's okay. *hugs*<br /><br />-Lauren<br />www.shootingstarsmag.netShooting Stars Maghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16074581473656321052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3414435776825765041.post-10851109311919155622018-12-19T08:54:11.435-06:002018-12-19T08:54:11.435-06:00I know that you are sick of hearing this - but I a...I know that you are sick of hearing this - but I am glad you are here. Life is SO hard at times and for you, its all of the time. BUT - you are telling your story and it is helping people - including me. Maybe its to teach awareness, maybe its to inspire hope in others, and maybe its to help other people stop being fake and start being real.<br /><br />I know that friendships have changed for you - but there are many of us that are here. We see you, we "get" you, and we love you even more than we used to. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15918689967291513684noreply@blogger.com
