I can’t stop thinking about what my life would be like if I never got chronic health conditions. I know I’ll never know and I shouldn’t think about it but ugh 🥲

I used to do this a lot and still do sometimes but it never gets me anywhere. I instead try to think about the people I’ve met, the places I’ve seen, and the opportunities I have had that maybe I wouldn’t have seen, had, or met had I not gotten sick. It’s hard to not mourn what could have been but I try to instead celebrate what already is and enjoy to the best of my ability the beautiful life I’ve built and will continue to build!!

It’s okay to mourn that. I don’t know your conditions or life, but mourn it, and keep moving. Find the good little things and opportunities

THIS!! I have amazing friends, an amazing career that I’m super passionate about, a great community, some great doctors, some really interesting trips and experiences, etc. I truly can’t imagine what my life would look like any other way and at this point I don’t think I care! It’s so so so freeing!
