Hey, I'm completely new to this platform.. I'm hoping to meet some people who can relate to having chronic illnesses, mental illnesses, and struggling on a daily basis. I try so hard to remain positive but I find it really tough when it feels like there's always a new symptom or new condition to deal with, as well as managing side effects of medication, not being able to live as fully as I'd like, and feeling like a burden to those around me. I hope I can offer some comfort and support to others as well. We deal with a lot in our lives, and very few people can understand how much we go through on a daily basis. If we can understand and support each other, that's one more positive thing to help balance out the rest of it.
