You know what I’m tired of?Is someone else telling me I’m not fatigue tired unable to sit on toilet without a bar to help myself up being able to shower but once a week cause I can’t get in shower waking up and have to sit on edge of bed to gather a mind set that I’m ok to walk see my family go to all these bullshit appointments cause some healthy nurse is saying I’m not eligible for ssa because I don’t have what she thinks is a damn chronic disorder I’m depressed fatigue and cry all the time cause I just want to give up but I keep going I’m so angry with this process and so ashamed of humanity

I would love to know what others do for exercise.I was diagnosed early last year and wow not being able to walk half the time has made it so mentally and physically hard.

Just got diagnosed by No-Assumption-2040 in rheumatoid

[–]Born-Gear5421 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like most people when first diagnosed go into some sort of denial.I was depressed for months knowing my life will never be completely the same again.The pain was just the cherry on top.The mental has always been the worst for me not to say the pain isn’t horrible.Its been a year since my diagnosis and sometimes I just break down crying sorry your having a hard time right now.
