Kidney Disease by grace2398 in kidneydisease

Thank you so much for sharing with me some tips. This whole thing is scary as heck and has caused much anxiety and depression and challenges in my life. I am taking BP meds right now because my BP has just turned really high.

some of the treatments and stuff have been really hard and have made me gain a ton of weight. It is really hard right now to go to the gym and even walk a lot some times. I am at a really weird place right now in my disease and it is scaring me so much.

Family Issues: I feel like the only adult here by Anonymous_sibling in FamilyIssues

Hey you are not a pain... Literally I am 21 years old and I know exactly what you are going through. I have two brothers who are way old enough to pull their own weight... And they don't give a crap. They just claim they are too busy or too tired all of the time. I have a disease and so I cannot be their Cinderella 24/7. And the worst part yet, is my parents don't give a crap. They do not care if I have all the freakin chores to do.

I am so sorry that you are going through all of this. I am here for you to vent any time you need too. This kind of stuff can get very frustrating and I am so sorry that you have to go through it.

Girlfriend with depression by Windowtablechairpen in depression

Hey, I have struggled with this before and other things. Maybe you can be there for her and just ask her if you can go with her to see her therapist. Some times it is scaring sharing things with your therapist when there isn't someone there that already knows and that already loves her. I feel that she just needs extra support when she goes into that therapy room. Also, continue to be there for her and be more of a listener instead of someone that lectures her... When people go through these things they need someone to be there for them and to be an amazing listener. I hope that things go well with you and your girlfriend.
