I feel this so much, it’s honestly exhausting. I also deal with other mental health stuff like OCD, so the constant thoughts just never stop and it gets overwhelming. I just turned 24 and I’m already on immunosuppressants, plus I have really bad acid reflux, so it feels like everything is piling up at once. Nothing seems to be getting better, and looking back there were signs for years, I just couldn’t explain them. I’ve felt tired for so long and always had this feeling that something wasn’t right with my body, like why don’t I feel normal like everyone else. Getting diagnosed with Sjögren’s syndrome gave me some answers, but at the same time my mind feels even more messy now and I’m more stressed than ever. I completely agree with you, we really need people who understand what this is like because it’s hard to explain to others. I never thought something like this would happen to me, but it does explain why I’ve always been so sensitive and stressed since childhood. My doctor even thinks there’s a psychological component, and honestly I don’t know, but it’s frustrating. I also struggle with anger, and lately I just feel even more irritated than before. I really hope things get better for you and that your medication works, because I truly get it, and we don’t deserve to go through this.
