I described it recently as being in a bird cage, poked repeatedly, with a toddler with adhd running around it 24/7. I've had it 30 years, it's f'd up .y body, lost me my job (I needed good vision) I've been on redeployment for 2 years so no stability, 2 years of eye injections, layering, monthly checks..I practically love in the outpatients department. I've struggled with it since my teens and now I actually despise and resent it. And I get sick of all the positive thinkers and do Golders on forums who just don't GET that for some of us it's part of life, for others it's a burden. The more I try to keep an eye on it and keep it controlled the worse my anxiety, frustration, anger, despondency, obsessiveness and disordered eating gets. 30years down, the thought of another 30 fills me with utter misery and fear of how much more my body will deteriorate, its beyond what it should be ar 38, by 68 I hate to imagine how miserable it will make me. I've thought about the peace of death many MANY a time.it makes me feel better seeing your message here, knowing just someONE else feels the same. x</p></blockquote><p></p>
