I have several chronic illnesses that sometimes feel like they are wearing me right down to a nub.

The best thing to do when it gets overwhelming is to imagine that you are rolling yourself up into a ball...and then...imagine "rolling" with your pain. As you continue to fight it and search for solutions, try to make peace with it at the same time.

I know you don't see any light at the end of the tunnel, but never give up hope. Keep reaching out as you need to. There are many DUers here that understand, because they are in similar boats.

Keep fighting...you're going to be alright. Slow and steady, but keep working towards a good outcome.

Don't worry about deleted posts. they happen for a variety of reasons. Perhaps the poster decided not to respond because they couldn't word it like they wanted to, perhaps they made a mistake in their post, all kinds of reasons for that, that are not nefarious.

Best wishes to you.

Keep fighting.
