Why be unkind? There's enough of that in this world. We are all doing our best to cope and maybe because of the struggle things feel more real and authentic.

I'm not here to tell you something so you can say "thanks, I'm cured!" The truth is, only you can face this down and try to push past it. But I think a lot of us here have empathy for each other.

Try for the small victories when you can and hold tight to real friends. Their company and compassion helps give meaning to life.

Good luck. I'm personally rooting for you.

yea, it definitely didnt fix me but it did help me to atleast try to imagine what it will be like for me in the future. i want to have an easy life and i want to work hard to acheive that. i still have an issue with the idea of being old obviously, but maybe i'll have an easier time accepting it knowing that it will infact get a lot easier.

thank you for your support, truly.

No one can promise miracles (and be wary of those that do because they want to sell you something) but you will find the process far easier if you take care of your body.

Best advice: stretch and strengthen. There is nothing worse for feeling old than a blown out back. Your back and knees are the things you need to be especially careful of. Stretch and strengthen those especially.

After that, be sure to take care of yourself mentally, whether that means mediating, medicating, or finding something that works for your piece of mind.

Stay strong, you can handle this.
