What was something very discouraging you dealt with? (1 Viewer)

After my acl surgery I obviously knew not to expect to be running and tumbling the next day. I knew it would take time to get back to how I was. But I was given a list of exercises, and one was leg raises (lie on your back and raise your leg). It’s pretty simple but it took me like a week and a half before I could raise it to a 30 degree angle. For the first week or so I couldn’t actually lift it at all It was very frustrating. Eventually I was able to though. At first it was just a bit but as I got stronger I could lift it more and more. So a happy ending, but the beginning stage was not fun

Already having an autoimmune disorder and following through with taking care of said autoimmune disorder and now I may possibly have another autoimmune disorder.

Will I actively try to seek out diagnosis though? Probably not. Also part of my weight loss being DUE to said disorder was a little upsetting because I gained weight back after starting treatment and that was a bit upsetting.

When I learned at 23 years old that I have a developmental disability that my parents refused to have me tested and diagnosed for as a child so I spent my entire life hating myself and wondering what was wrong with me. I've never felt more let down in my life by my so-called parents for this neglect and I don't see myself ever forgiving them

My psychosis is very annoying
as well as my depression

I think its when people will openly say they dislike that I’m reserved and quiet. To have people you once considered a friend (even family members) to say you’re “boring” or that they would just prefer that I talked more like so and so makes you really begin to dislike yourself and be nervous to make new friends because if those old friends don’t like you the way you are, why would others. It’s still something I struggle to move on from because I still hear it quite often.

I think it's me having to deal with my self-hate every day. It gets so bad sometimes, just like today, that I decided to wear a mask during my college classes to hide my face.
