How to deal with being sick at 29?

#lemon8contest #AskLemon8

hey guys, my name is Hailey and I’m chronically ill. I have something called lupus that has caused so much damage to my body. I’m 29 and I’m incredibly sick and I’m trying to find a way to process and not be so mad at the world

Lupus changed my life too.. I agree sometimes it totally does feel unfair… I have been sick with Lupus for as long as I can remember. I’m here for you 💜🥄

Hey Hailey, you're not alone. I was diagnosed with thyroid condition at age 21, and I was born with asthma. When I was 27 years old, I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my left knee, which means my cartlidge is almost gone, I also found my 4 and 5 discs in my back are bulging. Just last year, I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. I understand it's really hard not to be mad at the world. But you're not alone.❤️
