βI'm not going to tell you everything happens for a reason. It doesn't, but you can get through it. I did, and I'm not especially strong so I had to stop googling so it made everything worse.β
UΔur from Istanbul Β· been through adjusting to a disabilityβTo anyone just starting this: I won't say it's easy. It's not. Losing part of yourself is a grief. But you find new ways. My kids don't care about my eye. They care about me. The prosthetic still rubs. I still cry sometimes. But I swim, I make playlists, I pray. You'll find your new normal, even if it takes a while. God willing.β
Lorry driver W Β· been through adjusting to a disabilityβFor whoever is where I was: I was right where you are in 2023. Back then it was learning to use a wheelchair. Today I made breakfast, went to work and laughed at something. It doesn't stay this heavy.β
tori.dawn Β· been through adjusting to a disabilityβIf you're scared right now, I get it. I was right where you are in 2023. For me it was my old job I can not do now. I went on holiday in the summer and actually relaxed. It's slow, but it does come back.β
