From people who came through it
“Hello from the other side of it. I was right where you are not that long ago, about a year. For me it was people talking to my partner instead of me. Yesterday I booked a holiday. It doesn't stay this heavy.”
guitar_hill · been through adjusting to a disability“To 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.”
Lorry driver W · been through adjusting to a disability“If you're at the start of this, I won't pretend it's easy. The first few months were the worst of my life. But I'm writing this from the other side, and some days now I forget to be sad and my nurse specialist has been more useful than the consultant, if you have one ask for their number, go slowly.”
green_rose · been through adjusting to a disability“For 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.”
