โDear stranger, i was where you are this time last year. For me it was undetectable now but still scared. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. The bad days get further apart. One day at a time.โ
โmaybe you just found out. or maybe you've known for a while. either way, it's heavy. the pill is tiny. the fear is huge. tell one person you trust. for me that was grace. she didn't act weird about it. the undetectable thing is real, it's science, not just a promise. but the fear might stick around for a bit. that's fine. find something to hold onto. for me it's my plants. for you it might be something different. you're not the only one in this, even when it feels like it. (i know, i dislike that phrase too. but it's true.)โ
โTo whoever needs this: I was in the same place this time last year. Diagnosed last spring. That was every day. These days I mostly feel like me. You get yourself back in pieces. From someone who gets it.โ
โTo whoever needs this: I was where you are this time last year. It was u=U and believing it and I couldn't see past it. This year I did a 5k, slowly. The bad days get further apart. From someone who gets it.โ
