From people who came through it

  • โ€œWhen you first hear the word rare, it feels like a door slamming. You'll spend months explaining it to doctors and yourself. Some days you'll faint in the queue at the shop and feel like a spectacle. But you'll also find people who listen. You'll learn to pace yourself. You'll get a caseworker who helps with the bills. It won't be fixed, but it will be managed. And you'll still play guitar badly, and that's something.โ€

  • โ€œTo whoever needs this: A year and a half ago I was exactly where you are. For me it was a diagnosis code that does not fit the forms. I got a new job in April. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. From someone who gets it.โ€

  • โ€œReading this late at night? I've been there. I was right where you are two years ago. For me it was a diagnosis code that does not fit the forms. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold. Sending love.โ€

  • โ€œNot that long ago, about a year, that was me. Back then it was flying to a specialist. Some weeks I don't think about it at all. Bit by bit it comes back.โ€
