Feeling Lost: Missing Out on Young Adulthood Due to Chronic Illness

I feel the same way. I am so fatigued that I can't do night life. My only sport activity is for Special Olympics rhythmic gymnastics because they actually support my different skills and what my disability slows down my progress on. One thing that my disability impacts is motor skills and chronic nerve issues. I am 22 turning 23 in November.

no bc i feel this more than you could know. i dont really have advice but like. you’re absolutely not alone and it really really sucks

Grief for the lives we could have had is real I didn't know my prime was 16 and that at 18 I'd be fainting 20+ times a day nor that every time I've thought I've hit my worst point and stabilized it some how progresses and gets worse I'm 33 now completely a hermit there's times I wish I had lived a normal life but there's also points when I hear people talk about experiences they had in their youth that I find myself thankful that I wasn't able to live that time and live those things. I don't know if it helps any and I'm always free to vent to if you ever need to talk but we all grieve the lives we could and should have had but the real key is finding peace and beauty in the life you do have
