> I used to believe that my illness was preventing me from participating in life. Perhaps it's not participating in life that is causing the illness, instead.
That's a very sage comment. And sort of partially at the crux of a double disorder I have -- both Somatiform and a certain sense of peter-pan ness. I have to find the hope within, medications may help, but I have to participate in life. I don't know how I'm going to, I am not handicapped but I am "challenged" and downright depressed (MDD) at times about my illness.
And that's why I always encourage people to get out a bit each day if they seem to be sort of shut in. Today was kind of a blah day, I really didn't get out much. I have things on my mind worrying me alot of course like everyone does, but I should have done something. Maybe I'll at least do something later on.-- tidings
