Adhd, Depression, Anxiety, and autism for mental ones
For physical I have eczema so bad if I don't put lotion on my skin makes it so I cant move it hurts so much, I'm prone to skin infections a lot. I'm hyper flexible which sounds great until you've sprained your ankled enough that you are constantly worried when you take a walk. And the fact the scars from my eczema hurt in the cold.
I am severely sight impaired. Although I do have some eyesight, here in the United States I am considered blind by law.
So is my husband. He had cornea transplant in bothe eyes and wears the thickest lense available by prescription. I'm currently fighting to get him new glasses cause his lense fall out all the time.
Endometriosis, Chronic fatigue syndrome, asthma and NAFLD.
Sadly the spanish government believes that endo and cfs do not cause disabilities so legally its going to be very difficult to get my certificate. Even if i have a belgian certificate of 66+% disability.
OCD. It’s pretty severe and I’ve seen psychologists and am currently getting some tips to help me
I have ADHD, which effects every aspect of my life. I get overwhelmed, anxious, depressed and have trouble processing things. What I never knew until recently, was the condition is also why I’m always late, can’t make decisions, have boundary issues, struggle with overthinking, have difficulty maintaining relationships… along with crazy mood swings and other symptoms that have always made me feel like a loser in sooo many areas. Turns out, it’s not me, it’s a condition. Would have been nice to know all this before middle age. 😣
I have bi polar disorder one and two. With major depression disorder. Every single day is a struggle. It started after I found my son unresponsive at 15 days old. SIDS. I now work non stop at a store 2 miles from me as a seafood manager. I love my job, I love my kids. Some days I cry alot. I cry at work. I cry picking my remaining kids up. But I do it for them and for myself. I will never nurse again. But I will always be a mommy. I see bright sides and days. I see darkness and death. But with coucling and meds. I'm doing better than I ever thought I could be. My point is....if your struggling... open up. It never gets better but it hurts less. And also we love you. The board panda community rocks.
ADHD
Bipolar 🤪
Being hot AF 💅
Stroke Survivor, Complex Migraine, Fibromyalgia, Endometriosis, Complex PTSD, Panic Disorder, Major Depressive Disorder, and currently ruling out others.
hope you get better; I feel you on the PTSD and panic disorder
I have intense insomnia and ADHD, a lil ptsd, and some social anxiety.
I have generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, and I’m not sure that this counts but trichotillomania which means I compulsively pull my hair out.
I suspect that I *might* have chronic dizziness but not really sure
I have depression, anxiety, PTSD, fibromyalgia and something called circular vomiting syndrome which is as fun as it sounds. Basically every couple of weeks for no reason I get a fever and almost constant vomiting for a few days. Hoping maybe an upper endoscopy can give me some more insight.
Where to start. Degenerative disc disease all my life. Sciatica from first kid. Chronic fatigue came first 10-12 years ago. Then fibromyalgia. Spinal stenosis and arthritis in lower back. Then arthritis in both knees. Worst is the severe Neuropathy in my feet caused by chemo. (CIPN - Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy). I can't walk more than 5-10 minutes or I'm in agony (tailbone and L5 have NO disc left - bone on bone. L4 & L3 close to that). Can't shop, can't cook or clean, do laundry anymore. Can't camp anymore. Can't hold my first grandchild for more than a few minutes. Oh, and a mastectomy of my left breast. You do what you can when you can. It's frustrating but I'm still here, so one for the win column! 😉😁
I have autism (well we’re tryna get me a diagnosis rn but there is just like no way I don’t have it), I believe I have OCD, anxiety and possibly some form of an identity disorder, auditory hallucinations and I think I have an underlying physical disability; I struggle with chronic back pain and knee pain and some days it’s just so hard to walk without be in great pain and I want some form of walking aid like a walking stick or crutches or even a wheelchair for the really bad days but idk how to
So for me it is not as bad as some of them I've read, but to me it is a struggle. I have something related to a disease I once had called Campylobacter, which in rare cases have caused long term stomach pain and food sensitivity, but in addition to that I am lactose intolerant and also gluten-free, so that being said I can't eat anything without feeling sick. Also my sisters and grandma have fibromyalgia severe anxiety and OCD. Yup that's what goes on in my life.....
