Lung disease at 36

[savingmyself12]

I have a slow progressive lung disease I'm 36 and everyday I struggle to breathe it's a horrible feeling it sends me into a panic attack which then makes my breathing even worse so I'm stuck in a suffering loop . I was so upset when my pulmonologist said I could live til I'm over 60 that's scares me I wish he never told me that but he thought I would be happy about it. I was always happy to know that hospice was an option until I learnt that you have to be right on deaths doorstep to be approved .
Suffering is so unfair and I should have more options instead of hearing keep going.

I wish people would protest or something for euthanasia. What's really life if it's only suffering

Yes, the same thing. I suffer from health problems, and I just have to say it's crazy and so hurtful that people expect you to go on like this. But hey, at least you managed to find SS. Here you will find support regarding CTB and mental health.

Hospice gives specific end of life care.
Is there anything to ease your situation?

I understand looking for a bus ticket. I was there a few years ago.
You will find good ticket information here.

Maybe you can get palliative care? I believe you don't have to be dying for that just chronically ill

 

[Worndown]

Yes. Check on care options in your area.
Your Dr or hospital should know of some options. Google can find options too.

That sounds so dreadful, it's so cruel to me how there's all this pain and suffering in existing yet there isn't the option to be euthanised, it's so horrible to me how they deny people the right to die with the suffering and torture of existing seen as to force and prolong no matter what, I hope you find the relief you search for.
