Just wanted to connect with others who have a chronic illness. I feel so defeated. I've spent every day, all day trying to make it better, doing my research, coordinating my care. Ultimately, there's a little voice that knows it will get worse anyway. I'm in my 20s. I was an attractive woman. In the span of a few months, I started balding, my face started sagging, I started breaking out on my body. I'm trying to cope with the fact that I will never be attractive again but it's so hard because it was just too soon. I now look like I am in my 40s. My mind has not caught up with how I look on the outside. Life is different. It was all taken away from me so fast. I will have this condition forever. I wonder if it's even worth it to keep going now that my health is gone.
