So this semester that just ended for me has been very rough….
In August I learned that all of the joint inflammation and pain I have been having is in fact RA…

That link is a pretty good description of what the disease is….
Needless to say it has changed the way I lived my life and this semester I spent most of my time trying not let it get any worse than it is. I have experienced the loss of not being able to do a lot of the things I loved, and the loss of many people I thought were my friends but they drifted away from me because of the ravages of my disease. I feel so lonely.
Today I am in so much pain and it reminds me of what I have lost, it makes me depressed. I wonder now that I got this disease and it has pervaded my life so much, how my prospects for a social/love life will be.
I might have to brace for the worst and live with the possibility of living a very lonely and miserable existence.
I am bi and it has been hard do far so just dating with women and men, they are the worst, I knew that some gay men had a streak of vanity but I get treated like a leper once they find out I have something wrong with me.
Dont give up hope, learn more about your condition because information is power. Learn the excersizes you need to strengthen your body and make allowances for the things you can no longer do. Over time you will get stronger and better..eventually you will lead a good and fulfilling life if you never give up trying…
