Acceptance that I may never really recover in the ways I want. May never have the life I wanted. It doesn’t feel as distressing when I think about it now. I’m just doing my best. I’ve dealt with so much I just need to be easy on myself.

Yes. I didn’t choose to have my health issues. It wasn’t something I could of avoided so it’s important to accept I might be a little different from my friends for example.

@Moon keep the job for is good for you in all aspects of life. And yes you might not have you neighbours life, but take 77nick77 as exemple. That could be decent enough.
It would be good to be with people who share the failures like its fun though it sucks. And accept the illness as something that is normal routine stuff we go through. And I find those people here. Happy for finding it and being in it.
I accepted my failures.
It will never get better.
@whirling-leaves , please don’t bring Grookey down. You’re struggling and extremely depressed, but you might find there are things that can actually get better. Keep working in therapy and talk to your pdoc about how extreme your depression is. Lots of physically ailing people can still find happiness and a meaningful life. You can too. You just need help right now. Please don’t give up.
@Moon, success might look different now than it did before but that’s true for well people many times too. Things change and people change. Spend some time getting to know the new you and start brainstorming what you like and don’t like, what you’re comfortable with, and new goals.

Once i get going with something (as level said) it pulls me back as well, sucks.
I accept that my life may not get better as well, but these days you should enjoy yourself because these days are the ones you will think went fast. Its good to know others struggle with this acceptance as well.
