It’s a long lonely road. Do exactly as the doctor tells you and stay close to family and friends.
Exercise when you can, eat healthy, find a hobby or an interest and most importantly don’t beat yourself up over being sick. Some things are out of our control. Hopefully better days are coming with new and improved meds.

how do you get past the fact that you may never experience a true reality?
Do something with your time, get out of the house otherwise your world becomes too small.

participate in your recovery. it is your mind and maybe your emotions as well that need healing. let the dr. know how you feel and think etc. so the healing may begin.

Write things down.
Be careful with stress, listen to your doctor, take your meds, keep your life stable, and socialize even if it’s hard.
