Sleep or the lack of it
I have a sleep disorder that mimics narcolepsy. I have no control, but I still feel guilt and shame when I wake up during the night and can't get back to sleep. It's affected my relationships, my self image, and I have been dealing with this so long...I'm starting to think this world has nothing to offer me and I'm not supposed to be here.
Hey there @Penpalz1212
I'm so sorry to hear that you're dealing with this condition and it seems to be impacting your self image and relationships. <3 It must be really difficult to not get a good night's sleep, I can imagine it's quite frustrating at times as well. I hope that you're getting medical support with this condition to help you manage it, especially if it's making you feel so low. :\
I'd recommend chatting with a listener who specialises in disability and/or have lived experiences with health conditions. I've done a search for you here. Hopefully you find a listener that you feel can listen and support you with this. <3
