Responding to friends
I'm finding that I am getting quite frustrated and upset that friends dismiss my symptoms, say I'm doing well and tell me they can't see I have any issues at all when inside I'm struggling with fatigue, tingling, loss of sensation and symptoms like vertigo, eye pain and balance issues. How do people cope and respond because I'm feeling like I'm not taken seriously at all.
However painful it is but maybe these friends were for your old you. The new version of you needs different friends. It’s hard - I said goodbye to alot of my friends. I have a small core network now and they totally get me, and give me the support I need. It hurts and many hugs. Xx
The word friend means a person who would be your side and love and support you regardless of your condition. If they can't satisfy the basic conditions, are they truly your friends? I agree with @BFShadow Sorry, but it needs to be said! Good Luck!!!
