Life with Functional Neurological Disorder
I refuse to let these new diagnoses hold me back. I'm figuring out my limits and how to cope when things go awry. It's a long journey to recovery, and I've embraced the fact that life is going to look a little different from here on out.

Each day presents its own set of challenges, but I am committed to facing them head-on. I've discovered that humor is a powerful tool; it lightens the load and allows me to see the silver linings amidst the chaos. By focusing on what I can control and staying open to new possibilities, I am carving out a path that honors my journey and celebrates the small victories along the way.
I've also realized the importance of community and connection. Surrounding myself with supportive and understanding individuals has made a world of difference. Whether it's through sharing stories, exchanging tips, or simply lending an empathetic ear, these relationships provide strength and encouragement. Together, we uplift one another, reminding ourselves that we're not alone in this journey.
As I continue to learn and grow alongside Glitch, I am determined to live authentically and fully, embracing each moment as it comes.
