March is Autoimmune Awareness Month đź’ž
Quick lesson about autoimmune diseases. It takes an average of 3 years and 5 doctors for a person to get a proper diagnosis of an autoimmune disease. I just wish more people understood what an autoimmune disease is. It is not a cold or the flu, you will never get better, and even a nap will not help. Just eating a salad and hitting the gym won’t cure it, slim your face or get the pounds off. Sleeping 10 hours doesn’t leave you well rested, ever. Last minute changes in plans because that “just got ran over” feeling never makes appointments, just walks in whenever you aren’t ready. Achy joints and bones, dry skin, breaking hair, mood swings, and depression are just the tip of the iceberg. You are also prone to having multiple autoimmune diseases.
The “put together on the outside”, rarely matches the raging battle on the inside.
