What physical and/or mental challenges do you face?
One of the challenges I face is not being able to write (due to peripheral neuropathy and carpal tunnel syndrome). Writing offered me an avenue for expression and creativity. It helped me cope emotionally as well. I realized that part of what is causing depression is not being able to express myself through writing. Won’t let it deter me.
Since my left is better my right hand I decided to start writing with my left hand. It is barely legible and it requires a lot of patience, but instead of grieving, I decided to improvise. Isn’t life about improvising anyway…
