When You Are At The End Of Your Rope, Who Do You Vent Too?

If I had to answer this question over 25 years ago, I would have said my husband and my best friend.

A lot has changed over the past few decades. I now reached out to my online community. They understand and they get it. The one thing that I liked about this is that I have made some lifelong friends, who don't judge me.

Some of us meet up once a year and we get together at conferences, meetings, and Capitol Hill Days.

Who do you vent to now and has this changed over the years? Has this made a difference?

  1. Family members and 2 good friends who are supportive.

    1. Hello , That's good that you have support. I'm glad to hear that. We all need someone to talk to at times.

      1. The people I talk too are my nurses and doctor 2 times a year I'm on home injections

        1. Thanks for sharing. I do my injections at home too. 20 years and counting. It's good to have your healthcare team to talk to.
