Hi helloq. Yes, it can be an isolating and lonely illness. Many feel that way. The forum is full of good people who will offer support and understanding, so I hope you will stay around so you can be a part of that too.

If there's a support group in your area, that can be a big help too.

I agree. I am lucky enough to have a supportive family and my one friend who has stood by me through everything, but when the school year starts, and I am the only one of my friends and former classmates that is not going to college, it feels so lonely and upsetting. I find a lot of comfort from seeing a psychologist and from this support group! It also helps me to go for a little walk when I am up to it, even if it is alone being outside helps. I am sorry you are going through this. I think the isolation is one of the hardest parts of this disease.
