Misc, I honestly don't think I have but a few years to live... Find someone you love.

Don't feel down on yourself misc. I want to live forever, I really do. But I feel like my health is rapidly declining. I don't want to really talk to anyone about it in real life.
Most days I am ok, but some days I feel like I am getting worse.
I've got a slew of diseases I have had / do have.

- Hodgkins Lymphona
- Idiopathic Thrombocytopenia Purpura
- Mild form of Lupus
- Undiagnosed Autoimmunse disorder
- Hypothyroidism
- Undiagnosed Skin disorder
- Severe Emphysema
- Asthma

I take around 15 different drugs and pills a day...

But thru it all, I am happy. I don't regret living. I feel like I have seen so much and accomplished so many things in my life.

However, the point of the thread is for the downers, the foreveraloners, the Illnevermakeits... Just believe in yourself...
I had a rough life growing up. I wasnt popular in Highschool. I was overwight, I was out of shape, I am Indian (which the Misc classifies as some type of disease apparently).
In HS, I often sat in the bathroom eating lunch by myself. I got picked on, people called me carpet rider, camel jockey, it was rough, but I always tried to make the best of it.
In my 20's I had low self esteem. I honestly believed no girl would ever even consider me, look at me, let alone ever love me.

Don't believe those things miscers. I had and still have the worst stretch marks from my skin disorder, I have/had horrible loose skin. I have acne, and have a lot of pitted marks all over my face. But guess what? I found someone who loves me more than I could ever have imagined. She is amazing, and doesn't care about any of those things. I still look down on myself all the time for my physical issues. But she doesn't see them. She only sees me.

A beautiful amazing woman won't care if you are as ripped as Zyzz, she will love you for who you are. Listen to this song anytime you feel like you cannot find a woman because of your physical insecurities, and understand that the right woman won't be about that. She will love you, for you, and not just for you, everything it is that makes you who you are.




I've been reading books of old
The legends and the myths
Achilles and his gold
Hercules and his gifts
Spiderman's control
And Batman with his fists
And clearly I don't see myself upon that list

But she said, where'd you wanna go?
How much you wanna risk?
I'm not looking for somebody
With some superhuman gifts
Some superhero
Some fairytale bliss
Just something I can turn to
Somebody I can kiss
I want something just like this
RIP mainsqueeze530

y u leave us so early bro?

Thanks man, me too. I have a lot of people who depend on me.
I am not scared of death. My fear is leaving them, I don't want them to have to go thru the pain of not having me around.
I don't want my parents to have to go thru the pain of losing a child. I don't want my sister/business partner to be lost and broken. I cannot leave my wife. She's too young. She loves me too much, and it isn't fair. I promised her I would die after her. I cannot leave my doggies. They look up to me and love me so much.

Exactly. I wish I could do more, I want to do more. I will do more. This weekend I will do what Ive been wanting to do for a few weeks now. I want to help people more. I want to spread love.

Whenever I want to feel down on myself, I consider how luck I really am. I am blessed to have at least 30 years. I have been blessed with so much, I could go on and on. I will, one day, write about how lucky I am, and how amazing life has been to me. I am truly grateful.

Brother, I have been everywhere. I have seen no less than 25 doctors the past year. I have been to Mayo Clinic in Rochester, they couldn't even figure it out. I have done genetic testing, nothing. I have never smoked a cigarette in my life, yet I have severe emphysema. I workout, I try to eat well, I eat fruits, veggies, I no longer drink protein, I only eat natural, organic foods.

I wish I knew, I wish doctors knew. They just tell me that unfortunately a lot of cases cannot be diagnosed. My skin is literally ripping. Every single doctor tells me they have never seen it before, and they look at me in shock. Plastic surgeons don't want to touch the skin either for fear of what could happen if they even try to suture it back. It's hard to explain really.

Oh, I forgot to mention arthritis in my chest, and in my hands, knees, and feet... Im 30 yrs old, but its ok. It isnt debilitating. I am thankful that I can even walk, run, play basketball, and still workout. It gets hard, and I take 2 inhalers 2-3 times a day. I have to slow down when I exercise, but I can still do it.

Not yet, never heard of it. I saw some type of stem cell therapy where they can regrow your skin. I tried contacting the doctor but never heard back. Also interested in trying Cannabis oil, not sure if it will help, or how to dose any of it. Looking into a bunch of things, but Ill definitely add this to the list....

I honestly want this to happen.
