I am the face of chronic illness

This post is a shout out to those who have chronic illness.  YOU ALL ARE WARRIORS!
*A chronic illness is a long-term health condition that may not have a cure.


 “I fight for my health every day in ways that most people don’t understand. I’m not lazy. I’m a warrior!” -unknown








Hypothyroidism …

A thief who stole
My life,
My smile,
My laugh,
My beauty,
My confident,
And my dreams.

It’s like a shadow to me.
So dark…that give me anxiety.

It’s followed me everywhere.
No matter how hard I’ve tried, I could not outrun it.


I just don’t know when will it go away from me…
Sleepless night and vertigo in the morning but I need to go to work for the sake of my family..

So finally I’ve decided that I have to face it.
After many years finally I turned around and faced it.
Look at it as an opportunity instead ..
Opportunity for me to learn, adapt, and become a stronger version of myself.

Hypothyroidism illness is often invisible while I look healthy and “normal” my illness is always with me. 

      Thus,
      please help me..
      Stop saying im lazy! 
      Stop body shaming!
      Stop saying that i am not trying hard! 
      Stop assuming!! Just STOP!

Hypothyroidism:
Because too little thyroid hormone slows your body’s metabolism, it can cause general symptoms like:
  • fatigue 
  • weight gain
  • cold intolerance
  • swelling of hands and feet
A lack of thyroid hormone can leave your skin dry and pale. It can also affect how you control your body temperature, making you sweat less than usual. Your hair — including the hair on your scalp and along the outer edges of your eyebrows — can become thin. Your nails may look different and become brittle.

Hypothyroidism can affect every part of your body, from your brain to your skin. Yet the condition is different in everyone. Some people have mild symptoms while others have more severe symptoms. Taking medication your doctor prescribes is important so you can manage this condition and its symptoms and maintain a healthy lifestyle
