I’ve been on this Reddit for a while, all I see of how surgeries fail and people end up with bad outcomes. Reading all of it kinda makes me scared of surgery, should I need it. Are there any stories from people who had the surgery and things turned out for the better?
I’m a 23F I’ve been dealing with health issues that I’m trying to get addressed this year, I’m scared because I might need surgery and it’s a pretty big surgery to me because I need this part of me to work so I can pursue the career I want. I also have to decide whether IF I need surgery, do I get it and risk the dangers or should I learn to live with some pain?
My FRIEND is finishing up her degree and recently has been talking about wanting to move away in a few years. I feel so anxious because I feel like everyone is moving on or doing something with their lives and I’m not.
I haven’t been able to pursue what I want and commit to my degree or a job because of my health issues. The degree I want also requires me to move away from my family and friends and social network- it’s kind of expensive and my family is poor.
Everything just feels like it’s going wrong for me I’m trying my best to lay down small stones- doing what I can to set myself up but I can’t help feeling like I’m getting old and time is running out while everyone else has finished their degrees and I haven’t even gotten started.
My (friends) and I always talked about possibly moving to another city together but if everything goes well in the next year or so and I get into the program I want, that won’t be possible. But I can’t exactly hold my friend back and ask her to stay- and again what if it doesn’t work out with the financial aspect of the degree? Or my health aspect of it?
I want so badly for everything to go well but it’s all so unsure right now and it keeps making me sad. Advice
