Also reading about how I might have done permanent damage to my neurological and endocrine system. And that my skin is going to look ****** for the rest of my life. I'll stop for about a month thinking about my daughter, but then I can't stop reading all of these awful negative things and I don't see the point in quitting. I won't have a quality of life and I can either die now when she will forget or wait until she's a teenager to slowly deteriorate.
I have only empathy for what u are going through. Sometimes hope is out of reach and we may have to believe in something. I hope you can find peace without going into a death spiral of sadness and suffering. Sending you healing thoughts and blessed be dear precious one.
