JGrillot's Journal

Well, I'm new to DS and I wish I had found this place months ago. Some place to talk with others who know what I'm going through. Ever since My back injury My life has changed so much, Im an avid hiker and camper, I love going to the smokey mountains and anything outdoors. Well this injury has totally put all those activities on the back burner. All plans made last year are out the window. All I do is sit around, waiting for something to happen (anything). I find Myself staring out My bedroom window, watching life pass me by. Even going to the grocery store gives Me problems. Is there any hope for me for the future? Will i have to fear doing activities and working because of debilitating flare ups? Will one come about on a hike? Depression and anxiety are building up in Me, My sleeping routine is totally erratic and I dont really feel healthy any more. I pray to God to give me strength but I think He just pointed Me to this site ;)
