I'm haven't had a chance to do much in life. I was allways on the borderline of being normal, but never quite got there because of my nystagmus. I was a musician. I keep that to myself now it was my attempt at fitting in, and while it surpassed my dreams and expectations, it still wasn't good enough to cut it in a world where intellectual property is so abundant. I need work. Each day is a struggle to keep my mind in the right and see something positive and do something productive.

I've had it since I've been born. Life has been a struggle from school, friends, girls, now work. I've tried to find ways to forget about this, by leaving the house only at night, wearing dark glasses, being a musician, taking anxiety pills, and living in a city with a good transportation system. I just never met anyone who has this and could use a friend or some career advice. I know there's never going to be a cure, so I don't bother wasting my money on Doctors any more cause don't have any.
I have condition that's called nystagmus and vision shifts often throughouut the day and it makes me very nervous especially when I'm not in a situation where I need to see. The pills they gave me a running out. I think they're not the right kind, but they sometiems do something to make it better. I can't take them all the time-they make me stupid.
