Every week I have to go to the doctor for a new problem. Like appendicitis, GERD, anorexia, and many more to name a few. It feels as if my body is crumbling over time. I'm still young, and have dreams to fulfill. However I feel like I won't be able to, like I'll wake up one day as a lifeless corpse. I doubt I'll live much longer, but I also feel like I'm catastrophizing everything. Any inspiration or words of advice?
Hi Huzzah!,
When it comes to anorexia, have you seen this:

It does seem to be different in autistics sometimes. I hope that you health providers are aware of this.
P.S. I had my appendix out aged 10 and had reflux for most of my life. I have finally got the reflux under control.
