...See more At 19 years old working my first job. I accidentally disabled myself . I have a permanent spinal injury . It effects my ability to be able to walk stand or sit for long periods of time . The pain can be a lot some days. Im 21 now and only just now getting ready to go back to work . With lots of work restrictions though . I find myself feeling so guilty and not being able to cope . I hate myself for what I did even though it was a accident. it’s hard to cope that a 5 second event has caused me a permanent reality. or the fact that other plp have had the same type of accident but didn’t get disabled like me . I hate that my body failed me. I haven’t been able to sleep for a few days . the feeling of guilt and not wanting to live disabled has been overwhelming . Has anyone else experienced something similar? In my head it feels as though most people are born disabled or get disabled by a event out of there own control . Has anyone else disabled themselves and have advice on how to forgive yourself . Or if anyone has advice in general. thank you.

...See more I’ve always had trouble sleeping . Doesn’t matter if it’s because I’m excited about tomorrow. Anxious about tomorrow. Or have no reason to what’s upsetting me . I won’t sleep . I definitely know what’s giving me anxiety but I have no clue how to get myself to sleep this time . I feel extremely nauseous when I have anxiety . Hoping today is better so I can study. Also hoping I can actually take a nap I’ve been only able to nap for 30 minutes at a time .
