Pemphigus Vulgaris- 11 things to remember

Image
 What this journey has taught me? Starting with simple affirmations and yearning for them to become true is where I stand today! 'That's okay! Better days are ahead of you, it's going to be fine.' They seem simpler, but the darkest times taught me that it isn't simple to hold on to them when you see your life falling apart. Picking yourself up and having the will to redesign it from scratch—everything depends on these words. So, repeat them until you make it through! YOU GOT THIS. 11 things to remember  1.   You can’t control everything and that’s absolutely okay! 2.   You will learn along the journey; every person is different thus every day is a learning , that’s okay! 3.  You will learn to love and appreciate your life. 4.   You will find ways to manage symptoms even at cost of every flare up, that’s okay! 5.   The journey is long and tiring.
