Having a disease with no cure is a weird thing. Usually I try not to think about having PKD - Polycystic Kidney Disease. I'm sure that most would call it denial, however, I just want to be "normal" and not let PKD define my life or who I am. The constant obsession over the realities of having PKD and what my future holds can be mentally exhausting. I choose to live my life in the now and in the positive.
However, today I was reading a wellness article on enzymes and started balling my eyes out. These emotions overwhelmed me within seconds of reading the word, "enzyme". Without getting into great detail about PKD, basically my body lacks an important enzyme, which is why I had that emotional response. I hate how emotional that I have become over the last 3 years of my life. I'm not sure if it's all that I've been through, child birth hormones that haven't left my body, or a combination thereof.
The bottom line: having PKD sucks. I'm going to workout to force some endorphines through my body. This will surely make me feel better. Is this a form of supression???
