Motherhood is a blessing, it is full of excitement and jubilation, but motherhood is also full of challenges and trials. I am a mother of three beautiful children.

I am also a mother who happened to struggle with chronic illnesses. Being a mother is tough, period. Being a mother while battling a chronic disease presents different challenges, at least it does for me.

I’ve always suffered from headaches, even when I was a child. Headaches were no stranger to me, although I never understood why I would sometimes faint when I got them; later on in life, I found out I had migraines.

The Infinite Benefits of Including Students With Disabilities
I was in my daughter’s middle school for a meeting with some of her teachers. As I was walking down a hallway with a few of them they stated, “Look, there is Yassy! She is cycling away. We hear she loves to go in that room and ride the bike for the whole gym class. She is in great shape.”  I looked in the room and there weren’t many other kids in there. It was new, with a glass wall, so I saw her and took this photo. It is blurry because I was trying to be quick, so as not to distract her.

How I Realized the Beauty of Confiding in Others About My Mental Illness
Some of the best connections I have made in the past few months have been after confiding in people about my mental illness struggles. There is something so pure about vulnerability, and I am ashamed that I tried so hard for so many years to rise above my vulnerable side and only show strength. I am ashamed that for so long, I was too afraid of judgment to talk about my mental wellness with others. I have realized now that talking about your struggles is one of the main contributors in the healing process. The ability to discuss your thoughts, feelings, fears and struggles with people allows them to not only see all sides of you but gives them the confidence to confide in you as well.

Fighting for Validation When Doctors Don't Take Your Chronic Illness Seriously
When you are first diagnosed with something like anxiety and depression or fibromyalgia and neuropathy, or the first time those conditions are thrown around at a doctor’s appointment, it can feel like a huge relief. You finally have an explanation; you finally have someone listening to you and taking your pain seriously, it’s huge.  Many of us spend months, years even fighting to be taken seriously, begging for our doctors to hear us, to stop what they are doing and pay attention to us.

Stop Making Chronic Illness a Competition
Out of everything we have to experience under the broad umbrella of chronic illness, I think many would agree getting the diagnosis itself can be the most difficult challenge. The constant appointments, having to explain what you’re experiencing, even though some symptoms are hard to put into words, experiencing a lack of faith in the medical system when it becomes a trial-and-error for a doctor to understand you and what you’re going through. It’s a collaborative effort and often is timely and frustrating, to say the least. Many of us spend time alone questioning if what we’re going through is “real” and whether or not it is something we can just “suck up” and live with, without having to continue to run around with doubt.
