I don’t know if 35 years old still qualifies me as being a “young person,” but being diagnosed with ulcerative colitis (UC) at 14 years old sure does.

Imagine sitting in a doctor’s office, barely able to function, and being the youngest one by an easy 50 years. There’s nothing relatable in that moment, especially for a young teenager who just wants to enjoy the ebbs and flows of high school.

Instead, my world was riddled with confusion, exhaustion, loneliness, and embarrassment. I didn’t want to worry about pooping my pants while everyone else was dating and doing the sports they loved.

The Young Adult Book About Grief That Changed My Entire Perspective on Loss
“Instructions for Dancing,” by Nicola Yoon came out in 2021 after a five-year hiatus (more or less) from the author. As a giant Nicola Yoon fan (“The Sun Is Also a Star” is my favorite book of all time), this was a sad five-year period of my life, so when I saw the announcement for her new book, I was over the moon excited.

Why Relationships Matter With NMOSD
Upon leaving the hospital after being diagnosed with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), I was given instructions on how and when to take medication, how to understand limitations, what to do if I fall, how to call for help, and a bunch of other information I’ve since forgotten. NMOSD is a rare autoimmune disease that attacks the central nervous system, which can cause vision loss and paralysis. In theory, I was given what I needed to deal with my disease.

Kind Nurse Designs Adult Bibs That Look Like Shirts, Restoring Dignity
In her interview with The Courier, she explained a bit more about her inspiration for taking on this incredible project.“I’ve just finished my nursing degree, and through nursing and learning to nurse and working as a nurse, it’s all about promoting dignity wherever you can … but the big gap I always found and had trouble with was putting bibs on adults and them losing their sense of dignity as soon as you put a bib on them,” she said. ADVERTISEMENT Thankfully, her new design seems to be a hit with both patients and families alike.“They use the front panel of a button-up shirt and once placed on top of the clothing, they just look like clothing. It’s less confronting for family as well because it looks like normal clothes.”You can find a variety of designs for these trendy products online.

Feel Like Your Identity Isn't Represented in Health Care? You're Not Alone
Have you ever been to a health provider who just doesn’t seem to “get you?” Me too, and that’s speaking as a cisgender heterosexual white man living with mental illness — my identity is hardly underrepresented in health care. However, for people with diverse identities — such as gender, race, sexual orientation, or even age and religion — it can be important to find representation in health care. For example, Mighty contributor Ameera Ladak wrote in 2020 about how important it is for BIPOC people to feel supported by white therapists. Maya Lorde has similarly written about the difficulty of seeing white therapists who have been privileged in areas she has been oppressed as a queer Black woman.

Why I’m Grateful for the Term ‘Widowed’ Even Though I Hate It
The first time I checked the box next to “widowed” under the “relationship status” section of a form, I paused, pen tip hovering above the sheet of paper. I was about to check “married” as I usually do, but reality reared its head once again. I thumbed my wedding ring, lost in thought. I continue to wear my wedding ring because taking it off would feel like a betrayal to my husband — a declaration of the end of my marriage. It would mean closing an important chapter in my life to make way for a new chapter — and I’m not ready for that.

Yes, I Grieve My Life With Ulcerative Colitis and Here’s Why
Grief is often associated with a loss of a loved one. Or maybe when you think of grief, the horrible news cycle comes to mind. It’s hard to ignore all the upsetting things happening around our world right now, and much of it does call for a grieving period for many people. After all, the very definition of the word grief is “deep sorrow, especially that caused by someone’s death.” I don’t know about you, but I don’t know a single person that isn’t experiencing some form of sorrow these days.

This isn’t to say I’m walking around dishing out “toxic positivity”; rather, I prefer to find the deeper purpose in things that happen for me, not to me.

When I first started treatment for borderline personality disorder (BPD) in 2018, I thought I’d never be able to actually change. I worried that I’d continue using the self-destructive behaviors and unhealthy coping skills that had caused friends to walk away and even cost me my career in education. It seemed too difficult and unrealistic, and I felt overwhelmed by all of the skills and information I was learning through dialectical behavior therapy (DBT).
