Not being able to work anymore or do things like they used to do before a relapse.
Always have learned to roll with the unpredictability of this disease. I'm a Dr, and loved my career, and lost it in 2022 due to SPMS and discrimination. Now try to spend alot of time with family and doing what I can to provide for my family. i have a goal to get back to WA, buy a boat and fish until the end, I stay flexible with my goals and dreams but never lose site of the end dream and always working to make that happen. Find a purpose that your passionate about and do whatever you can to make it happen. If you don't, you'll never regret following your passion and find lots of happiness along the journey. Our work should never be our purpose but a means to make our purpose possible and meaningful.
I've never felt like I didn't have a purpose. My husband depends on me like I depend on him. Even if I didn't have my husband, if I'm alive there is purpose in my life. Even if it's just to live the best life I can. We each have to find something in our lives that gives us purpose. It will be different for everyone.
We, have to find a new purpose, do not give up.
I agree, work is Not your purpose! Keep reinventing new ways to find your Joy! Hugs my friend for you to always find your smile! You will feel good by giving strangers a compliment and brightening some one else's day! π€πΆπ¦
