I need help dealing with family and life's frustration

[Guest guest]

I'm 25 years old and need help with how to deal with family. I have a

tethered cord and been thru 4 surgery's. Each time it only took about

6 months to recover and be up walking again but this last one has

taken over 2 years of full time PT. With my new PT program I am

FINALLY showing faster (Still slow for me) signs of improving but

still on a walker.

What is difficult is walking up every morning knowing that everything

I do that day is going to be difficult. And when something no matter

how small it is goes wrong or is harder I get frustrated and my mood

changes. And when that happens I snap when my parents tell me to " get

over it " or " move on, your frustration is making it worse, you are

making your life harder " Basically my parents no matter how much pain

I'm in, how little of sleep I got or how hard it is for me to take a

step, want me to suck it up, move past it and be happy/positive/smile.

But I cant, no matter how hard I try. I'm working out 5 to 6 hours a

day to walk again and I'm at this point " Is it really worth all this

frustration "

I'm sorry but if you are not dealing with a TC you have no idea what

we deal with every day. So how do I get this point across to my

family? Since they feel they know exactly what I am going thru since

they have been going thru this with me since I was 13.

I need help because I'm really tired of being in a constant shitty

mood because I have been told by my parent that its my fault I'm still

battling recovery due to my frustration. Soon I'm afraid I'm just

going to give up!
