 Coping
I was just diagnosed with PCOS about a month ago and the following poem is just some of the questions and feelings I have experienced so far. I find it helpful and a stress relief especially when feeling low or sad to write down what I'm feeling at that moment in time.
Coping
What do you do when your....
not quite whole?
not quite enough?
not quite a woman ?
How do you fight....
the disease you cannot see?
the saddness you cannot escape?
the hurt you cannot yet face?
When does...
the pain lessen?
the shame fade?
the inadequency leave?
How do I....
keep from becoming consumed by what I'm not?
find peace with what I've got?
still love myself? |
