When I was a case manager for the mentally ill, I could always relate to them, and although I never actually told them how I was suffering on the inside with my kidney disease, or major depression it's almost like they knew... never judging.

"Hard to explain to someone who has no clue. Or doesn't believe you. It's a daily struggle being in pain or feeling sick on the inside while you look fine on the outside. Please put this as your status for at least 1 hour if you or someone you know has an invisible illness (Pancreatitis, Crohn's, PTSD, Anxiety, Bipolar, Depression, Diabetes, LUPUS, Fibromyalgia, MS, ME, Arthritis, Cancer, Heart Disease, Kidney Disease, Epilepsy, ADHD, Autism,M.D. Evan Syndrome etc.) " Never judge what you don't understand!!!!!!"

True words spoken.  We should never judge a book by it's cover.

When you're healthy it's hard to imagine being sick.

I've come to really hate the words, "You look so good!"    :banghead;

I quite appreciate looking okay, I feel even worse when people say I look terrible.
