Having Still's Disease has changed my life so much over the past year and a half. Not only physically,but emotionally and psychologically. The relationships that I had with my family has only been strengthened by this challenging experience. I found out that the people that I thought were my real friends turned out to be superficial and selfish people. Others, that I least expected to so supportive have helped me so much during the long, tough and painful days have been sensational. I know know myself so much better than before the onset of Stills. I no longer take the same "crap" that people feel they can give me. I think that after everything I've been through over the past year I deserve a lot better, which has really helped me to be more assertive. I am however, more impatient with people, especially when they tell me that they are feeling sick and all they have is a runny nose!!

I'm very optomistic about the future, however, I have just come to realise that I am never going to make a full recovery and be the same person I was 2 years ago. This has been a very difficult realisation but with the help of everyone around me and this site I know I'll get there!
