Find things that make you happy, and not just short term. Whatever goals you have for your life, go for them. I always dreamed about being a housewife and a mother. I found a wonderful man whom I married and we're working towards having a family. Before I met him, I was exhibiting destructive behaviors and in an abusive relationship because I thought no one else could love me with the way I was. I was so wrong! Your diagnosis does not define you and no goal is out of reach!
