Im not suicidal or nothing crazy just wondering if anyone out there thinks about dieing and that kind of stuff. I do all the time and I dont know if its normal. Im 18 and I know the life expectancy is like mid 30s or something, That means im more then halfway done life if i live up to the normal and I already took alot of years off my life doing dumb stuff like drinkig, drugs and not doing my meds and treatments. The other night I was thinking to myself that im not even going to be old enough to have a mid life crisis lol. Anyone feel the same?

I can totally understand what you are saying. Those thoughts do cross my mind every now and then- especially now that I have children. I am 27 years old, and sometimes I think....will I be around in 5 years? Will I get to see my kids grow-up and have babies of their own? Will I leave my daughter and son with no mommy early?
I try to focus on the present, but the future does cross my mind.
I did really dumb stuff too at your age, mainly non-compliance with meds. I hope it didn't take too many years off of my life. All I can do now is try my best to remain as proactive and compliant as possible about my health (that and pray for a cure!!!).

Q. Anyone feel the same?
A. EVERYDAY!!!
I was very young and stupid too. Now that I'm "old" at 31, i can't say that i'm not oozing with regrets and what-ifs, because i am. But i guess we can learn from our past and keep moving forward, right?
Take care
p.s. you'll have a midlife crisis, don't worry <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

It's hard not to think about it when all your life you have been given numbers saying you will only live to be x years old. I have thought about it often, when I was to get married and was told I would probably live another 10yrs or so. When we were considering having children and questioning if I should and would I be around to raise them. It is only natural to question ones mortality. I think it is just a little more in the forefront for a person with a chronic/incureable illness. Oh and as for you midlife crisis, you already had, now time to take care of yourself.
