ive read all the posts on here and some are quite frankly inspirational but the bottom line is when you are dead there is peace and no suffering.I know a few cf people and if someone gave them a crystal ball to look at their life prior to living people with this this condition would not opt to live the life that cf brings upon them

Now Ricky, this is where I have to disagree. <br>
Think about all of the things that you've learned from having CF. How much wiser and more experienced you have become because of your CF. I am in no way saying it's a good thing to have CF, but you have to take things in stride and try to look at the bright side of things (yes, that sounds cheesy).<br><br>
We are all dying, CFers and non-CFers alike. And those of us with shorter lifespans have just as much purpose as those with normal life spans. We understand life and death more than normal people.<br><br>
Anyway, I'm just talking in circles, what it comes down to is, this is something that you have to discover yourself, because nobody can accept life for you, so I hope that you find your purpose. <br>Take care buddy.

Hey CFboy,
I don't know one person with a disease or condition who hasn't, at one point in their life, felt this way. I definately know when i was younger i was angry at the fact that i had medical stuff wrong with me and resented those that didn't. I wanted to die too. I think it comes with the territory. Do not give up. You are going through this for a reason. You're feeling these things b/c there IS a light at the end of this dark tunnel and you WILL see the positive. It may take some time, but it's the darkest days of our lives that make up for the brightest days in the future.
It sounds dumb, but it will happen. Eventually you will get sick of feeling this way - trust me. Try to see the light. If there are other people on this board who have the same condition as you, who are perfectly happy, functioning, life-loving people, then there is no reason why you can't be too.
I wish you luck.

Anyone could ask this CF or not. I mean we are all gonna die right? Anyone could say "what is the point of being here". The true "point" is to win people to God. I mean nothing else techinically matters. We are suppose to be here to do Gods work. So I guess if you do that why you are here than great, However its the experiences that make it worth while. Yes have an illness does sometimes make the thought of death loom ahead and we feel like we have a "timeline" and an "age" limit. But hey so does everyone else. I mean techinically we have the advantage, right. We get to be prepered. Honey I would just try to live. I struggled with depression/cutting for a while. Until one day I realzed It wasn't helping me either. That I could be a more preductive person and since I'm here do soemthing with it. Whether it be studying up for God, or being a good Wife. I have my days where I'm like man whats the point. But then I remeber I may not see it be he does (God) and my family see the point so if I don't wanna do it for me I do it for them. I think it would be good for you to read more into the bible. God says there will be a better life on earth when he comes to get us. (until he returns we lay in the ground...dead) so I think that what we are going through now trains us to be better when he gets here (make sense)
