Denial

Denial is a place of safety for people to hide. Sometimes, with HD, people don't want to look it with eyes open. They just can't be real. This is one of the hardest disease's for people,to see it exist. The family, the patient, all want to hide. That is why it has the highest suicide rates out of any genetic illness. Or people cope in negative ways. We should never let denial take over our life. You have to open those eyes. Get ride of that fear. You can't live with that much pain, that your being hurts. Accept HD. We have HD. It is here. It is part of us. We have to mindful of HD. Why live a life in pain, when you can reach for the light? It is better in the sun. Not with fear carrying you down. Accept HD, then you can live. If you never accept, you live a life, that will never be happy. My family never was in denial. I new at grade 5, that I was at risk. It is not fun to be lifeless, with no dreams. Start living. Start making goals. Start living. Start dreaming. Make your dreams happen. Only we can control our life. Only we, can make it worth while. Fight denial. Take about it. Talk to anyone, that well listen. Don't keep HD a secret. It will ease your mind to get things out. Everyone and there dog, knows I have HD.
