Coping

Do you find it difficult to sustain your relationships because of sickle cell?? How do you cope with lonely days?

  1. I just started talking to someone new and he has been super supportive. He's asking questions and reading about sickle cell. I never really dated a so this is all new but I made sure I was up front with him even though I haven't had a crisis in almost 5 years.

    1. awww that’s so sweet.. enjoy every bit of it sissy🥰🥰

  2. Anime and video games were my best friends 😅

    1. I have a #SickleCellTribe, other patients in the community who I have similar interest with. They’ve become my sickle sisters and they understand that loneliness better than anyone else. Music, cooking and films are also a good way to fill up those isolating days. If you ever need a friend, always here to help.

      1. I always need new friends and someone to talk to sis.. please add me up to your group. I would be delighted to be a member 😊❤️
