Just because it’s hard doesn’t mean it’s impossible. Here are some ways to find new friends who will support you.
It can be hard to realize you have a shortage of friends in adulthood. You know you’re not an unlikable hermit but so much gets in the way—work, school, family duties, or even the fear of putting yourself out there—that it can be difficult to make and foster friendships. If you add a chronic illness into the mix, it’s even more challenging.
It’s nobody’s business! But when you’re ready to tell a new friend about your chronic condition, it’s okay to be honest about your boundaries and limitations, and to embrace the vulnerability that comes with that, says Katie Willard Virant, MSW, LCSW, a psychotherapist practicing in St. Louis, Missouri. She has lived with Crohn’s disease since she was a teenager and specializes in treating people with chronic conditions.
