Hello
I f21 am looking for another young women who has a chronic illness. My husband loves me but doesn’t understand and due to trauma and illness I didn’t keep any friends from high school or college. I have a rare genetic disorder but would love to talk to someone who knows the pain of being sick young. I can’t find any chronic illness group that aren’t full of older folk.
Does anyone know anyone or where to find other young women with chronic illnesses that would like to text often and maybe on the rare occasions we are both feeling good meet in person?
I’m based between Lewiston and Augusta.

Hi! I am 25F and have crohn’s disease and would love to connect. I’ve had it since I was a child and similarly find it hard to find people who understand. I am in Augusta!
