I'm 17 years old and some days I wake up feeling like I am 60. My body aches and I can barely get out of bed in the morning. I go to doctors who tell me there is nothing wrong with me. I never test all positives for arthritis, lupus, and many other illnesses. I have to live with the fact that pregnancy's could be life threatening and serious accident and injuries could cost me my life. And everyday I somehow get out of bed and put a smile on my face and go to school and work and pretend nothing is wrong.  People and doctors will say I do it for attention and it's because I'm depressed. And I know that if they had to be in my shoes for an hour-they would barely know how to survive the pain.
