When I first got sick my life changed alot

When I first got sick my life totally changed alot. Was a very active person. Always doing something. I would say my social life has changed alot. I can’t drive much so don’t go out much. Am to sick to invite friends over and entertain. Never can make plans and everything has to be on the spur of the moment when I am feeling good. Makes me feel like I am being a hermit! But I have learned to keep my mind busy doing things like reading, crafting, mild gardening. I do talk on the phone alot. That keeps my mind busy! But sickness of any kind that’s chronic or severe can change a persons life quickly. Making it hard at first mentally to adjust too! It’s like you have to find your soul but in a different place!
