STRENGTH IN THE STRUGGLES

Life with hyperacusis:

My days are often cut short; cut short by noise if you can believe it. I find myself wanting to be so productive with my assignments but my body is weak and slows down as the day gets later. And as each night comes, the random and unexplainable pain floods my head. My ears ring, migraines come, and I struggle to keep my eyes open, not necessarily out of tiredness but because I fail to concentrate on literally anything- all the daily symptoms of hyperacusis. I used to get so angry when this would happen but now I consider it as a blesssing in disguise. Through the pain, God gives me a break from the busyness of life and calls me to rely on Him. Even now, He gives me just enough energy to write this and find strength in the struggles.
