Hi Amber. I'm 23 and have had bladder problems all of my life. I know what you mean with the social obstacles you're having to overcome. When I started high school I went into a pretty bad isolation and I really didn't start to feel better for years. Things have improved a lot for me socially, but I still struggle with low self esteem in a lot of ways. But I guess things get better with time. Each small challenge you overcome prepares you deal with a bigger challenge. I try my hardest to make sure that my problems don't keep me from doing what I really want to do. Some things are harder to manage than others, but sometimes you just have to open yourself up and jump in. Anyway, that's all stuff you deal with in counseling, but I just wanted to say that there are others that understand what you're going through, and things can get better! My email is jared_txam@hotmail.com if you'd like to write sometime.
