Hello...not sure this is the right place to post this, so feel free to shift it...
I was diagnosed with Lupus about 7 years ago, and before that I was independant, assertive, ambitious and dominant...a bit of an ENTJ if you know the Myers Briggs thing.
When the Lupus hit, it really did devastate me...I just gave up mentally, and my personality changed completely...I became dependant, weak and submissive, and I stayed that way for a while.
I am now trying to recover mentally...to get back the parts of my personality that Lupus took from me, but it is causing chaos in my relationships - so many people are not used to the real me! Has anyone else had this kind of experience? How did you cope? Let me know...I am feeling very lonely and lost here!
