It's okay to have limits to how far you are willing to go for care

This is something I'm learning and I think is an important reminder for everyone. It's okay to have limits on how much care and interventions you're willing to receive. Just because treatment exists doesn't mean you have to take it. It is your life and your body. You absolutely can set limits. Things are allowed to just become to medical for you and you are allowed to say enough is enough with medical interventions. You are allowed to set that DNR even if you're young. It is okay to have limits. It's okay if others don't agree with these limits. Now there is a point of limits not being reasonable for various reasons you should probably talk to a therapist about. But at the same time if you're facing a lot of possible future medical interventions due to serious underlying disease it's okay to be setting limits. Like I face possibly needing a permanent trach and I've decided that's just a line I won't cross. I'm not dealing with that for the rest of my life. I know plenty of people living full life's with them but it's just not for me. That's okay! Set your limits and know where they are and be okay with them and confident in them even if others aren't.
