When she found out she had lupus in her brain, the world stopped making sense, Her father forced himself on her, she thought her constipation was related to heart failure & appendicitis. Her doctor prescribed her with prednisone which would decrease the flare-ups, but her mom refused claiming it was poison & switched her to a gluten-free diet. Over time her episodes began to escalate, she had thoughts like "How can we truly live in the present if everything we did one second ago is now in the past? And if the future isn't brilliant, that means time in just in our heads and everything is eternal." She saw ghosts & felt like she was floating out of her own body, the doctor prescribed her with prednisone, her mom let her take it this time. She was given 1000 milligrams, which caused an even crazier episode, She once thought that the nurse was the devil. When the doctors found out she had SLE in her brain, they put her on olanzapine, it helped. 17, and her full Name's Christina Hope.
