By sharing your story, you bring people together through shared experiences. Since the AN journey is so unique, this is an incredibly important kind of support. Family or close friends may not fully understand the emotional complexities related to your diagnosis. But, when you tell your story to others in the AN community, they understand. They can relate. They can empathize. They can say, “I’ve been there”.

Even patients with a strong support system sometimes feel alone. A story that resembles theirs provides comfort and community. That’s why it’s essential to speak up. Every AN story is important and your story could be invaluable to someone. Your story has power - it helps raise awareness and encourages others.
