I’ve been plagued by a severe sleep disorder that robs me the golden decade for developing an intimate relationship with someone special, getting married and having a family, etc. Because of this dreadful illness, I am still single at the age which many guys would be married and become parents.
I’ve been sick for more than ten years now and still there is no cure I know of and no end in sight. I always think of the story of Joseph when I ponder on my own lengthy adversity. It gives me hope and comfort. It soothes me a bit spiritually, though the physical pain persists. There is no other way to deal with it on a daily basis. I walk the earth alone, at least physically.
What is adversity to you and how do you deal with it. Please share. Thanks and God bless.

I'm sorry for your struggle and hope you will find peace. It doesn't seem nearly as grievous as your disorder is but I have gone through what seems to have been some sort of mental impairment which may cause others to be not accepting of me which may prevent marriage, etc. I deal with it by trusting in Him. His words are hope and comfort to me in my days of sadness, which are many.
In my perspective, adversity is the demonstration of the limited power of Satan in this world. What I have gathered thus far is that God allows it and one reason is to temper our attachments to this world so that we can enjoy His presence forever in the next. Doesn't mean a whole lot if one only believes this world is all there is, and I can definitely understand why someone would believe that. Yet this world is so empty and every day it seems to become more deranged. It is too bad if this is all there is since it is nothing anyway.
When I have a physical issue...I call my buddy, a fellow healer, and get a healing.
I am a stubborn person of faith...knowing 100% nothing is impossible to God
And His will is for me to happy, healthy and abundant in all ways.
Sorry, can't budge me from this truth.
There is no room anywhere in me for silly doubt.
Wouldn't be much of a healer if there was!!! Ha!
AIDS, cancer, sleep disorder, all the same to God.
Piece a cake.
I find my words usually cause others to get upset and want to
refute them in some way...so I'll be on my way, but, you asked.
Well...personally I take it as a part of my journey and try to learn from it. I was really anxious all through college until I learned that it signified I was going too fast or thinking too much or placing too many expectations on myself.
My perception is that it's a life challenge that I either learn to overcome or accept based on the circumstance/situation. Paying attention to patterns is how I decide what to do. But I don't allow it to become a barrier.
While I am not a theist and your information is not that detailed, I would think that there is a cure in the scientific world rather than in faith.
Just a long shot in the dark, if you perhaps have an over active thyroid or under active, that can lead to sleep disorders. The treatment is cheap and it works.

My adversity is with finances, I've never mastered them but I'd sure like to do so before I expire.
As for your adversity, it's very nice that you are considerate of your future partner's well-being. With that being said, for the right person your sleep disorder will not be much of a problem ( note: walking in your sleep is a problem no matter what) and you can aid this by wearing a CPAP, etc. or you might try my personal favorite....separate bedrooms.

Silly freethinker that's too logical! don't u know for every 20,000 people that die of cancer 1 million pray for them, and yet 20,000 still die of cancer.. Just hang on to that story of Joseph.. Sunny days are ahead.
