I’m 31 my sister is 34 and my brother is 22 now. My mom can actually see the world better then sighted people. Not a lie.

    Almost 20 years old, was diagnosed like 10ish years ago. I’ve been losing my sight ever since elementary and at first thought my eyes were just a bit worst then everyone else’s and maybe it wouldn’t be a problem as I her older, but was I ever wrong, start of junior high I noticed my eyesight actually deteriorating, and that night vision was getting worst and my eye coordination was turning to shit as well, I use to play hockey and badminton and all sorts of sports, but barely was able to play without losing track of the balls/birdy every 2 seconds, so I faked being sick a lot in gym class to avoid certain activities. As the years went on my vision worsened and I started doing less stuff with friends and family, and stopped a lot of normal activities I woulda done, and the more I steadily started realizing that I am reaching my inevitable future, I grew very unhappy and started not to care abt anything no more.
    High school came along and instead of attending school regularly, I jus did drugs, skipped a lot, and almost completely stopped going outside after dark, unless I pretty much was forced to be out in the dark or mustered enough courage to go out with friends, and I did this my entire high school, I hid my disease from all my friends, I even hid it from my family, pretending like everything was okay. Obviously my family knows of my disease because my grandpa has it and is almost completely blind, but they think I have years until it starts to affect me, so I literally lived a double life my entire life, hiding the fact this disease actually affects me tremendously and I have never opened up about it to anyone because I’m to scared they’ll think I’m exaggerating or think I’m lying abt it, and Thas because I have been pestered for years to find a job, to go do something ‘productive with my life’ but I honestly am not some lazy kid who wants to achieve nothing in life, I jus seriously have troubles doing ANYTHING on a daily basis, and know I’m jus a liability to a lot of work places and I feel so lost, to the point where I was tired of living life, not to the point I was suicidal, but seriously mentally exhausted EVERYDAY dealing with this disease that no one even knows affects me everyday. I ended up flunking school, staying in bed pretty much all the time and barely wanting to even see my friends, but after I think forreal hitting rock bottom last year, i self reflected so much and thought abt what path I can go down from this point forward.
    So I ended up calling up my grandpa, opening up to him abt it, and telling him how it affects me, and I don’t know what I was scared of, he has the same disease as me so Of course he would be able to relate with me and understand what I’m go through everyday, and he did jus that, we have amazing calls all the time because he lives 6 hrs away from me, and he made me feel more confident in myself. Made me feel confident enough to open up to my mother abt it a few months ago and tell her that I have been going blind already and I don’t have the time like everyone thought so.
    I have been going to specialist appointments,and have one next month with a bunch of tests so I can finally see where I’m at with this disease, and maybe find some sort of new treatment Thas been getting worked on.
    In jus a few short months, I will be officially graduated, because I been taking my courses the last little bit, and I honestly don’t have a single clue what I’m going to do after that, because I don’t think working is a option, but I’m hopeful for opportunities and am trying my hardest to open up and tell people but I don’t think I’m at that stage yet, it’s to much, and I honestly don’t think I can trust anyone really with the most personal information I hold within me.
    My social life as of now is almost completely ruined because we are all getting older, getting cars, getting jobs, and our own houses, but me...I’m stuck in my mothers basement without a plan for the future after finishing my school. They constantly ask me when I’m gon move out, when I’m gon get on with my life and do something with it, and I WANT to tell them all so badly, to tell them I have been thinking about my future, even being so young, Thas all I thought abt. When we was in junior high kicking it, I was already thinking abt the hardships and the saddening future I am gon face real soon and looking for options, I was pretty woke at a young age.
    All I wish for now is a definite cure/treatment so I can do all the normal things everyone else is getting to do with their life while I’m stuck not able to do anything while the world moves on without me. I have been keeping to myself and pretty much ruined all my friendships by self sabotaging them to make it easier for me and to not fall in a pit of despair whenever my friends talk abt my future or my life.
    They say that money is the root of all evilness, and say that money doesn’t make you happy, and I have heard this throughout my life tenfold and have laughed at it in my head everytime, because money would pretty much completely turn my life, and my families life around completely because we are all jus barely making it by.
    Y’all might have thought this really fucken long comment was gon end positively, and end with me finding some inner peace and some opportunities in life to help me reach success, but I’m pretty much completely still stuck and it’s continuing to get worst, BUT what has changed is my dedication and perseverance to actually do something with my life, so I’m not giving up, but I know it just gets harder from this point forward, and I will be trying my hardest to turn it around. Even as tough and hopeless as it seems for me, or even whoever is reading this that can relate in some way, I want y’all to know you’re not alone, because god is always watching, and he will always be there for us in our dark times, you jus can’t give up and have to keep pushing to whatever endeavour you’re striving for, because when you get there, it is going to feel better than ANY drug you’ve taken, going to feel better then anything you’ve ever felt before.
    If you made it all the way through, thank you so much, and godbless you all. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

      I understand how you feel. It took a lot to write what you wrote. This is a good step for anyone with RP is to admit it. I went through a lot of the same things I am now 68 years old and have an hour P isn’t all that great but It’s not as hard as you think to live with. Remember to change the things you can change and try not to dwell on the things you cannot. You would be surprised how many friends would help you out once you admit and except that you’ve lost your vision also, protect your hearing the best you can. I wasn’t as good at doing that as I should’ve and have a little hearing loss and it is very important to keep that. Work physical and verbally and you’ll find that you can do a lot of things. Good luck.

Over the year his vision transgressed in a grade from non significant to severe losses.

    I have RP which was diagnosed at age 18 and i am now 73. Mine is monocular; left eye only. I still have 10 degrees of pretty good central vision in my left eye; the right is essentially normal and always has been. My RP specialist ophthalmologist at the UW in Seattle has done genetic testing which initially came back negative for the usual genetic culprits, but in subsequent months has revealed several genes which are present after all. This is such marvelous work being done! I know how much monocular RP impacts my functional vision, and were my RP 'normal' and affecting both eyes, i'd see very little now in my old age.

    As someone with RP as well I understand this situation. My therapy to get through it is music. My vision is still decent but terrible. If I drop certain small objects I lose track of easily and have a hard time finding sometimes due to the loss. I can still play guitar and piano which hopefully that carries over and I can still do these things if or when I lose my sight. Music works for me when life gets me down because of it. It's not easy dealing with RP and can turn things that should be fun into not so fun challenges. Not all RP patients go blind. Plenty just become more visually impaired than others and some might not even have trouble until they reach 40's or 50's. I'm 30 and it's definitely challenging but for me it's mainly the almost complete night blindness, the somewhat color blindness, if you can even call it that, and anywhere that isn't really good lighting. So I try to stay positive and just thank God I have the sight I do and let the music do the rest.

      Greetings from Chicago. What I do is I take three eggs put them in a blender with one banana one drop of vanilla extract with real cocoa no sugar I blend it I drink it and that is called complete protein. I take zeaxanthin with copper and zinc. I also take vitamin supplements for the eyes. With the doctors failed to tell us is that we need real protein to help keep it stable. And the eggs are complete protein that we need every day very easy I've had RP for five years and mine has been stabilized because of what I take

I have about 5 degrees of central vision left but in the last year my vision has gotten a lot worse as it seems that I am looking through a fog. I had cateract surgery a few years ago that helped but my vision seems to be degenerating.

    Been reading a lot of depressing comments. I've got RP, and yeah it's tough, it sucks, dark times, etc. But holding out hope for a cure is no way to live. Maybe one will come, maybe not. Best not to linger on it. Got to adapt. Get a cane, it's an adjustment but a huge quality of life improvement. Miss sports? Get into blind sports like goal ball. Don't let this shit beat you, it's just a wall you've got to work around. It only sucks because everybody tells you it sucks, but its not a bad life. You just live differently. I meet other folks with RP who are old and bitter. I don't want to end up like that, so I won't. It's a journey, that's for sure. Not easy. But getting down about it doesn't change anything.

My brother is a dentist, and earns 7 figures, I am in finance and also earn 7 figures. Others have had it worse than you and I. Do the best you can and God will open doors for you.
