What I found for me, when I was starting out…true friends supported me. Those that didn’t, i walked away from. What I found in the end, my life was better with out them.

Chronic pain is extremely mentally and physically exhausting. I’m so sorry you’re dealing with it, I suffer as well and it just seems so unfair. Here in the US some people use Botox for migraine relief. Not sure if it’s an option by you. As soon as I get insurance I want to give it a try. I really hope they figure it out soon and you get some relief. lähettämällä rakkautta ja halauksia!

I’m so sorry, I’ve recently gone through the same. When my husband and I split I felt I would never survive the grief. However, I had been through it once before and I knew time would heal it. Give yourself time to grieve and if possible talk with a therapist. It’s a wild roller coaster of emotions right now, and it’s going to take some time. Be kind to yourself. Keep coming here as quite a few of us have been through the same and can be of support. Hang in there friend.

Checking in. Going back to work clear eyed and focused on day 11. Kids are returning to school here, the first day since the state closed down in March due to the pandemic. Lots of nervous parents and weird safety protocols. Fortunately, we live in a low COVID state. Still, stress is high. Strength and peace to all dealing with this whether parents, teachers or staff. This, too, shall pass, right? RIGHT???

60 days is quite an accomplishment and inspiring to people like me!
Hi Jenna - believe me, I know how much chronic pain can weigh us down, how it can eat away at you over time. My ongoing back issues made me feel like I couldn’t go out and live, like my life was done. The constant anxiety and ache made me prone to being snippy and irritable. I also know what its like to see all kinds of doctors and specialists, but feel like you’re getting nowhere and can’t get answers or treatment that works. SO FRUSTRATING!
I’m not a doctor, have no personal experience with migraines, and obviously everyone’s situation is different. Not sure what its like where you are, but in the US, I have read that many people get Botox injections to fight migraines. From what I have read and heard second-hand, it seems to work for many people where other treatments have failed.
Again, definitely not a doctor, and theres probably others here that know way more about it than I do. Just something that came to mind, maybe worth mentioning to your doctor to discuss as an option.
Other than that, all I can say is keep trying. It took me 2.5 years of back pain/stiffness (and many physios, chiropractor, neurosurgeons, neurologists, etc…thousands of dollars spent) to finally find a physio (my 3rd) that actually seems to be working. Its only been a few weeks but I am cautiously optimistic based on results so far. Turns out one of my legs is shorter than the other and NONE of the doctors had noticed before. Fixing that seems to be allowing my body to heal back into alignment. Its so frustrating, and so hard somedays I know, but keep trying!

Good morning all! Day 11 today. I’m going to have a productive, good day. Yesterday I let fear and getting ahead of myself make me an anxiety ridden mess and steal my joy. Not today satan. I’m just happy to still be here sober, and I get more clear headed every day. I hope you all have an amazing sober Tuesday!
