Willow, I haven't checked in for a while, but you have certainly been in my thoughts...I love you. The devil is a punk. Try to keep in mind that you are SO loved. Squeeze your family for me, k?
Its 2am and I am viewing all of your blogs. Thanks for sharing.I think a daily health journal would benefit u.U can down load a drawing of a human body front/back & draw lines to areas that hurt,bedtime/wake up,naps,feelings. I did it for 2yr & noticed a cycle of flare ups during certain seasons. I have Lupus, relapsing polychondritis, fibromyalgia, asthma and sleep apnea. Focus on blessings u have,how much kids/loved ones need u to be strong.
lupus does suck I have lived with it since age 13 till present it has been 19 years. I was just a young boy when it struck me. The doctors missdiagnosed it and the lupus killed my kidneys. Since I have had 2 kidney transplants my latested affliction is diverticulitis the hits keep comming and I keep fighting I pray brighter days are ahead for you. get some rest
I have many of these days then I snap out of it. Most people who don't have lupus or anything similar don't understand. Depression sneaks up on you sometimes with no warning.
Well here is a great big HUG...I too understand about feeling like crap..hurting all the time and not being able to sleep. I try to tell myself that there are millions of people in the world worse off then me. There are people dying in battlefields, children starving to death, people fighting cancer and I could go on forever. I could break down and cry for myself but I remind myself that I could be worse off.
Im sorry youre going thru these bad days, re: depression, I have been there lately too. Uck. Nothing you can really say about it because its confusing and sucks. But it's better we know those others who have this annoying disease understand us. Hugs. Feel better quiet one. :)
Hi there, I say the same thing.I get so tired of having Fibromyalgia and hurting all the time.I have some of the same sleep and depression problems due to having the pain all the time.The severe pain is so hard to deal with.I hope the rest of your day is nicer and you start feeling better....PS I always enjoy your videos even if you just want to vent. Take care
I know, we all know you did not choose this,or want to feel depressed.Things sometimes just happen,and we take it from there.I want to remind you of your positive outlook!! You are always so strong and centered and have handled this ilness better than most!! Allow yourself a moment of weakness...we are all human,it really is okay.Like you said dont just overindulge in negative feelings and emotions cause you do know where they lead. Know that I love and care for you greatly!!!! This will pass!
I hear you and I understand. You're very brave for making a video like this. It's natural to feel sad and I'm trying to allow myself to express whatever I feel but I also know that I can't afford to dwell on those feelings and thoughts. I want to get into meditation but I get anxious when I concentrate on my breathing. It reminds me that I'm stuck in this body. Hugs, Max.
