Raynauds Phenomenon

The weather is starting to cooldown and leaves are starting to change where I live. The colder it gets, the more joint, muscle and neuropathic pain and fatigue I feel. I enjoyed walking with more ease during the warm summer and I would like to be as mobile and pain free as possible this winter. ****What are your recommendations for staying warm and more comfortable during the winter?****
I’m talking specific heating aids you recommend, blankets, special socks, whatever helps you that may help me and others reading this. I know the changing of the seasons can be a trigger with many chronic illnesses, so I want us to try to help each other during this transition to make it a little better than the year before. #ChronicIllness #Fibromyalgia #EhlersDanlosSyndrome #AutonomicDysfunction #RaynaudsPhenomenon

Better at giving good advice than taking it. How can I naturally give sound advice , but I have a hard time using my own advice to help myself . Why do my words tend to help others but it just goes in and out a ear when it comes to me. #depresison #MentalHealth #AutonomicDysfunction #MixedConnectiveTissueDiseaseMCTD #RaynaudsPhenomenon #RheumatoidArthritis #Anxiety

Anyone know where the off switch is ?! Brain just keeps going and going it’s Friday afternoon (530pm) and I’m still wound tight - sitting out in nature for the last hour on my swing . Trying to settle . Where is that dang switch ? #MentalHealth #Anxiety #MixedConnectiveTissueDiseaseMCTD #RaynaudsPhenomenon #RheumatoidArthritis #AutonomicDysfunction

Guidence needed: how to handle when someone asks you to stay in your lane when the only reason you feel a compulsion to act is because someone else is falling flat on there responsabies. So you agree shrink yourself (which triggers a childhood traums of always having to be presentable and on your A game but blend into the background and try not to be noticed) . As you watch things catch fire because your not stepping in to fix it. I know i am at fault - what to do. In my head its helping and being a team player.
There head im over stepping. Yet when i step back im just asked a million questions and being asked to give them validation on there decision. Its dumb. Why do i need to shrink myself - to make them feel valid but still have to hold there hand. If i decline im being petty and moody. What people don’t see is I’ve already shrunk myself due to medical I am not at the full capacity I once used to be.

Feeling …. Exactly that nothing . Have an inevitable cloud that’s been hanging around for the last couple of years. Getting harder to see the light in the lining. Stuck. Social life is non existent. Relationship is like a rock stuck in a stream. Work is driving me insane- not the work load but the people. Major communication issues in the place and my personality with my drive does not function well in the environment. Therapy helps some but spend more time talking about others than my own issues. Processing and handling things is an extreme high and I get worked up or it’s no existent and I’ve lost the ability to care. Body is the same , different days different pains . #MentalHealth #MixedConnectiveTissueDiseaseMCTD #RaynaudsPhenomenon #AutonomicDysfunction #ChronicFatigue #Anxiety #DepressiveDisorders #RheumatoidArthritis

Hi, my name is TooManySpoons. I've been diagnosed with

#MightyTogether #Migraine #RheumatoidArthritis #Scleroderma #RaynaudsPhenomenon #GastroesophagealRefluxDisease #Gastroparesis #POTS

I’ve come to the realization that I’m going to need to up my therapy sessions from bi weekly to weekly. My insurance with cover it thankfully .

I started therapy to work on healing my inner child that needless to say wasn’t great time for me . That of what I remember. Mind you I can’t remember earlier than 15 and even what I remember from 15 to current is splotchy at best. Lots of blacked out moments . I see it in photos don’t recall it etc etc .

Then when I get there lately my current life I am living is becoming of subject. To be honest I think I’ve talked more about the gray hairs a 16 almost 17 year old step daughter is giving me and the household .

I’m not even sure what I’m working on at this point besides decompressing .

Trying to pull myself out of this stagnet rut I’m in . There’s no order .
