Love from a 5 yr old #MentalHealth #ehlersdanlossyndrome #Abuse #Arthritis #BackPain #ChronicPain

My son had afternoon kindergarten and I worked 3rd shift. One mid morning he wakes me up from my nap on the couch to tell me he made me a snack. He handed me a small plate that had butter bread (thick butter), a sliced up banana (1/2 banana), and something else. He told me he made it for me because he loves me. M

Any helpful insights welcome #MentalHealth #EhlersDanlosSyndrome #Abuse #Arthritis #BackPain #ChronicPain #Bursitis #PTSD #Selfharm

Starting some time in the next month my partner and I will be getting a car. I have my license and driven often, not regular for over 10+ years. Come winter we're planning on traveling from Indiana to Virginia and then Texas. In essence my body is not used to regularly sitting in a car. Most my shopping done my others. What advice can you offer to help longer trips; other than stopping frequently to move around. Thank you all for any advice

Accept what is,
Let go of what was,
And have faith in what will be.

The best things in life aren't things.

Memories take us back,
Dreams take us forward.

Life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we react to it.

When I hear somebody sing, "Life is hard," I am tempted to ask, "Compared to what?"

Hope ya liked these. Stay strong!!!

I'm feeling very down, emotionally, but physically, I'm only experiencing a very small amount of SI pain as long as I don't move.

About 2 hours ago I sat upright and both SI joints screamed. So far today I've taken 1/6th of my strongest THC gummy, 2 CBD gummies, 200mg tramadol, and an ubrelvy. Just another day in the life of a disabled puppy boy.

Pauley did the hard part

I'm gonna bake brownies. Gluten free cottage cheese brownies. Pauley helped with the hard part, blending the cottage cheese. Now it's silky smooth.
The next step... Getting off the couch and actually going to make the brownies. I feel dead inside. I know I was very excited to make this recipe but my depression is sitting on my back. The cottage cheese was put back in the fridge for tomorrow.
I'm changing the recipe just a little bit. I'm using pudding mix instead of cocoa powder. And instead of almond flour, I'm using a different kind of GF flour. I suspect this is gonna taste fantastic.
My back pain spiked a bit, up to 8. I got half of a gummy and I asked for a peach ring CBD gummy. We looked at the pouch for the first gummy I ate and turns out it's just CBD and CBG. So she gave me half of a THC gummy and 2 more CBD peach rings. In about 30 minutes I'm gonna be feeling so much better.
