My therapist diagnosed me with #AnorexiaNervosa (Nos). I have been restricting for awhile now and I am obsessing over the scale and I fear of getting fat. I’m constantly weighing myself. I just don’t want to be who I was when I was married. I lost a lot of weight when I stopped drinking soda and since I walk every day. Since started Caplyta I been dropping weight. I also reversed my #Diabetes so that was good.
I've got a telehealth appointment tomorrow with my doctor to go over my lab results. They're pretty bad. She's gonna be cross that I haven't found an Endo yet. I'm on a really high dose of insulin. It's not helping. But it's making me gain weight really fast. It's kinda scary.
But I'm gonna talk to her about getting me a proper rescue inhaler. I've got dulera but that's just twice per day. When I go up and down the stairs or walk for more than 5 minutes I can't catch my breath.
I'm gonna get a refill of my Norco. I've been trying to contact my previous back surgeon but they haven't responded to my 2 emails and phone calls. As long as I am making an attempt, my doctor will refill my meds. I've only been taking maybe 5 per week. I'm trying to use my tramadol more often. I'm not addicted. And I intend on staying that way.
My doctor is concerned about my lymphedema and high blood pressure. I told her how my cardiologist is handling it and she's kinda pissed. The new meds aren't working. And I had a low symptoms day on Tuesday so my cardiologist thinks everything is fine. And even after emailing her pictures of my pitting lymphedema, I haven't heard back.
I'm so frustrated. And my anxiety is making me sick. I'll talk to my doctor about how bad my adjustment disorder is. Maybe she'll have an idea. She's a good doctor.

Hello! I am Novastarr 😊. I found this app after reading a post about loneliness in an MS Society email. I have been pretty down and out lately, wanting to do nothing but play games on my iPad. I go days at a time without checking my email or doing anything slightly resembling productivity. I’m glad I got motivated today and found this group to give me somewhere to express myself to people who understand it all!

Your path is yours alone. Measuring it against someone else’s only steals your joy. Success, happiness, and growth look different for everyone. Instead of focusing on where others are, focus on your progress, your wins, and what truly fulfills you. The only person you need to be better than is the person you were yesterday.
What’s one personal win you’re proud of today? Celebrate it in the comments!
~ Thanks to all. Thanks for all. ~

What you eat doesn’t just affect your body—it impacts your energy, mood, and mental clarity.
Junk food can leave you sluggish and unfocused, while the right foods fuel your brain for better sleep, ambition, and overall well-being. The tricky part? Your body adapts to whatever you regularly eat, so if you’re used to low-quality food, you might not even realize how much better you could feel.
Pay attention to how food makes you feel. Experiment with healthier choices, and see the difference in your energy and mindset.

Physical health diets and exercises are just as important as mental health ones. When we eat poorly, we feel sluggish, weak, and sometimes can't sleep. The same thing happens to our mind. If you feel this way, I'd recommend evaluating what sorts of things you are consuming mentally.
Consider if you are engaging in too much social media, online shopping, arguing, negative news, gossip, or anything else that doesn't settle well with you. What would be a good way for you to cleanse your mental health diet and be more healthy?

How many times have you been upset with someone—not because they did something wrong, but because they didn’t know what you wanted?
Misunderstandings often come from unspoken expectations. We assume others can read between the lines, but the truth is, clear and honest communication is key. Being open about what you need isn’t a weakness, it’s a strength. When you communicate with honesty and kindness, people will respect you more and respond in kind.

Progress isn’t about speed, it’s about persistence. Even the smallest steps forward bring you closer to where you want to be. Some days will be harder than others, but what matters is that you keep going. Trust the process, be patient with yourself, and remember that consistency is more powerful than perfection.
What’s one small step you’re taking toward your goals today?

Before the week takes off, take a moment to ask yourself: What do I actually want to accomplish?
A little planning goes a long way. It helps you stay focused, anticipate challenges, and make real progress—whether it’s in work, personal life, or just having more fun.
Intentions without action are just dreams. Write them down and make them happen.
