In to much pain to sleep

I’m so fed up with my body at times I just want to be pain free. My legs feel like there being crushed.
Fuck you Dysautonomia

I’d really love if anyone was awake to chat and distract me

Tip Tuesday 💡- What if the Bravest Thing You Can Do Today is Let Go of Control?

Sometimes, being in control makes us feel better. But it's not always healthy to need to be in control. It can actually make us feel more stressed, anxious or feel worse. How would your day be different if you re-framed it? What if bravery actually looks like letting go?

I’m new here!

Hi, my name is Petal.
A while ago I got pregnant and then after a bit of a rough pregnancy, I ended up with dysautonomia. ended up losing my job amd my marriage because my health was just so unstable. not that the marriage part was my fault.He just didn't want a sick wife. but now I stay at home all day, hoping something will work out. i'm hoping I can just find someone to talk to. I lost my ability to drive and a lot of people don't really come to visit.

advice regarding glp-1s

Its been a long time since Ive posted but Im thinking about starting a glp-1 medication if Il approved by doctors. I have been struggling with my weight and binge eating for the last few years. I now weight over 15 stone and Im only 5’5 so I am very overweight. My m.e/cfs, fibromyalgia and dysautonomia make my binge eating worse because when Im feeling so unwell binging seems to be my bodys first response.

Being so overweight is making me very depressed. I’m in therapy, Ive tried hypnotherapy, CBT, Slimming World, Weight Watchers and counting calories. Nothings worked or I will lose 5-7 pounds and then I will spiral again and gain it back. Im not starting to feel the effects of being overweight so I know I desperately need to do something about it. I constantly think about food and I mainly want to try glp-1 to see if it quiets down that horrible voice in the back of my head that shouts about food 24/7.

For me Ive been pretty anti glp-1 because I keep hearing all these horror stories even though I know the medication had worked for millions of people and every medication has side effects. Im just scared but Ive also reached a point where I cant go on like this.

So, any advice (good or bad) please share with me. If you’ve tried it or if you haven’t but something else worked for you, please let me know. Thank you in advance
