the mental behind the physical #oneinthesame #mentalandphyscial

So I’m currently having a really rough couple weeks physically. I have been having terrible gastrointestinal issues my entire life that seem to just be getting worse. The last month has been a living hell. I can barely eat because the smell of food makes me nauseous and when I do eat I end up sick one way or another. I have been dealing with this along with a long list of disorders and illnesses I have already been diagnosed with.

Nobody seems to know what to do or what is going on. I try my best to work full time however times like these I can’t work I have to be home because I’m so sick. I have FMLA, but as we all know that doesn’t pay you. so now I have the stress of missing work and losing out on money. I can’t seem to find a legitimate job I can work from home that provides insurance. I feel like it’s just a never ending cycle.

My mental health is suffering from all this stress. and not to mention the fact I’m not sleeping enough because I’m stressed out or I’m getting sick.

I swear being chronically ill you never get a break! There is always something.

Does anyone have any tips for better posture for mental health sufferers? #situp #chinup

I have appalling self esteem, dyspraxia, and mental health issues. This has affected how I hold myself - especially how I stand and sit. I am becoming quite round shouldered. I wondered whether anyone had any tips to help. Exercises are great, however if it is very difficult to brush your teeth, it can be extremely difficult to engage with exercises. I sleep with a pillow in-between my legs at night currently. #posture #mentalandphyscial #Selfesteem #Selfconfidence #Cyclothymia #Dyspraxia #Anxiety #Depression
