Imagine having the flu 24 hours a day 7 days a week.....

Imagine never feeling hungry or a salivating mouth or appetite......

Imagine you have just eaten a 3 course meal and you feel so full all the time that you have to vomit to realease some pressure.......

Imagine having intolerable pain in your stomach like someone has repetitively punched you in the stomach and it feels bruised.....

Imagine living off a diet of soup, meal replacement drinks and water, because anything solid will make you feel like you have eaten razor blades....

Imagine being a lab rat and the Drs test drugs in you, just in the slight hope it will relieve your intense pain, but it only makes your symptoms worse….

Imagine telling everyone that you are really sick and no one believes you or tells you it's all in your head….

Imagine being told you are depressed or suffering from anxiety, you are accused of having an eating disorder as the weight falls off your body and reveals the bare bones of you, or even the complete opposite and you mysteriously to some gain weight but what they don’t realize is it comes from the food collecting in your stomach for weeks…..

Imagine being told you have an illness that they can't fix or cure and you might feel like this forever..............

Arghhhhhh, it’s 4:31 am and I’m sitting here watching mindless tv. Law and Order SVU to be exact. Trying to summons those sheep that you apparently were told to count. Does anyone remember that? What was that all about? Lol, hope everyone else was able to sleep. FYI I am completely jealous if that is the case 😮 #Insomnia #Painsomnia #MultipleHealthChallenges #Gastroparesis #mightycontributor

I could make an excuse for my late Happy V Day but to be honest, I always have set things to accomplish in a day and when whichever Your multiple health challenge is at the moment sends your train of thought right off the rails

Hope everyone enjoyed their day however anyone does and I am wishing and sending everyone virtual hugs for V Day.

I have several well-known diagnosis' and one rare, myotonia congenita. I believe that my brother has myotonia congenita also but refuses to get genetic tests. We share some of the symptoms.

Some of the more common diagnosis' we do not share. When I try to explain how debilitating fibromyalgia, essential tremors and osteoarthritis are for me. He, as usual, says he has pain too but has no choice but suck it up and push through it. I can't seem to convince him that our pain levels or types can vary wildly. I'm not sure what to say to him at this point.

He and I are in a position now where our parents are requiring more at home care. Each have different stages of dementia. This is a delicate matter for the four of us. So I need to do my part in their care. Especially our mother who struggles if I'm not with her several times a week. During the current discussion between my brother and I he told me that he needs me to step up more. He thinks I don't know that?! I feel guilty enough for not doing what I think is enough.

Our parents live in his basement apartment and I live 10 minutes away. He now has a lake house as well. He wants to pick up and go whenever he wants without notifying me until the night before. Which means I have to pick up the slack so to speak. I wish it was easy for me to just get ready and leave my house. We all know that it's not that easy or simple. My parents have a spare bedroom but he and his wife don't want me to live with our parents. Just come over 3-4 times a week for a few hours he says. I struggle showering or even cooking for myself daily. I'm at a position where I need extra care myself. But I'm at a loss at what more I can say to him. It's a no win situation for all of us. Thank you so much for listening to me vent. Have a great day! 🙏 #Fibromyalgia #Depression #Paresthesia #Neuropathy #formication #MyotoniaCongenita #EssentialTremors #RareDisease #Osteoarthritis

My doctor (PCP) laughed in my face at my treatment-resistant major depressive disorder disabilities last night at my appointment - it was a joke to him! He ridiculed me, demeaned me, and it’s not the first time he or other doctors were not a proper medical professional when I went to them for professional care.

This one last night did this all while throwing out new physical illnesses names at me that I probably have but needs to be confirmed by bloodwork taken last night.

So, I’m much sicker Physically now and once again I cannot go back to this doctor and I haven’t yet, in all these many years, been able to find one who is a compassionate human, let alone a professional who knows what they are doing.

It should go without saying that we deserve to be treated so much better and many of us just are not, and it shatters me for all of us.

This shouldn’t be in our hands alone to Warrior through because of disgraceful doctors that show us that they are numb and apathetic to what they took a professional oath to do and that they chose to go through many vigorous years of schooling to help us, not make us worse and actually hurt us.

We shouldn’t have to keep picking up our shattered pieces of ourselves and putting ourselves back together time and again because there are way too many people, including medical professionals, who do not have a moral compass. #MightyTogether #ChronicPain #Insomnia #ChronicFatigue #MultipleHealthChallenges #PTSD #Trauma #warrior #MentalHealth #mentalhealthmatters #MentalHealthAwareness #MadeVisible #Support #Depression #ChronicDepression #MajorDepressiveDisorder #TreatmentresistantDepression #Anxiety #MyCondition #MajorDepression #MedicalProfessionals #MedicalPtsd

Hello Everyone!
Welcome to all of our new members!😃

I have dreams for this group.
I would love to see everyone sharing ideas and encouraging each other.

I apologize for not following through on my ideas for a "Basics Series" of posts to help beginners start this fabulous creative organization process.

I need help to run the Group.

Suggestions:
--A weekly journaling prompt
--A weekly post about organization ideas.
--A weekly post on different aspects of the Bullet Journal System and how it can be adapted to Mighties needs
--Sharing art

My body is shutting down due to both interior and exterior stressors. I am very ill.

I have been hospitalized multiple times since May 2021, and I have talked with my psychatric nurse tonight by phone. My psychiatrist is increasing my anxiety medication.

I need to step away from the Mighty for awhile.

I will come back, but I don't know when. Probably when my Team gives me the okay.

Know I am with you in spirit.

Blessings to you.🤗♥️
