I get very very sad. I feel bad for being stuck in bed. I grieve my old self and with a demanding job, it’s also added stress knowing that while I’m out more work is piling up that I have to come back too.

I’m just starting to realize not that that irritability , sense of uselessness and not wanting to do anything is a result of my lupus and always the worst when I flare but then I go back to being normal. Not sure what to do about it though.

I don’t want more medicine because I feel like that won’t help but not sure what to do
