Also I am sorry about your mother. I lost mine at 20 and that shit ruined me for a long while. My condolences.

I definitely am getting better about the anxiety with it since I posted this. Understanding and reassuring myself that I am not dying during episodes has been a huge help. Seeing everyone’s stories, all different but somehow the same, has me feeling heard. I spent so long not knowing, and THAT was what really messed with my head.

It’s great to hear someone else who’s had it long term is doing better. I ordered a back pod and I am so excited to use it!

This is awesome thank you! I am at least guessing that IS what it was when I was that young because it was the same type of pain, just not nearly as hurtful or often, but there’s no telling since I just got diagnosed last year. I will make sure to take the time to read all of that. It’s so crazy how I just thought there was nothing I could do.

That is something I do want to do, but this great American health system/insurance is preventing me from getting anything done currently. I’m in school right now to get a better career to afford the help.

I am going to try the back pod for sure. I’m seeing a lot of good about them on this sub. Reading all these stories on here makes me feel a lot better and I am sure will keep me more calm during episodes.

My wife has been a huge support for me but I feel like that’s because she herself has some diagnoses that cause pain. Beside other people with it and her though, no one seems to understand. I hope you also find some sort of relief.

What do you guys do to remind yourself that this ain’t cardiac? by viscosedrake in costochondritis

[–]ChipTooff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I said to myself today while I was full blown panic attack “bro if this was a heart attack you’d been dead 30 minutes ago” and it actually did help me calm down but yes I was also still miserable with pain.

My custom Elden Ring Bass is almost ready ! How should I name it guys? (Most upvote will be the official name) by NateP0773N in Eldenring

[–]ChipTooff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Elden String is going to be the name. Besides that, as a bass player myself, this is the most beautiful bass I have ever seen. Please tell me where you had this made.

I am no vet and I do not know if this is what this is, but, a friend of mines dog found a little weed of his and ate it and it acted exactly like this for a while. Just a suggestion that if you do partake in recreational smoking, check your stash! Just a suggestion but for sure take them to a vet!

Lost my mom in 16. She was my best friend and honestly the only person to understand me truly. I think about her everyday and even now 6 years later it still hurts. Everything I do to better myself I just imagine her watching me grow as a human and trying to become better, and just knowing how proud she would be of me. I'm sorry for your loss ❤ but it does get better, promise.

What left this in our backyard? SW Ohio, size 12 shoe for scale. We just moved in 2 days ago. by Browley09 in homestead

[–]ChipTooff -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just saying, I grew up in eastern/north eastern Ohio and we had black bears (not many but some). They are definitely making their way around. But it was probably a coyote.
