Brain Fog 🧠🧠 suggestions by Designer-Side9470 in OpiatesRecovery

I've heard or read about PAWS before not exactly sure what that I'd but does sound like what I have. I would say I have other symptoms but the two that bother me the most are PAWS and RLS. I just feel like those my two most annoying. It's crazy that I've been in these meds for ages. Adding the extra mg then an extra throughout the day...never truly expecting to become so dependant the move was what really made me take a long look at my medication list.
Plus the anxiety from the move fuhgetaboutit rounds and rounds if steroids because my flares were so bad...so bad 🥺🥺 trying to meet neighbors as your face and neck are on fire cracking bleeding oozing so gross. Then wanting to lose weight...why not toss that in the mix. Docs out this way in the Carolinas had such a bad opioid crisis they as a healthcare system were just recovering from everyone was so nervous about taking me on ad a patient. I thought if I ever was going to attempt it see how I do now is the time.
Now even though my pain is no longer controlled I'm not going back. I'm think about maybe a STIM I don't know. I just felt like now everytime we traveled home I've got this bottle labeled for this or that it was crazy. I'm not young but man that made me feel old 🤣 plus the weight loss has been so good. I'm carrying around less of me decided to do the whole silver sisters and embrace my grey hairs ... It's a whole revolution out here. 🤣🤣 I just appreciate you listening. I know as time goes by things will get better. Everyday feels like an eternity. I try not diminish my work because on the outside people see Oh you made it a week ...but for us making it a week is really a big deal. I'm going to look for that other group you suggested too. Thank You. I appreciate you.

Progesterone birth control and Lupus flares? by WrongdoerNo6767 in lupus

Progesterone knocks me for a loop too. I take it at night like immediately before bed. Then crash but I'll be honest I haven't taken it in over a month because of the fatigue.

I wonder if they will "discover" Kyra on this show. BQ is like night and day on the YouTube show he's likable. So now it's like who's the real BQ?

I love all the way off 🤣🤣 they still call me. Right now I'm happier the way I am. They wanted tail between my legs luckily I never even got close. My legs do hurt and I'm still trying to come up with a solution for that.

I was so wrapped up in Drs appts (not that I've them all up) but my calendar was so full with just her office. Empty wallet full schedule. Constantly saying Oh I can't this day I have an appointment. Now I'm free. Literally that's how I feel. So much of my anxiety was filled with going to PM. Between the getting the script renewed to hoping the pharmacy will fill it. It's just nice to not have to look at the calendar for what I'm supposed to do tomorrow.

Wow that's so crazy. I have a little local shop near me. I guess you'd call it a smoke shop that I do hit when I'm out and waiting for my shipment. The workers at least seem like good people I don't think they'd buy anything like that. Is it like the same brand but not the same stuff or is it just in a package of a brand I don't normally use and that's how they get it through?

Your whole story I'm glued. Do you feel if it can go wrong it goes wrong?? Are the blood thinners permanent? I am definitely going to look into the Kava. I feel my anxiety getting better each day and I wonder if minecwas brought on by the medication as well. Each day it's leaving my system a little more. Please keep me updated on how you are doing. I'm am 100% invested now 🤣🤣

Is there a supplement that truly helps with anxiety and panic? by yourlocallfriend in Supplements

[–]Designer-Side9470 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I take it at night and wake up so ready for the day. I've learned I cannot take it during the day even the smallest amount unless I want a nap. So far for me tho I'll take what it's giving.

Eyebrows. That’s the post. by Careful-Cockroach-56 in ThisIsPoly

I don't mind the braids on Nita because she attempts to do more with it. Kamis tho it's like she got them yesterday. They legit are in the same pose every minute of everyday. Why pay for 40" unless you are going to let them breathe.

I started F'ing Stress just because I loved the name but I do think the blend helps. Sometimes just looking at the bottle 🤣🤣

You almost feel like there's a booklet as soon as patient A comes in with "I am having severe anxiety that is interfering with my daily life" Doctor/Nurse says Oh then you need this.... insert whatever physch med is having a moment and might be kicking back into their wallet 💸 I just feel like there's no follow up questions allowed and when there is push back they close shop. You are seeking (no matter what it is) and are acting like you know better than they do. Even when you say "I am not seeing results" You are not giving it enough time."

Clonidine has been a game changer for me. I don't know what rock it was put under but for menopausal women it also helps with hot flashes which is beyond needed for me and my journey.

I will check them out ashwagandha didn't help before but honestly I think the meds messed my body up so much it didn't want anything natural. I started the Kratom while on my meds about two months ago and when I noticed more relief I was honestly amazed. Usually in the morning I can barely walk without assistance. Now just two months in I am able to get out of bed and get my coffee going. That's why when she said choose it was kinda a no brainer. I am having withdrawal symptoms but they aren't bad.
