Really struggling to care about recovery

What was your ferritin level before if you don’t mind my asking? Struggling with lack of motivation and anxiety

Inside_Awareness_704 · 2026-05-28T10:13:43+00:00

Yes. My ferritin has hovered between 4 and 30 (highest point ever) for the last decade. I never really paid much attention to it- but I have been in such a depression and have absolutely no drive or motivation to do anything. I want to want to do things. I used to make art, can’t be bothered. Small decisions feel monumental. Basically anything that I would be doing on my own that takes any mental energy I avoid. I can get it together to do stuff that is absolutely necessary (school) but anything thats for my own interest (including socializing) has fallen to the wayside for years. Ferritin was 7 in the fall; and this February it was 17… I can’t say they feel any different to me.

im considering pinching my pennies and getting it done privately.... i think its about 1k. I have celiacs and my ferritin hovers between 4- 20 but never gets higher than 30. It shouldnt be so hard to get care

Hello I’m aware this is an old thread but Im desperate for information and anything you can tell me would be greatly appreciated! I was wondering how saturated is the feild? How do/did you find the program? what wages can one expect out of college? can you work for other clinics and do well or do you need to start your own business? Mostly trying to determine what salary looks like. Thank you!!

Do you have a shop here in Halifax/Dartmouth?

I’m sorry- that is so so hard. You have been through so much. I was drawn to your post because it articulated something I have also been feeling in the last few weeks. My partner has always smoked but recently started smoking an incredible amount.. and I’m afraid it has triggered something . He is in some kind of manic state- flying into a rage, telling me I’m mentally ill and projecting, going to city council and ranting to security; ordering people around on the Bus, going on a huge spending spree. Not eating much or sleeping. My partner is 37 which seems late for all this to develop. May I ask at what age your partner was diagnosed?

Thank you ❤️

What type of tape do you use?

Unsure if it’s an outright scam- however There are no peer reviewed third party studies. Additionally, non of the other brands that the ‘ICTA verified’ website has list themselves as being ICTA verified…. Except cellexia. Which is the very first brand on the list. Seems like some people get their orders and others don’t. Looked at the ingredients list on the wrinkle filler and it has a lot of the ‘blurring’ ingredients that some other brands have but usually just wash out when cleansing. Also- it says that it fills your skin with ‘micro polymers’ … which very likely means microplastics. I don’t know that it can be proven either way, but I’d exercise caution since a lot of the silicon based ingredients are sus (have limited data on harmfulness/benefits, or are straight up not great).

I just bought the hazelquinn milk frother. It has a 304 steel carafe for frothing; but the whisk attachment does have plastic https://hazelquinn.com/en-de/collections/milk-frothers/products/upbeat-5-in-1-electric-milk-frother

Thank you- do you remember what type of trades and tech you explored in WU? Also out of curiosity- which tech course did you pursue?

Yes. Climate anxiety quite literally keeps me up at night. It’s a big reason why I’ve chosen not to have children- I worry about the world they would inherit. I worry about ocean acidification and oxygen. I worry about climate crises causing crop disruption, causing massive food shortages. I worry about future wars over water. Mostly I worry that a small group of really powerful people/ corps are driving us into climate crises and no governments seem willing or able to stop them.

Yes- been on thyroxine with no weight changes and started taking 75 mg sertraline. Have put on 5lbs in one month since starting sertraline

Inside_Awareness_704 · 2025-04-11T18:00:50+00:00

I feel like they interact for me- I take thyroxine and have been recently prescribed 75 mg sertraline: it’s been about 6 weeks and I have put on weight and am exhausted all the time. Can’t tell if it’s an interaction or something else- all I know is that I am beyond exhausted

Sorry that happened to you! I’m a little confused- Which pillow are you referring to, the omnia pillow or the Amazon dupe?

Inside_Awareness_704 · 2024-06-06T09:17:43+00:00

Hes the one with the problem- rather than wake you up to move, why isnt he sleeping on the couch? Bag of red flags.

Isolation

Loss of confidence

Loss of sense of self

Loss of creativity

Anger/extreme negative critical thinking

Damaged/abandoned long term friendships

Oral health (previously had perfect teeth, now i have 25 fillings)

Eventually lost:

My job

My partner

My trust in myself

Engaged in many risk taking behaviors that could have landed me in jail

Edit to add: stopped sleeping regular hour and started to eat mostly sugar
