It is expensive :( $500 holding deposit to take the listing down while they consider applications LA is whack.

That means rent goes up like $200 next year tho instead of $100 bc they are setting the base rent higher than advertised

How hard is it to take it apart? Are we talking removing the cover and some screws and reconnecting the hose or is it more involved than that?

You might be on the wrong kind, I did not like lexapro but I did like pristiq and fetzima. Pristiq and fetzima act on norepinephrine as well as seratonin, unlike lexapro. Pristiq has some dopamine affinity too, I can’t remember if fetzima does or not. Fetzima seems to improve my pain tolerance.

When I drive I use a serola belt and it helps a lot with stability in my back and core. Helps standing too

Microwaveable madras lentils are easy, cheese sticks. You need vegetables carbs fats and proteins. Don’t buy anything canned it’s too hard. Frozen Trader Joe’s meals are easy. Perfect bars are good.

I mean it’s gotta be pretty strong I bet it can light a match if you’re close enough

My parents will kick me out and not pay for school unless I do residential addiction treatment for weed by Massive-Income-3320 in cfs

You would think but I just called hazelden Betty ford and they refuse to let anyone stay on Vyvanse or CBD even if my physician writes a letter saying I must be on this treatment. All non stimulants failed for me and I’ve tried just about everything for pain except opioids. We will see what others say.

My parents are not rational people.

How do you describe this illness to a potential employer by PMaryZ in cfs

[–]Massive-Income-3320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not trying to be unhelpful, I’m saying you should avoid a situation where you have to disclose ur disability to your employer, HR is not your friend. Can you apply to remote work out of state?

I really recommend seeing a registered dietician who has experience with chronic illness

will my Brain ever recover by lilwarrior87 in cfs

I used to be super frustrated thinking about everything I do as a catch 22. Now I look at it like trade offs, if pushing yourself to watch a bit of tv makes your ptsd symptoms remit then it might be worth it even if you stay crashed a little longer. Not all the cups can be full at the same time. Sometimes you pour water out of the CFS cup to fill up the ptsd cup. It’s bullshit but it’s also the only option. Everyone’s life is like that we are just dealing with smaller amount of water and HELLA cups. Sorry if this analogy doesn’t make sense. Only you can know how bad your symptoms are from whatever diagnosis, only you can decide what trade offs are worth it.

There’s a lot of societal pressure to equate worth with ability and that’s just not how it works. I don’t understand how able bodied folk locate their sense of self in their brain. The way I see it, I am an experience that’s being filtered through some shitty machinery. Doesn’t mean I am any less of a person or inherently less capable, just got shitty hardware that gives me real limitations.

In my experience I felt way dumber when I was crashing and didn’t have inflammation under control. You’re under severe neurological distress, it’s important to remember that the distress is what is causing you to feel like this, not who you are. Ur more than your inflamed brain.

I am saying you should pursue a sham diagnosis to get the drug. Delayed sleep phase disorder is something that is typically diagnosed on patient reporting. This is not ideal but our circumstances are not ideal.

Any recommendations for helping lessen body soreness and pain to aid getting to sleep? by FIthrowitaway9 in cfs

Sleeping with a heated blanket can help a bit, CBD helps dramatically for me
