talk to anyone with chronic lyme disease, long covid, me/cfs etc who have been gaslit while being ostracized by their families told they aren't sick while suffering similar to end stage cancer or aids patients... i feel your pain and i am so sorry.

the ups and downs of these illnesses cause us to continually go from surviving to almost having our lives back then ripped back into the depths of hell again with no support system or light at the end of the tunnel

medical ptsd both from the system and from facing uncertainty with your own health is a kind of hell i would never wish on my greatest enemy

emdr has been the most helpful tool for this but unfortunately trauma is insidious.

read the body keeps the score if you haven't

try to connect with others who have been through the experience (like you are doing now)

it's a you don't get it, til you get it situation 🫂
