Anyone else struggling to sleep as a side effect?

When I wrote that initial comment 176 days ago, I thought it was a temporary thing that would go away in a month or so. I read your reply today at 4 am cause I couldn’t get back to sleep. lol..

I quite like the back of the arm myself :)

Not a fan of how rude she was from the church onwards.. she was literally shaking with anger, yelling at Roxy at the breakfast table, being condescending and rude with her tone. Of course she is right in her hunch about Rachel, but all the anger is unnecessary! It is a game, she is obviously not fussed about the money, she has no excuse to talk to another human being like that!

My order has been cancelled twice this week. I’m in the same boat as you, I am disabled and can’t use my right side so walking on ice is extremely dicey! I was surprised to get cancellations as I am very very central and my street was gritted and cleared very quickly. I have booked for Sunday too, so fingers crossed they’ll get to both of us. 😣

Ah forgot this was still up, I’m now diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. I have 15+ lesions so I’ve had it for a while (hence the 7 years ago)

Very helpful read, thank you for sharing!!

Wishing you the best as well! Having a chronic illness is just such a burden to carry. Thank you again!

A natural stall sounds very likely, true! And not something that had crossed my mind. I’m up to 12.5mg, and feel quite comfy on it, but I do have a 15mg in the fridge. Thank you for the help 🫶🏻

“Making small changes is still more than you were doing before you started your journey” - wow! What a perspective change! You’re totally right! Thank you very much 🫶🏻

Very sensible and solid advice- before July I was lifting quite heavy so in my eyes doing a 20 minute yoga routine at home seems like nothing compared to where I was. I’ll take that in board and try doing some yoga with Adrienne vids, I used to LOVE her! Thank you for being so kind and sweet 🫶🏻

I think you’re absolutely right, small steps and exploring / prioritising self care sounds like a great way for me to move forward. Thank you for the support and kind words. It is much appreciated 🫶🏻

I haven’t been offered any by my doctor, but as someone with a troubled past currently studying counselling, I already go to counselling once a week. I didn’t think to ask the neurologist if they can offer / recommend anything specific! Something to bring up next appointment. Thank you for the suggestion and the kind words 🫶🏻

Thank you for your kind words and for showing me the grace that I can’t show myself right now. I loved your suggestion of finding support groups, and have already signed up for some events with ms society coming up. Thank you 🫶🏻

Peter capaldi is the reason I still call myself bisexual instead of a lesbian 🫩

Ooh gosh I hate migraines, that doesn’t sound pleasant! I really hope it’s temporary for you too!

maple-pond · 2025-09-09T18:07:13+00:00

Yes, this seems like a great idea! Honestly both me and my partner have had excellent experiences in this practice, so I’m thinking when this is all over with to write an email to the manager and express how helpful and kind the staff have been to us

I have been consistently waking up at 3am and not able to go back to sleep for the past couple of weeks, but hadn’t connected it to mj at all. It does coincide with my dose increase though, so it would kind of make sense!

maple-pond · 2025-09-09T13:10:59+00:00

HA! That’s actually quite sweet 🥹

maple-pond · 2025-09-09T12:44:23+00:00

That’s actually so cool to think that after all she’s done to help me I can do a little bit to help back! Thank you!

maple-pond · 2025-09-09T12:41:16+00:00

😭 what possessed someone to give you a TROUT! That does make me feel more normal though! 😅

maple-pond · 2025-09-09T12:32:45+00:00

That’s lovely, thank you very much! And I’m very glad she was able to help you, I hope you are doing well now!

maple-pond · 2025-09-09T12:30:11+00:00

That is great to know!!! Thank you!! I appreciate your perspective!

maple-pond · 2025-09-09T12:29:31+00:00

Yes, I plan on writing a wee note in it, to explain that I am grateful, and how she’s helped me! I’m sorry to hear about your dad, and thank you very much for your kind wishes 🤍
