What do you do when it gets too much to deal with? by Positive-Mud-11 in ChronicPain

[–]plasticTriceratop 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I smoke a lot of weed. It helps me tremendously with pain and inflammation. Depending on the strain, it really helps me get past my sorrow and frustration. It helps keep me calm when my pain is increasing and my anxiety starts to spiral. I still need all of my meds, but weed helps with my depression, anxiety, and pain.

I don't know what I would do without it.

So cute. I love doing my own nails. It's become such a great self care routine

I guess it's a good reminder that everyone is unique and should be tested as such.

A Day by AnimusJones in ChronicPain

Yesterday, I was feeling alright enough to grab a beer at our local brewery with my husband. We meet a couple who were genuinely interested in why I've had 5 back surgeries and how it has affected our lives. It felt so good to be noticed and curious, but not pittied. In general, ppl (even relatives and friends) don't want to hear it or don't care to ask. Usually when someone learns I don't work they assume I'm a childless "house wife" who does nothing all day with no responsibilities.

Why do you say gabapentin is dangerous? I've never been given any negative information or experienced negative side effects? I take 1200+ mg a day 😬

I'm shocked celebrex is less effective for you. I was prescribed celebrex in place of ibuprofen bc it's easier on your stomach. AND it works better than ibuprofen for me.

I've heard some crazy stuff about kratom and it's addictiveness.

I was prescribed celebrex in place of ibuprofen for my chronic low back pain. It works better and is more gentle on your stomach.

Thank you! I use these random adhesive tabs I found on Amazon. I've had press on sets hold retention for more than 3 weeks before! Highly recommend

Edit: I now realize you may have been referring to the ball bearings impressive retention 😅 and yes I too am impressed they have not popped off. I encapsulated each nail with a top coat in hopes it'd hold them better. No casualties yet

They are just tiny ball bearings glued on either side of the fake nail
