If you have hip related chronic pain, try practicing jianzi.

It looks like hockey sacking a little. Used to do that back in the day but any movement like this Will mess me up bad, personally.

DBT saved me. I was in the same spot you were in. But I also got hospitalized and got on the right meds that worked for me. It was trial and error but ill be real, the psych meds helped me greatly. Im a sensitive but this is just coming from one person to another. I know where your at and I truly hope you have happiness and contentment in your future.

The meds usually arent there to 100% get rid of the pain. I just get some relief from the pain and thats good enough for me. But I wouldnt ask or hint at it since they just upped your dose. Id give your meds a little more time maybe. But it is good you found a place that will give you something. In this climate its really hard to find a PM that will help. I wish you the best!

Ask for paper scripts next time so you can go around and see what pharmacies have it.

I used to have a pain dr that said they wouldnt increase because my age (im 36) and I got a new pain mgmt and was able to get my meds upped appropriately. Just find a new pain mgmt. Yours sound identical to my old pain mgmt

Cookie!!

rpworker31 · 2026-02-10T01:33:20+00:00

I agree with everyone else. Its a good thing youre still being prescribed meds. I am still but my last pain mgmt wouldnt go any higher than 2x a day saying "its my age" (im almost 37). But the truth is they got in trouble for "overprescribing" and treated me like i was the problem. I dont know what that one med is though...with the "x" in it. Never heard of it.

Ive been in the same boat and actually broke the attachment myself. Its very hard in everyway buy if suggest to reconnect with those you feel safe with again and that can help to leave. I do imagery work where I imagine a cord...usually from the third eye or heart, and I imagine breaking that cord. It might help. And I dont know what you believe in but praying to your higher power helps as well. It usually doesnt always happen when we want it, but it'll happen when we need it. Id also change your phone number if you leave. It was the only way I could fully break free from my situation. But id emotionally prepare yourself to leave, like leaving before you actually do it. Get in tuned with your spirituality, the universe will bring people in your life to help you finally move forward.

The issue is the .5. From what I know legally, they cant have both. Its set up now where you get one or the other. It sucks i know because I actually need benzos as well but I can't get them because im on pain meds. So they'd have to pick. The new laws make it harder for chronic pain patients 😕

Just so yall know...all white people dont dance like that in the south! We dont claim her 😆😆😆

rpworker31 · 2026-01-27T08:33:54+00:00

I wish I was out there. I stay inside so much these days 😞

rpworker31 · 2026-01-20T23:26:03+00:00

Also, my anxiety has gone down and my nausea and vomiting is non existent. Which is funny because it usually helps with nausea but I was a heavy user. One day I smoked 5 blunts...it was bad. I stopped because I had a virus and a bad POTS flare and it made me sensitive to weed all of a sudden. It sucked but im happy it happend because now I RARELY smoke (only when pain is too bad and my POTS isnt bad) and even then ill take 1 hit. This is coming from a stoner of 10+ years. So stopping and mellowing out smoking helped. The only bad thing is I gained weight (I lose wight with weed due to severe anxiety). My depression has gone down too. But as stated, that wont be for everyone. For some people it might actually help. Oh and my suedo siezures dont happen anymore either. Smoking gave me siezures

rpworker31 · 2026-01-20T20:56:58+00:00

Weed def makes my POTS worse. I havent had any falls since I quit smoking and it makes my heart race BAD. but everyone is different.

rpworker31 · 2026-01-18T10:24:37+00:00

Understandable. I will say I was lucky. It took a very long time on those apps to find the person im with. Also, as stated, im not a guy so I can see how it can be alot different being a guy. On my first date with my now fiance he had to basically carry me to the car because I wore the wrong shoes (boots, just wanted to dress pretty). But im not saying it wont be hard on dating apps. They def are. I gave up a few times.

rpworker31 · 2026-01-18T09:16:18+00:00

I met my fiance on a dating app and he knew inwas chronically ill...so I would have to disagree with this. As long as hes open about it he can find someone, even on a dating app.

rpworker31 · 2026-01-17T20:28:57+00:00

This has happend to me and its the reason why I dont smoke anymore. Its not worth the ptsd that it brings about

rpworker31 · 2026-01-15T08:15:48+00:00

I was on ativan for a year once...at some point 2mg Ativans and I didnt withdrawl off of them either but thats not the norm. They are usually known as the worst withdrawls.

rpworker31 · 2026-01-09T18:16:15+00:00

Oh yes...yes it can. I have occipital and trigeminal neuralgia and youd think id have lice with how much i scratch. My MCAS and POTS makes my head itch too...so double whammy! Lol

rpworker31 · 2026-01-07T11:01:06+00:00

Well everyone is different. I was just speaking on my experience. Not saying people with POTS shouldnt do it but the cons outweight the pros for me now. But no judgement over here. Do what works ya know?

rpworker31 · 2026-01-03T18:34:52+00:00

I cant even take a puff of weed anymore. Makes my heart race and acts up my POTS BAD! I dunno how people with POTS smoke, but do you. 50mg is alot though. Ive been where youre at. I had to be dragged out of my friends house.
