woke up this morning in a negative mood feel like crap . I woke up feeling all anxious shaky not a good start to the day . I also suffer with Fibromyalgia so not sure which is playing up that or Afib as chest feel tight . No doubt it’s both of them . So I know I have a whole day a head of battling through the day while trying to work and do everything else . It can be so hard fights each day but it’s what I must do just having a moan thanks for listening

Good morning Anxious.

Another early riser!

Hey, you got this. Sure you haven't had a good start to your day. It happens to us all. It doesn't mean the rest of your Friday will be like this.

That's the right way to look at it. You can do this and win the battle - I have a gut feeling you will 'win the war'. Post back later and update us all on how it's going.

You'll be OK.

Me too, feeling down as I thought I had my life back after my so far successful ablation in 2022.However my back has never been the same and I'm in chronic pain a lot. My mobility has been severely reduced. Problem is, we can't take the best medication for it,ibuprofen etc. This week has been especially hard. I do Lead Invigilator work for exams and must have sat awkwardly on the Umpire like high chair. I can now take about 12 steps before I need to stop in pain.

Seeing a spine consultant again in April,but last time he just said take co codamol when it hurts but not too much.

Well it hurts every day 🙃 😕

I try to think when I'm really down ' this too shall pass ' ,have a good blart ( North Warwickshire for weeping) but also give myself a hug!

I find I try to keep up appearances of ' I'm OK,not too bad thanks ' to family to avoid worrying them. I find it helps jolly myself along in a weird way.

Springs on its way, we all feel better for a bit of sun and a few daffodils.....

Hope you feel brighter soon and get through what you need to do nice and steady

Best wishes ❤️

Everything does.

I use the Fibonacci sequence for my trading (among other indicators). It applies to life too - our 'down' moments return to 'good' moments. It looks a little complex but you soon pick it up.

i’m sorry you’re feeling like that. I have had the same especially since we are trying without antidepressants. The last ones I went on really did not help and then I became ill and was having trouble eating drinking pretty much doing anything so I asked my doctor and he said it was OK if I wanted to try to go without them. For the most part maybe it’s just I am feeling human and not a zombie. But I know that feeling when my eyes are not even open and I feel shaky and down and don’t want to get out of bed. Oh how I wish I could get back to the days where I had sunshine in my brain all the time. I have never seen anyone mention the anxiety, etc. before.

I also have a doctor appointment at my GP Monday. I had labs last week and all of a sudden without being spoken to I am being sent to a GYN I knew there was something wrong with my urine sample now I’m scared I can’t believe I just got something in the mail doctor I don’t know as a was a really rude me with something that is scaring me now. last week was a horrible week. I felt like no matter where I turned. I was not getting the care that I should have been getting especially with the fall that I took a week ago Monday I still cannot walk or put pressure on the right side of my body. I had 12 x-rays and no results yet all of a sudden I feel really blown off about everything. My was no better that day. He’s more concerned about my device check in April even though I told him I’m having trouble breathing and pain in my chest and I have had it now. I was going to call when I got the letter the other day and I couldn’t even get an answer at The lines may have been down we get that around here. Point is what a horrible week when you’re not feeling well as well as I have been in extreme pain I don’t know if I broke anything especially around my hip and pelvic and no one seems to be bothered enough to tell it’s not the doctors what I’m finding is the staff you have to get through to get to your doctor. My doctor in Florida was so good. He would call me back himself and even my EP here would get me in the same day. Now it seems I can’t get a simple message through and when I talk to the doctor later, he has a blank look he doesn’t know what I’m talking about. I have been using a walker loaned by a neighbor for the past week, but the pain is even though I have tramadol for pain no thanks to them when you get past the front desk I have gems to deal with, but it’s like facing a bunch of junkyard dogs trying to even their telephone call is rude. My GP had recently redone everything and I thought he had a great group but after last week when it was the most important to me I’m not so sure. The best person I dealt with was my radiologist and my I was supposed to have a because I slammed my head so hard into the wood and metal wall when I went down no idea what made me fall, but I hit one side of my face, etc.

I know I’m not the only one with complaints like mine. I guess I have to share with my family out here. Also usually I’ve been so happy and feeling normal since the pacemaker right now that seems to be the only thing doing well. I just had my transmission check and it was all OK although I they did a second a few days later. It just seems like nothing is going like it should.😞

Not what you're looking for?
