I feel like my body is shutting down

[feb53]

I am a 53 year old female. I feel like my body is shutting down and I am going to die.I don't know what is going on with me. I have went to the doctors for test everything comes back okay. My body is telling me one thing the dr's is telling me another thing.I do have a lot of health problems going on. Anexity being one of my problems. I have had thyroid surgery back in 08. I had thyroid cancer. I have a lot of back and joint pain and I have fibromyalgia,arthritis, degenerate disease. I suffer from depression. My depression has got a lot worse in the past year. I lost my sister and my best friend. My baby sister passed away on my birthday in Feb 2018. I don't go any where and I don't leave my home. I don't have the energy to get up and get dress to go any where. I have gain a lot of weight . I can't move around like I once could. I have been on all the antidepressants meds that is out there. Antidepressants don't agree with me at all. Is there any one else here that is going through what I am going through ? I would love to hear from you.

feb53, I am so very sorry for the loss of your sister. Along with your medical issues,

it sounds like depression has moved in to stay for a while. You are still grieving over

your loss. You have many medical issues that you are dealing with on a daily basis.

By the way, congratulations on beating thyroid cancer. x

I have had Fibro for many years as well as neck disc pain from a car accident years ago.

Things happen in life that we have no control over. But it shouldn't be the end of trying

to live as productively as we can. Working on our pain issues can be helped by using

other tools. I may not be able to change the medical issues I have but I can certainly

learn to live with them in a less fearing way. I use daily meditation along with the

understanding that good and bad days will come. I embrace the good and when a bad

day comes along, I don't fight it anymore. I take it as a time I need to care about myself.

Yes, I have lost many days along the way, but I've kept my head above water by finding

ways to treat myself with respect and love. You are not alone feb53. xx
