So low just now

6 Replies

I need to get out of this mood I’m in. I’ve had to surrender my drivers licence and I’m signed off work due to rapid sight loss. I will get an operation possibly end March / April for first eye. Meantime I have no desire or inclination to do anything. My pain is now constant. My tinnitus is constant. My energy is low. I have a list of things to do every day and I have no inclination to do any one of them. I’m still in pj’s today. I’m supposed to use this time to relax, focus on me but I really can’t be bothered. This is not me and I don’t know if I just let it pass or do something??

Hello Hcharles :-)

So sorry to read how you are feeling , I can relate to you feeling so low , I have been having the worse time ever due to pain and even prescribed morphine , I have not got dressed all week which is not me as well as I usually am on top of what needs doing but had to let things go at the moment and it to is making me feel down and you also have your operations to get through so I would say how you are feeling is totally understandable

Is there anything stronger they can give you for the pain ?

Sometimes I think we have to accept how we feel , tell ourselves it is ok that we are not dressed , we do feel ill after all and whatever needs doing will still be there when we feel better

Time to look after you and use the time to rest as much as you can :-)

Hope you feel better soon :-)

Take Care x

It would be a miracle if you weren't feeling low. With the body beautiful playing up so much.

And I a sure the weather doesn't help.

We have rain.

My eyesight is worsening and i have a lot of blurry vision/dizziness and falling to the left, luckily always been sitting down. i have chrinic tinnitus too. drives me up the wall. hope all goes well with your oo and that your mood lifts a bit soon. i can't drive at night due to sensitivity to car headlights. i just can't see so i am not safe now to drive at night. don't drive much anyway due to chronic fatigue. i know when i can and can't. xx
