A Visitor Is Here

PaigeyPaigeForLife profile image

I woke up this morning with a very nervous feeling, I thought I left that visitor behind i have already prayed and I'm doing what my therapist said but the feeling is getting stronger.

Anxiety and depression are what I deal with and for a while I thought I had conquered them. I don't want to be back on medication I already take enough meds. I don't even want to stay in the house today but I have no one that i can call to share how I'm feeling so I thought I will get on here and let it out. I want to scream I AM TIRED OF LAYING IN BED I WANT TO BE A PERSON OUT DOING DIFFERENT THINGS NOT IN BED MOST OF MY DAYS!!! #WEWILLWINTHEFIGHTAGAINSTPKD✨💛✨

Thanks for the hope, sadly i seem to get that dizziness every day, my consultant doesn't know, why I feel like I do 🙄🤔

Yet nearly, every post I read, we're all feeling the same way, you don't have to be, Sherlock Holmes, to work it out. I wish, we could find something for this dizziness! I think it my my blood pressure, plus it's always, accompanied with breathlessness, can't have one, without the other.

Let's pray, 🙏🏻 we have a better day tomorrow 😊

Here we are in another beautiful day, yes its beautiful because we are alive in spite of how we may be feeling. I do hope that at some point medically doctors will be able to tell us why we have all this dizziness and fatigue. I was able to take my daughter to school but i am back home feeling sick and nauseated, i just had some pickled ginger it helps me. Here's to a comfortable day☀️

Hello Paige,

I feel the same way, everything: dizzy, tired, pain, I get frustrated, sad, depressed... in my case I prefer to see a psychiatrist and take antidepressants regularly, they help me keep going.

Don’t give up! I’m 42 and take bp, thyroid, uric acid and antidepressants everyday. I need them, so there’s no point thinking about it or complaining: every new day with my kidneys working is a gift, and I make the best I can make of it.

Best wishes

Rick
