Morning All.


An other day has rolled in and i'm sure the battle continues for us all.

How are you all feeling today? Check in if you have the time it helps to write things down and get things of your chest.

I have been struggling the last few days with back pain caused by Scheuermann's Disease which is a chronic pain condition I have. I have upped my pain killers but they are not really helping so I am going to make an appointment with my pain doctor. I have also made an appointment for some acupuncture as I find that really helps with the pain so fingers crossed I can get the pain under control again and of course this has a knock on effect with my anxiety and depression. The joys lol but we have to keep fighting and enjoy the moments we can and keep using the coping skills we have.

I hope you all have as good a day as possible.

Hibee,

I hope your back feel better soon. I am no stranger to back pain, as my anxiety causes my back to feel terrible. Just recently I've been going to the chiropractor. Not sure if it's helping yet though. I got a massage from a new girl on Monday and my back is sooooooo sore. I'm pretty sure she bruised me!

Hope you feel better soon Hibee!
Same stuff, different day for me! Made it through half of the week now though, which makes me happy :)

Hibee, I'm so glad I read the check in today, because your good attitude inspires me. I'm sure I can't quite relate to the level of back pain you experience, but like M2G&Q, my anxiety gives me such bad pain that I also seek help from a chiropractor and massage therapist, as well as acupunture. Good luck and I hope your pain subsides!

Today is a babysitter day for me, so I have yoga, therapy and sigh...a wax appointment. Ouch! Anyway, then I'll keep my sitter for the day and come home to relax a little and pack for vacation. Hoping to have today be low anxiety.

Hi HT

Sorry to hear you are in pain to I hope you get your cpap mask sorted soon and get some much needed rest. Depression seems to go hand in hand with pain so hopefully your shrink can help you out on Friday let us know how it goes.

Thanks for your well wishes I'm sorry to hear you to have back pain to I think that anxiety can definitely magnify the pain. I had a massage a while back and the same thing happened to me and I ended up in more pain so never went back.

Thanks for your well wishes. Sounds like you have the right attitude taking each day as it comes and made it through half the week I hope your second half is a good.

Thanks I am pleased that you have been inspired but sorry to hear you have also been having back pain there is nothing worse but glad you are getting acupuncture as I find that really helps. Good luck with the wax appointment that sounds painful.

:( Get well soon Hibee. :(

:( You too turtle... :(

Mom & Park!! You girls are so lucky! Massages, babysitters... ahhhh, that sounds so relaxing! Lol.

As for my day, I woke up with subconscious anxiety causing me chest discomfort and tension. I didn't actually think I was anxious, but my body sure did/does. Strange.... strange... SO I got to thinking... am I anxious? And it turns out, yes... yes I am... Lots to do this week and two plane rides on Saturday. :/ Hoping and praying that my anxiety levels are low over this vacation time! :/ :/

TMA - babysitters are essential for survival! LOL! Have a good vacation! I cannot wait to get into the sun and get some Vitamin D.

I just left yoga and dedicated my practice to all of my HW Family! We did some very mindful yoga which was relaxing and also, ummm, I haven't been to a class in almost 2 months....boy was my body a mess! I can't wait to get back to it. I feel so much better having gone!

Yoga would be so amazing... boy I sure am missing out on stuff!! :D Enjoy your vaca too!!!

TMA, that massage was anything but relaxing. haha!! I feel like I was in a car wreck.

I'm gonna have to live vicariously through you and park, as it doesn't look like I'm going anywhere warm anytime soon👎

Hi everyone,

In the process of getting a 2nd opinion, I'm just not vibing with my psych. Hopefully I get in by next week.
