i think there are different types and levels of crisis - what are your symptoms? what exactly happens to you, what do you do about it, what do you take for it, etc.?
i'd love to be of as much help as i can! *misa*

I can tell you that I have had a crisis when I had a strep throat and then started my period. Normal everyday living doesn't seem to bother me and I rarely have stressful events in my life. But infections and my normal woman cycles take me down quicker than I can say jack rabbit.
In your head my ass. My Addison's is in my head LOL! I have Secondary Adrenal Insuffiency so it is in my head because my hypothalamus is all messed up.

My best advice is to manage stress. You only have a certain amount of energy. Try to not let things upset you and conserve energy. Also, make sure you keep hydrated. Good luck
