I really wish I did, but on the church billboard Sunday there was something that just hit home to me - "If you think you have nothing to be thankful for, take your pulse." That and the fact that I picture in my mind Bush pulling brush in Crawford keeps me going!

Good luck.

Thanks I try to look at it that way but it don't seem to be working today, I know I should be thankful I walk,breath work etc. So I do know that I have things to be thankful for.

Oh I am there with yea. Yesterday I started off positive/feeling good that I will make things better in my life....but that wore off. Reality hit me, my future hit me... I am ok today, but will I be in a year from now? Being alive is one thing, but if you cant live it whats the point.

Yea...I dont think that helps. Just look at your child and remember that is why you are here on earth and keep fighting for the little person you gave life to. That is what I tell myself everyday.

I have been threw exactly what you are talking about for the last 2 years. the only thing i have ever found to help me on bad days is rest. it's depressing to me at times but it works. my neuro has me down to working 2 days a week now, very hard on my pride if you know what I mean.... hang in there.

Do you take anything for fatigue, like Provigil?

My doc and I have worked out how to tweak the time of day and amt of the doses so that often I can make myself feel stonger later in the day when the need is there. Have to be careful that I don't take it late enough it will keep me awake. Don't know if that is an option for you, just a thought.

I envy you that you feel well when you first wake up. I'm not civil, and don't like to talk to anyone until I do a jump start with a strong cup of tea, and until the Provigil kicks in. Then I'm good to go.

ADDERALL GETS ME THROUGH...AND USUALLY ONLY A HALF...BEST, EM

there is no one specific thing that works for me....I wake up and thank God for seeing another day and then I see if the legs are ok...then see if vertigo is ok...then tremors, etc....what works...no stress ...that's hard for you because you work and at one point or another I wanted to slap someone at work at least twice a day but didn't (like my freedom too much *grin*)....so chamomile tea works and peppermint tea and tai chi...resting alot...maybe you can do powernaps during lunch...maybe your neuro can work with you and find a better way for you to function at work...oh and lots and lots and lots of positivity....WHAT YOU SAY......GOD WOKE YOU UP SO YOU HAVE A PURPOSE....REMEMBER THAT.

Well I went home and went to be at 7p.m. and got up this morning at 7 a.m. I will try the tea. Thanks
