Those who know me know that some days I'm incapacitated by neuropathy pain from dying nerves due to Chronic Kidney Disease I got from a bad psychiatrist who overdosed me on Seroquel for my PTSD.  It's been one of those days.  Support welcome for a better day tomorrow.

Sending you support, Muji. Anyone who's had a good psychiatrist is very lucky.

Thanks, Laan, I've had a bad one and a good one, so I know what you mean about being lucky. I was lucky that my good one came second and cleaned up after that first bad one. Today i got out & walked again. I still have to work to adapt to how differently my neuropathy pain from CKD nerve damage feels from one day to the next.

I'm relieved to see my reply went through, the site was down for a long time yesterday and kept giving me error messages. I'm so glad you were able to get out and walk. The unpredictability of that kind of pain is a monstrous challenge.

Thanks, y'all. Today I walked 2 km, exactly double my 1 km daily walking goal, so I'm proud of myself in doing the work to stay out of my wheelchair in 2024 that I relapsed into 3 times in 2023. 4 months more and I can end 2024 saying I stayed standing the whole year. Last year that didn't seem possible. I'm really grateful for the support here that helped make it happen.

    Everyday I feel more and more sick. Being in pain every day, I've learned to disguise it. So well that others don't believe my pain when I speak of it. Needing help but only receiving negative responses, I find my way but pay for it later. I absolutely need the rest but there's pressing things to be done.

    Today was hard. Really hard. After an argument, I still chose to go to him. On the way, I was in an accident. He didn't stay by side. I've been here before but this time is different. I could of died. He still left. I couldn't advocate for myself. I'm struggling taking care of myself. I really don't have anyone or anyone willing to help. Just help. Not fix. Somehow even this is something that...
