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.

    My friend invited me out for lunch at this nice, clean sit-in place, where I got to order a salad of my choice with two chicken toppings out of a wall-mounted variety. I don't remember the name of the place. However, it was a nice experience. Thereafter, we headed down to one of my favorite dessert destinations, the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory in McAllen. It had been a while since we just...

    I'm happy about myself and the choice I made to get myself back up to getting better but I would have wished for a better support system that actually lives up to standards and met expectations. Meh... sometimes it's not worth mentioning and pointless to mention but then that's why it's called depression because damn if you do and damn if you don't.
