Today I'm having a hard with my other chronic illness and my PTSD. The other chronic illness I have is CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease). Having only 50% kidney function to bring oxygen to my blood, it gets tough. I'm worn out physically today along with PTSD flashbacks. I got CKD from a bad shrink's overprescribing me Seroquel for PTSD nightmares from surviving a car bombing abroad when I was a 9 year old missionary kid, so it triggers my PTSD, too. This happens every other month or so now, so since it's chronic your support is very welcome. I'll just post here today and reply to private messages and journals tomorrow. Gracias, y'all.

I'm having a hard time with my PTSD too muji. I'm sorry to here your going through it too. I've been irritable and unable to get good sleep. On top of that I feel energy has been sucked from me.

As someone who has had emotional issues as well as chronic pain I can relate. And what did was just tuck myself in bed, find something to do (read, tv, video games, post on here) and try to find any comfort. I lean on the kindness of strangers more than anyone I know and it oddly helps me feel less alone.

I'm over the CKD dizziness I had since night before last, so this, too, shall pass. I just hate having the room swirl around even when you're lying down. I was well enough to go grocery shopping today, though, so that was good. Thanks for your support so I could get up and make that happen.
