Flodara,
How lovely that all sounds. Living in the northeast, we get limited sunlight compared to other areas in the US. And, I love the rays of sun on face, as well as, the sound of rain on my awning. Being outside away from the tech devices, I find, makes all the difference. As great as these devices are, it has compromised social interaction which compromised our health and well being. I totally agree about the pro-biotic. Isn’t Kefir made from dairy and grains? If so, I cannot consume them on my A.I.P Diet. BTW, I am 58 - old school, where we played outside until my parents would call us for dinner. We didn’t want to be inside like many “techie” children. And, all the anti-bacterial soaps and detergents have damaged the newest generations where I went outside on hands and knees playing in the dirt. What I find amusing is that as I was growing up, we didn’t have seat belts, we played in the concrete playground, we played in the dirt......with all these “protective things” they are used today, have made children allergic to many things and have not allowed there immune systems to become strong. Sad. Thanks for the tips.
I cry. Yet there is no one to hear it.
I sob. Yet there is no one to listen.
I weep. Yet there is no one to heed.
I wailed. Yet only the echoes are there to comfort me.

Egrosario,
You cry - and YOU hear it.
You sob - and YOU listen to it.
You weep - and you heed (whatever that means).
You wailed.
Loving oneself starts with you.
NEVER invalidate YOUR emotions and feelings because someone else isn’t there to validate them.
You are the only one living in your body and mind.
Start with wanting yourself, needing yourself and taking care of yourself.
We all get down on ourselves and feel unwanted, and feel depressed because WE FEEL no one cares.
WE forget to open our eyes and see what and who is out there.
If you feel a human is not caring enough for you, become friends with a furry being who is unconditional with their love. (I have 2)
Be Kind to Yourself! Take Care.
I am having a really down time. I have experienced so much loss over such a long period of time. I have two young adult children who are very cruel and often menacing. I am distancing from them but that brings no joy, only self-protection. My thyroid levels read normal but I am thinking about going to this thyroid specialist who does an in depth analysis, but takes no insurance. $500 just to be evaluated. Of course I would pay anything to feel better, but money is a huge concern. I am kind of breaking. I have interviewed a few therapists but no one seems to get me. All of my loved ones, the ones who actually loved me are dead. I just can't summon the energy to pull out of this hole. I have given up or severely limited some bad habits. Nothing too serious. A couple of glasses of wine out (I never drink at home), thrift store shopping (I have too much stuff), frequency of sweets; so I don't really have anything else to soothe myself with. I can't seem to pull out of this. I am not blaming myself, but it still doesn't make me feel any better. My energy level is so low I don't feel like doing anything.
Hi Lost Mother, I am sorry to hear you are in a funk. You do not have to spend a lot of money to see a specialist. I would go to the Graves’ disease area on this forum and ask mmztcass which bloods and tests would be necessary to give you a full picture of your thyroid problem. You could have subclinical thyroid problems - hyper or hypo or Graves or Hashimoto. I can help you with some of this stuff you are going through. First of all, some of the issues (on the emotional front) CAN be related to the thyroid. At THIS time in your life, take a pause from all relationships that are toxic, except your own. Cleanse yourself - physically and emotionally/mentally. Physically...sorry to tell you sugar, in any form isn’t good for you (that includes drinking and foods that have processed sugar in them) It causes inflammation. And, if you do have a thyroid problem - then it should be removed from your diet. I promise you, you will feel better for giving it up. As much as a therapist can help you - in the end it is YOU who needs to help yourself. The shopping issue is a way to fill the void in your life. Recognize it - after buying something, does it really give you joy? And, then you have to go out and buy another thing. They are just things. The relationship you need to work on is YOURSELF. Your energy level can be a reflection of the thyroid issue. I am NOT a doctor or a therapist. But I have lived life long enough that I see that some of the things you are doing are NOT helpful to you being a happy and content person. If you can, take a step back and take a good look at your life - Is it working for you? Do the things you do serve you? If they don’t, make a conscious effort to change so you make choices that work for you. Look people are going to do whatever they want whether they are family or not - WE do not have control over that. BUT you have the power to make choices, for yourself, Take it one step at a time. Deal with your medical issue, first, because that might help the other issues. Now, I don’t know you from a hole in the wall, but I care enough to respond and say “Hey, you are not alone.” Take Care.
Lost Mother - spellcheck - blood tests.
Hi Quillin,
Please take into consideration that depression can come from an auto-immune disease like Graves Disease. Mood swings are one of the symptoms. I agree that lifestyle changes are an excellent idea BUT if one is experiencing depression or anxiety, it is best to go to a doctor who will do a thorough round of blood tests to see what might be causing it. I suffered many years of anxiety and panic attacks and they couldn’t find anything until now. Being diagnosed has explained a lot of my past. Now, with the proper medication the anxiety has lifted. I had tried anti-anxiety medications, in the past, and it just made my condition worse because it WASN’T treating the correct medical condition. I agree there is no one size fits all treatment. But it is best to know what you are dealing with prior to doing ANY self-medicating. Take Care.

I joined this group because I just accepted that I have postpartum depression after five months of denying it to myself. I didn’t want to admit that I wasn’t feeling like myself anymore. I’m sick of lying to myself and I’m ready to help and start feeling better.

I advice all ladies and guys to find out what their partners are doing before engaging in any marital agreement! I gave my fiancé all my love, I stood by him when he didn’t have anything and I gave him my card so settle bills he always complained was making him sad.
If you need a reliable and a profound hacker and also a private investigator to help you check what your partner is up to , I strongly recommend cyberghost527@gmail.com ... This is not fake! I was really scared before but now she has helped me a lot and she also helped my friends at the office find out what their husbands were doing. No one should be decieved anymore! It’s high time you get the best.
If your spouse cheats contact cyberghost527@gmail.com she can help you, very talented and immaculate.
I call her the genius,we've had a few running together and I am always more than satisfied with her services. Some of the tricks she did for me are cloning my girlfriend's phone catch my cheating spouse and topping my credit score to an awesome number. If you need such services contact her.
Sorry to hear this. Just had my 25th anniversary and my marriage isn’t perfect BUT that is why we keep working at it. I love him just the same and things are always getting better and better. If there is no trust in a relationship, it is doomed. If there is no communication in a realtionship, it is doomed. If a spouse chooses to go outside the marriage to fulfill their desires, it is doomed. It is very sad when 2 people cannot get their “shit” together and talk things out BEFORE one of them looks elsewhere for comfort. VERY SAD. And, BTW, not that you deserve this - and no one does - look back on things, you are telling me you didn’t see any signs of this behavior. It is so important to bring things out in the open, no matter how uncomfortable the subject is. THAT is what marriage is. If you don’t like it, don’t get married. (I am saying this to your spouse) Good Luck - this investigator you recommend - is it worth the pain you will experience. Get on with your life. Remove the one that is making it toxic.
Personal happiness lies in knowing that life is not a checklist of acquisition. Your qualifications are not your life.
