Remember that time i said i wouldn't post about health issues/personal life anymore? I wouldn't have if i had not gotten a diagnosis recently.
I have a weird combination of neuropathy and complex regional pain syndrome called Erythromelalgia. It primarily affects my hands and feet, almost my whole body in the summer, dissipates a lot in cold weather.
Also have orthostatic intolerance, a mild version of POTS that also gets worse in the summer, dissipates a lot in cold weather. I'm happy to get answers but its still... weird.
But now I'm diagnosed i can get treatment! I've been looking at this for at least a year but I never actually thought I'd be right.

But now I'm diagnosed i can get treatment! I've been looking at this for at least a year but I never actually thought I'd be right. I feel your pain brother. I'm having severe anxiety related to having trouble finding work. I wake up from terrible nightmares. I scream and rant and threaten inanimate objects, simple things like a chair being out of place. Then I collapse from exhaustion on the energy spent. A ringing phone can scare the fk out of me.. I keep getting winded from simple tasks. My back will begin to ache and my skin will then tingle and feel like it's burning. My heart is pounding all the time. Sometimes I have conversations with people who aren't there. I just keep telling them to get **** out of here. I hear my name being called from a distance but there is no one there. I'm walking a tight rope where if i fall off I will lose whats left of my sanity. The only thing that holds my sanity together is vodka, cigarettes and playing too much ark. My sense of time is severely distorted. An hour can pass in what seems only about 30 seconds to me. To add to the anxiety my father thinks I'm faking these things as a way to get sympathy and avoid working, but the only thing I want is to go back to work. Thanks for sharing yours and giving me somewhere to share mine. Peace be with you.
That sucks. I'm also looking for work, but no one wants to hire an person with autism and fluctuating illnesses. I'd recommend a doctor, not a shrink. Mostly all they do is dope you up and send you home to deal with the horrible side effects.
There's nothing wrong with medication, if you get a good doc that actually cares and willing to think outside the box. Sounds like a mixed bag of generalized anxiety disorder and panic attacks.
It's hard to function when everything feels like a threat. As for your dad i can't help you. Mine pops up every five years or so to tell my mother what a horrible person she is then disappears so...
Glad i could help. I vent here so i don't make everyone depressed. I can only think about my illnesses to a degree cause it's a long list.

Mental health is way more complex than physical health, and because people can't see it on the surface, they think it doesn't exist or isn't important. The good news is that it you can get better, or at least manage the problem.
Best of luck to you!
So true! But I'd say it's about even if it overlaps. Anxiety from pain causes more anxiety and pain. And if your anxiety gets too badit can manifest into physical pain.
Whoever said pain is weakness leaving the body (physical/mental) can get fucked.

I have some stuff in place kind of. It's hard to exercise when just standing up equals a 3 hour nap. Good thing i have exercise that i actually like.
Swimming (can't swim yet) Skateboarding Parkour Riding bike Walking It would be football but GÇóConcussion GÇóI apparently tackle too hard GÇóI barely possess the ability to speedwalk. Or catch the ball. Or throw. GÇó Do writhing in pain and making sarcastic comments count as exercise or just being a ****?
