@tyme chronic fatigue is probably related to living with mental illness and chronic pain. It think sometimes people don’t realise how exhausting chronic pain can be. It’s not only migraines, I get pain from brushing my hair, my hands get super achy. I also get neck pain, pain on various points of my back, knee stiffness. It’s a whole range of things. It’s hard not to feel frustrated. At the end of the day, we can only do what we can to manage the pain. It’s why I’m seeing a rheumatologist next month. I finally heard back from them, it took a long time. Better late than never.
I don’t even know how I get graduated last year, but I did. I’m learning to be okay with my unemployment period, I need some time. I can start doing nourishing things for myself like creative writing, build an exercise routine, improve my diet. I also have mental health and medical appointments to help with both sides.
I reckon I might need to tell my pdoc about the unhealthy behaviour I’ve engaged in. My psych already knows, but might be worth exploring it a bit. I hate admitting my addictive tendencies. I might also need to discuss disordered eating as well, finding out about gluten intolerance has triggered a bit of food anxiety
