From people who came through it

  • โ€œI was right where you are a few years back. It was cancelling plans for the third time and I couldn't see past it. Now I sleep most nights. It's slow, but it does come back. Keep going, even slowly.โ€

  • โ€œI am not going to tell you everything happens for a reason. It doesn't. But you can get through it. I did, and I am not especially strong. Heat pad, podcasts and low expectations got me through the worst flares.โ€

  • โ€œI was right where you are two years ago. I remember when a heat pad that never leaves the sofa, like it was yesterday. Yesterday I booked a holiday. It doesn't stay this heavy. Be gentle with yourself.โ€

  • โ€œA note for the next person. I was where you are nearly four years ago. It was the side effects of the nerve tablets and I couldn't see past it. I've started painting again. You get yourself back in pieces. Praying for you.โ€
