I just joined, my main vex over the past years has been the pandemic. It messed my head up. Lockdown was stressful and unnatural. We are pack animals, isolated we are quite sick. I felt the sickness from isolation and now I'm finding it hard to do certain things. I avoid crowded areas, particularly indoors. I don't mind the shops, I avoid other people's homes, the school, cinema etc. I imagine I'll be fine, then I change my mind and don't go. I have a series of events I ought to attend over the coming six weeks. I will probably avoid them. I'm trying to treat myself with kindness, tolerance, acceptance - however I'm getting on my own nerves.
I have bipolar and over the past decade have developed chronic pain. The pain which runs throughout my body is extremely difficult to manage. The painkillers I'm prescribed make me tired and although this sounds minor, restless legs which spreads to my stomach leaving me uncomfortable and agitated, I find this side effect often unbearable.
Thanks for reading.
