Re: Feeling hopeless, desperate for advice.

Feo pretty much wrote the message I would have.

Some things to add:
* all this is pretty common for a group of us here. You're not alone. And you can (and will) get better.

* when you are in anxiety mode, your body moves blood from the center to the extremities. That means you don't digest food.

* the magneisum issue feo mentioned can be solved by baths. Get some cheap Epsom Salt bath mix from your local pharmacy...have a bath with it before bed. It'll help.

* get a serotonin booster like 5-htp to have before bed. Again, you can get a cheap one at pharmacy but don't get the cheapest. You may need an antidepressant but that'll take time to start.

* don't feel guilty about staying in and resting a lot. your body needs to heal.

* we all had different reasons for this starting, likely it wasn't a few drugs that did it to you. they just were a peak stress experience.

* You are smart to start now, rather than 3 years later. It won't happen overnight, but once some things get better then more get better quicker and quicker.

* if you can afford it get to a GOOD local naturopath that knows something about Adrenal Fatigue/Adrenal Burnout. Tweet
