Something’s not right

Not Coping

Not Coping

Hey everyone how are you all?

@RiverSeal @Shaz51 @NatureLover @tyme @Former-Member @Eve7 @Former-Member @amber22 @Jynx @FloatingFeather

I'm not doing great at all today. I'm feeling down. I also keep beating myself up for everything and feel like I'm just failing. I need a break from everything. It's getting so hard that I don't know how to keep going anymore especially since I can't talk to anyone around me as they are leaving me or don't understand.

Hope you don’t mind me reaching out I just really need a chat and though I could come on here and vent and talk for a bit.

Thank you

Thanks for sharing the Ax info 🙌🏻☺️🌺

@Birdofparadise8

ok, that link I sent with the SR (systematic review) has two parts, and in the second part the discuss qualitative data - their reference articles that they reviewed in this section may include the actual articles that you may find helpful to review for your SR 🙂

and the link you’ve pasted.. that is a fairly decent RCT, however it may be helpful to look at the validation article for the phenomenon of interest, which was in their reference list: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/action/getFTRLinkout?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdoi.org%2F10.1016%2Fj.paid.2015.09.023&doi=10.1002%2Fjad.12277&doiOfLink=10.1016%2Fj.paid.2015.09.023&linkType=VIEW_NO_ACCESS&linkLocation=Reference&linkSource=FULL_TEXT

So you can a certain the validity of the tools they’ve used to come up with their results and conclusions, as well as the meta analysis part of this article from their reference list: https://www.jaacap.org/article/S0890-8567(18)31906-3/abstract

when I find an article like the one you have, I always go through their reference list, so I can make sure they are interpreting their recourses as they should be interpreting them (and not skewing or otherwise manipulating information to suit their desired outcomes), and to have a look and see if there are any of their references that I can use in my own SR analysis - this makes it easier than trying to find everything by yourself - when they fit your search criterion 💜🙂🌺

I hope that helps? 🙂🌺

Hi @Birdofparadise8, how are you. I've been sneezing.

Hi @Former-Member, how are you?

In response to: Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

Thank you @Former-Member

that is helpful.

I might have a couple of other questions later about the PPT. if that's okay.

Oh no do you have hayfever @creative_writer

In response to: Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 no, I'm sick and have been for two weeks ish, and yet the GP said just rest up, but I don't think I'm getting any better

In response to: Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

Oh that's not good. I swear you were only just sick not that long ago.

Do you take a women multivitamin and probiotics @creative_writer?

Now, these are so good for colds

[Link removed by moderator]

they are $40 but you can get them one sale. I've been taking them for years when I get a cold plus a few others and they really do work.

In response to: Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 I take Vit C, D, probiotics, and migraine care supplements. I haven't seen those vitamins before, I'll look into those, need to make sure it does not interact

It's frustrating since I don't even know why I keep getting sick, it's frustrating. If the doctor isn't willing to give me antibiotics, at least give me the strongest pain relief a GP can offer. Please no OTC ones, I need something stronger

Hello there @creative_writer 🙂🌺💜

I’m ok thanks - just a slow day here 🙂💜🌺

I’m sorry to read you’re still unwell - this isn’t good at all dear 😞❤️‍🩹

Sorry to sound a bit mum-ish, however I’m just thinking of the basics, like hydration, nutrition, rest, and immunity..? 💜

if there’s anything you’d like to chat about, and feel comfortable to do so, please tag me if you’d like to 🙂🌺

happy to hold space with you 🌺
