@Jynx I want my body to adjust first as the symptoms are severe and I got serotonin toxicity which was hell on earth. He’s just given me a beta blocker due to the hypertension and high pulse rate from the serotonin toxicity and that’s whacked me out too. Only started yesterday. My body needs time to adjust and while he wants to “get it over and done with” (his words) he is not the one having to experience the symptoms and be all alone going through that.
How’s your day been today? What you been upto?
@Cuddlebear oh hun, that sounds so incredibly overwhelming. The changes and sensory feedback and the uncertainty all coalesce into a harrowing trial that you're enduring. Like the way our brains work, if our body is experiencing symptoms of panic, our brain panics, regardless of whether we logically know it's nothing to panic about. Heart rate spikes are not fun.
I hope with your doc it's a space you feel you can advocate for the pace you need to go at 🤞
I did the vacuuming!! Haha yay me!

@Jynx I just want to be validated and have someone to just be here and sit with me through these feelings
@Blackcloud absolutely understand that feeling hey. It's so important sometimes to just feel heard and understood.
I can imagine there's many folks here who would be up for a chat - you can always pop in on the Sunday catch up thread to see what's what.
I'm floating around as well of course, if you feel like tagging me in anything I will check in when I can 💜😉
