often when a person is ill others do not know what to say, so opt for saying nothing, this does not always mean they do not care, simply that they are scared of upsetting or exhausting you.

I would think your Dr would be very concerned, sounds as though you would benefit from seeing a specialist, you can't live that way, the Dr should be helping you.
Mind you, mine doesn't understand what I'm going through 
I notice you mentioned agoraphobia, I had that when I was younger, you are going through so much.
I do not live near my family but they also never understood and were never there when I needed them so honestly after crying and crying for so long about them, I thought I'm not doing it anymore, I put them on the back burner because it was an unhealthy relationship, sounds awful but I felt better just trying to do healthy things for myself and always telling myself...because I'm worth it!!
The thing is, you're there all by yourself, I know how hard that it, torture at times...I want you to know I am here for you (not being some crazy person off the internet)
Something has to change to help you, not sure where you are, i'm in the States, can you tell your Dr you'd like to go see a specialist, what other foods you can eat, how to treat what you are going through.
Also, can you change Drs? you are important and you are worthy, period.
I'm at the point of changing mine and am ready to run in to anyone's office to say I need help with this, what can we do???
Just want you to know I understand, am trying to get help for myself but always know you are not alone, please look after yourself. |
Thank you so much for that caring response !! Things have changed since I wrote that. Thank God I now have a naturopath who muscle tests (kinesiology). She has me on products that should help. She figured out why I was gaining weight... When I knew I had an ulcer, I went off some of the suppliments I was taking. One of them included a suppliment I was taking for cortisol. She said its related to T3 and T4 in Thyroid. I went back on the suppliment and things have quickly reversed. Her services are not covered by insurance. But I would spend my last dime to get the medical support I need. And she has that.
I am better now with my family not calling me. and I am not sure I even cried at all yesterday. I have to make peace, for now, with eating woefully little until I can see the naturopath again. She could not fit everything into the first apt. But she did a brilliant job trying. My next apt is on thursday. She will check progress and do further muscle testing. And on wednesday I have an apt with someone else who may be able to help a bit with that. The most important thing is that I am losing weight, as it should be. Considering what I am eating.
I still do feel hurt about my brothers. But the real pain and crying has stopped. Thank you again for that totally compassionate response.

I've read that scent is tied to the sense of taste as well. Can you treat yourself in another way? Candles? Luxurious bath products with nice scents?
Maybe something else would feel good to another sense, like touch, massage?
So sorry- it sounds excruciating.

thanks for your caring response. You are so right. Touch would help. I blew a wad on a special kind of chiropractic called Network. The practitoners are like healers. I cant afford to do it much. Especally considering all my other expenses right now. I am spending all of the savings I have on things. But touch is what would be great. just the money issue. I will be going back to the network chiropractor next week. And then that may be it for a month. Thank you again !!
