Well as for health declining I so get that.
11 years ago I was working 12 hour shifts 6 out of 7!days a week , at least 1.5 hours a day at the gym. Now ? Fibromyalgia, CFS, osteoporosis, (PsA ) psoriastic arthritis. Physically I have huge limitations.
So my Doctors and I have come up with a game tonight plan to try and help my multi problems. Some days are better than others for reasons or no reason at all.
Losing my health has honestly been harder to accept than having my Bipolar.
But my life physically is what it is , my body can only handle so much. When my pain becomes unbearable it tips my mental stability down hill. So I have to actively focus on my mind set.
I have to pace myself. Can I go grocery shopping tomorrow ? Maybe yes , maybe no. So it’s a day to day process. I see my Doctors and we come up with a game plan to try and give me the best chance of less pain possible.
Last week it was upper 90’s yesterday ? Down to 38 ! HUGE FLARE or Fibro pain.
I know personally I have mourned the lose of my physical health. It has been awful at times , but it’s a ongoing process. So it’s okay to be sad and outright pissed if physically things are just not what you want them to be... look into finding help for whatever is causing your physical health to deteriorate.
