Evening, Twters.

Genuinely having a tough time of it. House hunting is not going well, though we've 3 more viewings lined up for tomorrow.

The news about #pip is terrifying - PIP makes up about 33% of my income so losing it will be devastating, and there's not a lot I can do about it as my condition fluctuates. I'm having a really tough day during a really tough time, and I'm about ready to crawl into bed and not emerge again til it's all better.

Morning Twters.

Been awake since 3,30 this morning with dreadful nerve pain in my leg. I've taken as much medication as I can, which has just about taken the edge off it, but has also made me quite woozy and thick headed (thanks, opioids).

Need to ring the gp at 8 to do a medication review anyway, then I will try to get some more sleep.

I hope you all have a much better start to your days! 😘

In a Reddit group focused on brain fog, Mangione wrote, “The people around you probably won’t understand your symptoms — they certainly don’t for me.”

Doctors reveal how chronic back pain suffered by 50m Americans raises risk of mental breakdown

A major review involving nearly 200,000 people found that those with back pain had a 2.6 times higher rate of psychosis, or a loss of connection with reality, than the modern population.
