[highhellkisses]

I am still relatively newer to the chronic illness/injury world in the sense that I've only had a diagnosis or debilitating symptoms for the past five years(give or take, and I know some people experience it for many more years. But I am still well seasoned enough in chronic pain to know that it is exhausting, emotionally draining, isolating, and horrific.

I've been lucky enough to have the past few months, even year, not suck for me. But, due to an inability to see my physical therapist for about two months, sadly I am back to a state of debilitating pain.

And even though I have experienced it before, even though I have first hand knowledge of how it feels to be living with it, even I forgot how tiring and lonely it feels to be in such pain.

So if you have never experienced chronic illness or pain please give grace to those around you that might be dealing with something similar. I know you don't understand. I know it can be annoying. But please reach out and ask how they are, how they are really. Push for how you can help. We don't want to be a bother but it's so nice to have people care and send a kind word. Even if you've been through it it's easy to forget how it feels in the moment(our brains are funny things, darn survival mechanism!)

Just be kind and give grace.

17 Things I Don’t Admit on Bad Days With Chronic Fatigue

--- The most difficult days with chronic fatigue can also be the hardest to discuss. When one of the symptoms of your illness is chronic fatigue, you know any flare day can mean you are unable to take a shower, chat with friends or even leave your house. These physical challenges as well as their mental health effects aren’t necessarily easy to bring up in conversation, especially when others assume you’re “just tired” and will feel better after a good night’s sleep.

To shed light on the effects of chronic fatigue that aren’t often understood or discussed, we asked our Mighty community to reveal what they don’t admit on the bad days of their chronic fatigue. It’s important to note that people with many illnesses experience chronic fatigue, but it should not be confused with chronic fatigue syndrome / myalgic encephalomyelitis, a distinct diagnosis that also includes chronic fatigue as a symptom.

We’re share these answers so others dealing with chronic fatigue know they’re not alone — and so those who have never experienced chronic fatigue can begin to understand the challenges you cope with even when you “seem fine.” --- Continues at:

Breathe Deep: How Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Supports Natural Healing

In today’s health-conscious world, more people are searching for safe, effective treatments that work with the body—not against it. If you're dealing with fatigue, inflammation, or slow recovery from injury, there’s a powerful, non-invasive option gaining attention Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. This innovative method offers more than just relief—it supports deep, cellular healing.

What Is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is a process where individuals breathe 100% oxygen inside a pressurized chamber. This helps the body absorb more oxygen than it normally would through breathing alone. The result? Your cells get the fuel they need to heal faster and function better.

Oxygen is essential for tissue repair, brain function, and fighting infection. In HBOT, your bloodstream delivers enhanced oxygen levels to tissues, especially areas with poor circulation or damage.

Who Benefits from It?

This therapy is used by people managing a wide range of conditions. Whether you're an athlete recovering from intense workouts or someone dealing with lingering symptoms after surgery, HBOT can:

Reduce inflammation naturally

Enhance mental clarity and focus

Support the immune system

Speed up recovery from injuries

Improve circulation and oxygen delivery

It’s especially helpful for those with chronic fatigue, brain fog, or non-healing wounds—all conditions linked to low oxygen supply in tissues.

A Natural Alternative for Lasting Health

One of the reasons Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy stands out is because it encourages the body to heal itself. Instead of masking symptoms, HBOT helps your system recover at a cellular level. The increased oxygen:

Promotes cell regeneration

Lowers oxidative stress

Enhances detoxification

Improves energy and sleep quality

Encourages natural recovery from pain

These outcomes can be life-changing—especially for those seeking a holistic health solution without relying on medication.

What to Expect During a Session

Sessions are simple and relaxing. You’ll rest inside a special chamber while oxygen is delivered under increased pressure. There’s no discomfort—many people read, listen to music, or nap during their appointment.

Over time, the benefits build. After a series of sessions, patients often notice improved endurance, better skin health, and a sharper mental state.

Why Choose a Trusted Provider?

Choosing the right provider makes all the difference. Alive Health & Wellness in Southfield, MI, offers personalized care in a calming, professional setting. Their trained team ensures every session is comfortable and tailored to your needs.

You deserve a provider who understands your health goals and makes safety a top priority. Alive Health & Wellness delivers all that—plus experience you can trust.

Final Thoughts

If you’re seeking a therapy that supports your body without drugs or surgery, this is a smart step forward. You don’t need a major diagnosis to benefit—just a desire to feel better, naturally.

Hormone Receptor Resistance is a Real cause of Hormone Imbalance and Hypothyroidism

When Hormones Knock but No One Answers: The Reality of Hormone Receptor Resistance

Are you on thyroid medication but still not feeling like yourself? Tired, foggy, sluggish—even when your labs say everything’s “normal”?

This is a story many people with hypothyroidism share. The missing link might be hormone receptor resistance—a condition where your body’s hormone receptors stop responding effectively.

Think of it like this: the hormone (the key) is available, but the lock (receptor) isn’t turning. That’s what Dr. Ritamarie explores in her recent blog post. She breaks down how stress, blood sugar imbalances, poor detoxification, and inflammation can all interfere with hormone signaling.

Receptor resistance doesn’t just affect the thyroid—it impacts insulin, cortisol, and even sex hormones. So if you're treating symptoms without improving receptor sensitivity, you’re likely missing the mark.

This deeper understanding can help practitioners and patients move toward personalized, root-cause solutions instead of band-aid approaches.

A must-read for anyone battling hormone-related symptoms.

Have you ever asked yourself,

“What have I done to deserve this?”

It’s futile. Even if you received an answer, at best you can serve a cautionary tale, it does not help the situation. At worst, it creates simmering resentment.

Mostly, you never really get an answer. What you go through cares little of your past or how you got there. It’s not what matters anymore.

What matters is what you will do.

How you will keep going.

Your response.

Be resilient. Take breaks when needed. Then get back to yourself when you can.

Keep pushing for the POSSIBILITY of something better, something more. Look for the inevitability of change.

Finding Strength in the Journey: Chronic Illness Resilience Tips from Dr. Blied

Living with chronic illness means that managing symptoms is a daily part of my life. As someone who navigates living with lupus and fibromyalgia, I’ve developed strategies that help me balance my roles as a mother, wife, and clinician, while attempting to live gracefully with chronic illness.

Here are some practical approaches rooted in both science and my lived experiences:

1. Energy Pacing as an Act of Self-Respect: Learning to balance activity and rest helps prevent symptom flare-ups. I encourage creating a "daily energy budget" to focus on high-priority activities without depleting yourself.

2. Mindfulness Meditation as a Pain Management Tool: Evidence suggests that mindfulness practices can reduce symptoms, improve coping, and enhance overall quality of life across various health conditions (Greeson & Chin, 2019). So, set a timer for just 2 minutes and take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth, if you have access to do this. While breathing, think about your favorite place that you have been or want to visit (a room, a park, a beach, the forest) and visualize every detail that you can about that place. Invite all 5 senses into your visualization of this place. When the timer ends, return to your day feeling a little more relaxed and calmer. 

3. Building Community for Emotional Support: Chronic illness can be isolating. I advocate for connecting with others who understand the journey, offering a blend of clinical advice and personal insights on finding supportive communities. For example, Lupus LA has virtual support groups for lupus patients and their caregivers globally: https://lupusla.org/support-groups/. 4. Self-Compassion and Honoring Your Limits: No matter what each day looks like, remember to treat yourself with kindness and grace. Living with physical limitations and pain can cause extreme frustration. My mentor once told me: accept your limitations as God's gifts. After rolling my eyes, I reflected on the wisdom of this advice. When things feel out of your control, it is an opportunity for you to lean more into your faith and treat yourself with much more compassion. Your best will look different each day, and that is always okay.
