Just came to me. I'm in no way minimizing our pain. I know firsthand the excruciating pain we feel. In 3rd world countries, ppl are dying of starvation, no clean water, and water-borne diseases caused by it. It's good to remember that. #TheMighty #MightyTogether #Perspective #Pain #physical #Death

Wellness Wednesday: Physical Activity & Diabetes Management: Complications
In this community, we talk a lot about the benefits of regular physical activity in managing diabetes. Unfortunately, there are people living with diabetes in this community who find it difficult to incorporate physical activity, and it's not because they are lazy. Rather, there are serious complications that could prevent some of us from exercising regularly.
Read the following article about 3 Reasons Why Exercise With Long-term Diabetes Can Be Hard:

#physical fitness works for me. I have gone back to the senior center where I was a member. About three years ago I stopped coming to the center in a neighboring city and it was difficult to get there in the winter and we decided to stop because of distant travel of about 15 miles. I have rejoined that center and I am using the fittness room and enjoying a treat in the coffee shop there. This center has won many awards for excellence and because I work out 2x a week and walk at home, I am becoming more fit and burning excess energy. Today my psychiatrist said he wanted to see me in one month. He wants to make sure joining the center isnât making me manic or hypomanic. I think I am just getting ready to keep track of my increased health and lose of weight. I have lost sd almost 25 lb so possible burning up calories and I could be getting into trouble. He will check my BP and see if I have calmed down. I B want to make use of my fitness center twice a week. $50 year and $45 for the fitness center. Many machines to work off steam and socialize with other seniors. I have bipolar disorder and I have terrible arthritis in my spine extended now into my extremities so I must watch my excitement and sometimes sit quietly. I know how to get calm and now I will use my medication techniques. This is a help with excitement. With exercise and calm, I can control pain and anxiety. Breathe and calm helping with pain and biological medication with a small dose of pain relief medication. I take bipolar medication as well and that helps

Precious day.
Goodmorning, beautiful people, I'm a newbie here. It must have been a gift from the heavens to receive a random email from The Mighty. I read about the community and the purpose behind what The Mighty had created. It was perfect timing, and I don't believe in coincidences. I am so happy to be apart of a community of people who can help each other heal and share their stories. I send my love and light to everyone ⨠đ.

#physical /emotional/spiritual growth #don 'tleavebeforethemiracleoccurs
My young-mid adult decades were filled with a substance abuse disorder and undiagnosed psych needs. I endured decades of emotional/psychological abuse. Decades, decades, of daily recovery work---THOSE ARE THE REASONS I STILL TRY, EVERY SINGLE DAY! Decades of darkness have made me so aware and appreciative, and happy over so many little things. Yep, push, push,; I hope you all find your special strengths, desires, goals!

#crutches #embrace #Selfacceptance #coffee #ChronicFatigue
I make no apologies for my crutches I use to help my #ChronicPain , #Depression & #Fatigue . in fact I embrace them & am very grateful for them. #Caffeine #cigarettes #vitaminb-12 (I'd smoke #MedicalMarijuana ( was approved. over a year ago in April & even have a card ) but #THC messes with my #Schizophrenia & I get tense , intense, #stressed & #anxious , & sometimes even slightly #Paranoid . So I suffer taking meds for #Pain that are actually psyche #meds that hardly make a dent. (#Gabapentin ) #my Life #sucks so the ppl that #criticize & put me #down for smoking cigs can go to heck for voicing their #ignorant #Judgemental #opinions . which they so freely #Voice regarding my smoking & high #Caffeine intake. I am not afraid of #Death & in fact , welcome & #Pray for it, have felt this way all my life. Ppl need to face their own #Demons , faults & weaknesses instead of constantly distracting themselves by getting into other ppls business. I #ignore them . I am #Deaf to their assinine stayements. I #mentally float away & I do what #helps my #Nerves (I inherited bad nerves (#physical AND #emotional ) & that helps me cope with a #Life I #live as a #Prisoner doing time. It's just a waiting #Game , Just A matter of #time .

#crutches #embrace #Acceptance #coffee #ChronicFatigue #help
I embrace my crutches!!! #Pain ,& chronic fatigue & #Depression ate all proven to be helped to be relieved ( a tiny bit-but what the heck! My #meds hardly help much either)......i embrace I use of cigarette smoking cuz it MOST DEFINITELY helps me cope with #Stress & my (inherited) bad nerves (#physical & #mental / #emotional ) I am,not ashamed of my crutches! In fact, I enjoy a love affair with them & am #grateful as I can be for them !!! To heck with all the ignorantly critical ppl that make statements & voice their judgemental opinions -instead they should be working on their own stuff. Ppl need to more so mind their own business instead of distracting themselves away from looking. Inside themselves (their own demons , faults, & weaknesses ) Get the heck off my back & to heck with them!!!

#Therapy for lifelong #Trauma #PTSD 1st time at 37 #help !!!
#Trauma #Therapy for #PTSD 1st time really âreadyâ to open up with #Psychiatrist at 37 #childhoodtrauma #abuse #neglect #fearofabandonment #psychologicalabuse from a father that I would describe as #CharlesManson with a #TheBible in one hand and #Alcoholism in the other. In addition to a family that #rejected me completely so much so that on both sides of my #Divorced #Family I had rules that if I walked in the room within one minute all of my cousins had to leave my #physical presence because I was just #different but never had #behavioral #Problems just major misunderstandings and what seemed like a lot of #bad luck because of the many #Labels that seem to get stuck to me throughout the years in public #Education . So I was sent to live #alone with my #Father at 11 on a #cult like farm with no access to the outside world (no modern technology including TV, Radio or Phone) and he #brainwashed me as a #Child to never speak to anyone or they would lock me up and throw away the key or call me a liar and ignore me completely. So I have major #Trust #issues and have no clue where to begin when I see my #Therapist via video this week. I also have #ADHD with a #mind that is #hyper #creative and #super analytical seems like a #Gift and #Curse when expressing my #Thoughts and #Emotions #help #Advice #ParanoidThoughts
