This is not a mod-approved thing but I want to support the sub so I thought a (daily?) thread where we can check in with each other might be nice. I can see it being easier to post a comment where you ask for help rather than a whole new post.


I'll start.

I've been dealing with undiagnosed chronic pain for about 18 months now. While I'm not always in pain, I am in severe pain every single day.

I fell back into a depression that I had climbed out of 3 years prior and was mired in it again for more than a year.

After a lot of work, I've pulled myself far enough back up that I'm just starting to feel the breath the of wind and the touch of the sun.

I feel strong, committed, and able. I recently took up my volunteering work again and it felt so good to feel useful.


How are you doing?

Let us know even if everything is great too! You deserve to enjoy it and others benefit from hearing it.
