I feel so impacted emotionally as well by all of this. I am simply taking some Armour Thyroid and doctor-recommended supplements, yet it is affecting my moods tremendously. I rarely feel anxious (unless there is some good reason) and definitely don't feel depressed or anything close to it. I have had challenging emotional situations and have reacted to them differently than in the past, better, stronger, more like "me" and in a way I am proud of.
And amazingly, I'm just at the start of my treatment plan. We have yet to address several other issues. My goal was to be able to get out of bed and function, albeit at a sub-optimal level. I'm finding that I'm getting a whole new life. Words really cannot convey the hope I have and the joy I have that I'm holding back just to make sure it's real.
So I wanted to share it all with you on this Wellness Wednesday!
PS. I felt like waving a flag today and what better than a Hawaiian flag!

I think it's wonderful that you keep pursuing this as much as you are, doing all you can to make things better. Eventually, you will find the formula that works best for you.
I've kind of adapted in a weird way.
Hm. Something to think about. :)

Chani, I think you've done what you can and adapted about that. I think you've adapted in a good way. You are you! I don't think anything about you is "weird". just "good eccentric", which is also how I think of myself. I think that people who are "good eccentric" are much more interesting than others!
I am still introverted, just not intolerantly introverted. For example, I don't like crowds and loud noise, but I can stand it better if I have to deal with it.
I even enjoy being alone way more, too. Today I spent a lot of time handling work issues (LoveHubbie's business) on the phone and the rest of the time stayed in and loved it more than usual because I made so much of the time.
I am running around catching up on lots of things I let go when I was ill. It's just nice to be able to do that.
Really nice!
Much love,

Wonderful news Olivia! It is a terrible thing to lose yourself to illness, and the contrast when you find yourself well agian is so sharp.
Welcome back!
Feels like you are waving a flag of hope ! Sending prayers and good vibes that it continues to get better and better for you !
