I feel insane

I'm so jealous of the connection the Na'vi have with nature. Maybe my lack of spirituality is catching up with me and I just want something to believe in. I don't believe in Eywa, but I want to believe the plants and animals around us understand a lot more than we think.

I come from a very science-oriented household. Almost everyone in my family is a doctor and I'm currently pursuing my own doctoral degree (won't specify which branch of medicine for purposes of anonymity). I'm diving headfirst into research and there is so much evidence to indicate that both plants and animals have a much higher level of understanding/sentience than we originally thought. I can't talk about this with my family because I just sound like a tree-hugger, but the evidence is there. It doesn't help that the political state of the world is so dire, most people would rather focus on something else.

Please, if there's anyone out there who wants to talk about this, I welcome any kind of conversation. I have an open mind, and I'd never judge anyone's spiritual/scientific beliefs. Even if you just want to talk about the world of Pandora or don't have any scientific background, I'd love to discuss this with someone. Thank you for reading.

Anybody have any naturopathic remedies for my pain and inflammation that I can use in addition to my prescribed stuff (tramadol, naproxen, and birth control)? Stuff backed up by science that can help a little here and there with my endometriosis and adenomyosis?

Currently drinking garlic rosemary teas or raspberry teas when it gets a bit rough even with the medicines in hopes of it helping a bit with its anti inflammatory properties and such, but I’m willing to try other stuff. I also use topicals sometimes like bengay or that Vietnamese green oil and heat therapy!

Any recommendations are greatly appreciated!!!

I force feed myself breakfast everyday.

No matter how delicious it looks, I just don’t crave it.

No matter how hungry I am, I’m just not satisfied.

I know nutrition is important, especially with a chronic illness but how do I prioritize it when eating makes me feel ill?

I was 10 chapters into reading a longfic and the author had Harvey prescribe a naturopathic turmeric remedy and I'd never abandoned something so quickly. Ugh. He would not fucking do that.

Tutti desideriamo Stare Bene, ma spesso la ricerca frenetica di questo benessere ci allontana da noi stessi. Il vero segreto della guarigione non è combattere il disagio, ma imparare a stare con quello che c’è nel presente.

I Fiori di Bach non sono semplici rimedi per eliminare un sintomo, ma compagni di viaggio che ci aiutano ad accogliere ogni nostra emozione, anche la più difficile.

Agiscono sul piano emotivo e mentale, influenzando di conseguenza anche quello fisico. Secondo Bach, l'assunzione delle essenze introduce una vibrazione nel corpo che riequilibra l'energia associata alle caratteristiche di quel determinato fiore.

ALL'INTERNO DEL LIBRO TROVERAI:

•Una descrizione dettagliata di ciascun fiore;

•L’organizzazione dei fiori nei diversi gruppi con le relative parole chiave;

•38 schede di sintesi;

•Modalità di utilizzo secondo il metodo Bach;

•Numerosi esempi di diluizioni;

•Pratiche tabelle riassuntive per un rapido consulto;

•Analogie tra guaritori, segni zodiacali e riflessologia

“Il punto non è stare bene per la maggior parte del tempo. Bensi rimanere interi quando ci sentiamo come ci sentiamo:connessi con noi stessi, in collegamento tra il dentro e il fuori. Attrezzati a stare. Stare e basta. Con l'emozione del momento.”

Stefania Andreoli, Psicoterapeuta e Scrittrice

I am feeling SO MUCH better today, no idea why. 😭 I feel like a whole new person again. So much energy!! I had my medication for the past two or three days, but I have doubts that it took this long for it to 'kick in', you know? So I wonder what the trigger was for the pain and inflammation to wane.

Regardless, I spoke with a good friend who experiences chronic illness via inflammatory issues and autoimmune issues, and so do some of her children and other family members. She's well-versed in the world of symptom management via naturopathy, so she made some sound recommendations for me. I'm going to start by adopting an anti-inflammatory diet. It seems the most sensible and least restrictive option, and has a lot of common sense health advice that I think anyone would agree with.

I'm going to suffer so much since I am absolutely obsessed with sugar and baking lol. But I think introducing a strong, stable, whole food diet for a while will have multiple benefits regardless, and if I notice that my symptoms are lessened because of it, great! And if I don't see a change in symptoms, I will talk to my doctor about the Autoimmune Protocol Diet.

The AIP is much more strenuous and restrictive, but it's a very specifically driven elimination diet. And I have a family history of heavy autoimmune disorders. So it is a concern I have in general. But because it's more involved, and I don't have a diagnosis for any of this pain yet, I'm trying not to take any extreme measures of my own. Just looking for relief that's safe, healthy, and within my control and access.

Does anyone have any experience with these diets, and have any advice or tips and recipes they want to share? :)
