I can't help but feel like it is somehow my fault any time I have a pain flare up.
I drive myself bonkers trying to figure out the cause:
Not exercising enough?
Inadequate nutrition?
IDK. Sitting wrong???
I've had chronic pain since the age of 7. That's over 20 years now. I have a progressive illness. Logically, I know none of this is my fault. My brain still tells me it is.
Possibly has something to do with my mom peppering me with questions if I mention feeling worse than usual.
"Have you been eating enough protein?"
"Are you doing your PT exercises?"
"Going for walks?"
"How much sugar are you eating? You know that's bad for inflammation."
For some reason, she's also always telling me to eat blueberries???
I know she means well. I know it must be hard to see her kid in pain. She's not blaming me for being sick. She probably just wishes there was some quick fix to make it better.

Help a girl out please and SEND ME SOME SHOW RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE 90'S
Because of my painsomnia I need comfort shows at night. Preferably from the 90's/00's
I have a schedule haha
Atm I always watch ER after 3 at night. (because that's when I'm trying to have my brain calm down and hoping my sleep meds work) But I'm close to season 13 and it's til 15seasons.
So I could REALLY use recommendations
The other ones I am also watching but before 3 at night are:
Buffy the vampire slayer
Charmed
Grey's anatomy (but I'm at the more modern seasons now and yeah.. Losing interest more)
Just so you now what kind of genre's. I love supernatural, crime and medical.
These are the streaming services I have: Netflix, Prime, disney+ and HBOmax
So please please help me.
I need to be prepared for when this one ends. Otherwise I go crazy and get extremely anxious at night 🙃.
Thank you in advance!

I think people without chronic pain just don't get it! They don't get that waking up in the night isn't just a case of peeing and going back to sleep. It's more of a case of laying there hoping sleep will give you some fucking relief. It's questioning what you did the last few days That's made this specific pain worse right now. It's calculating whether you can take painkillers yet or if it will mess up needing to take them in the day. It's also so fucking boring. you're too tired to do anything except maybe use your phone but often not when that so you just have to lie there trying not to think about the pain. Which is impossible. It's worrying that being awake now at night is going to make the day even harder than usual and trying to calculate the spoons you'll have to do the things you need to versus the things you want to. And wishing you could just cancel it all and sleep but it's 5am and you can't sleep now so how can you assume you'd be able to sleep in the day either.

My stomach hurts and I feel nauseated and there’s random heartburn (even though I took my acid reflux meds today). Bad enough I’m definitely not getting to sleep anytime soon. What is going on, body? Is it the drainage? Stupid mucus not sitting well? Ugh.
