Hi, I know what you mean… but have you tried to determine where that stress coming from? ( I know my question may sound stupid, but I went through a lot in my life)

I know it may sound loony toons, but personally I’m trying to keep my self busy, although I’m in constant pain. But with work, house and grandma duties, helps me a lot to get through days. Pain management clinic helped me a lot mentally. If you wish I can share whenever I learned with you

well I've suffered from psoriatic arthritis since birth did not become super difficult until my mid twenties and that's when I was officially diagnosed with that particular arthritis and about the time I became fairly accustomed with the psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis the muscular dystrophy started taking its toll and due to my can-do spirit I'm struggling with being disabled because to me I should still be able to do what ever I set my mind to do but I've learned the hard way that I can't but I love to smile and I love to see my family smile even more there was just so much more that I wanted to get done and yes thank you very much for the conversation unfortunately most of the time I have to so to speak sit on the porch and watch the world go by
