Not able to cope when unwell

Ava

I’m isolated and have no friends. I’m unwell with a migraine and face and jaw pain. My moods bad and my brain is overwhelmed. 

Do any of you panic more when your ill?

or panic less??

im not able to read long replies and reply as I’m not well but if you do say something thanks in advance and ps I struggle with replies and always want to thank people for replies and reading anyway.

ps if there’s any suggestions on where to meet friends in northern UK that would be good and I mean online or people to chat to who understand as I’m more upset now that I’m more isolated and could do with some friends.

  • Hello, I'm sorry you are in pain. I'm sure you've thought of paracetamol. Make sure you aren't clenching your teeth.

    Pain is dysregulating. Your heart rate may also be higher. Your body may interpret this as a threat and cause panic. Try to relax, don't pressure yourself, think of something nice. 

    I have lower limits when I'm ill I think, but I'm not sure I have more panic sensation, as I do less.
