The Wednesday Wellness threads are meant to encourage users to ask for and provide advice and motivation to improve their lives. It isn't intended as a 'containment thread' and any content which could go here could instead be posted in its own thread. You could post:
-
Requests for advice and / or encouragement. On basically any topic and for any scale of problem.
-
Updates to let us know how you are doing. This provides valuable feedback on past advice / encouragement and will hopefully make people feel a little more motivated to follow through. If you want to be reminded to post your update, see the post titled 'update reminders', below.
-
Advice. This can be in response to a request for advice or just something that you think could be generally useful for many people here.
-
Encouragement. Probably best directed at specific users, but if you feel like just encouraging people in general I don't think anyone is going to object. I don't think I really need to say this, but just to be clear; encouragement should have a generally positive tone and not shame people (if people feel that shame might be an effective tool for motivating people, please discuss this so we can form a group consensus on how to use it rather than just trying it).
Jump in the discussion.

Notes -
I’ve posted about before, but I’m constantly dealing with this issue on-and-off that feels vaguely autoimmune:
Joint pain Muscle cramps Muscle spasms Neck and shoulder pain and tension
I found some significant relief through LDN and going lite keto, but some days I’m really floored by it (and it feels like it’s getting a little worse again). I went to a neuro years ago and nothing from Lyme tests to antinuclear came back positive.
I’m pretty afraid I’m treading water with what is an autoimmune issue, but I have no faith in the medical establishment to figure out what this is. Any advice?
Are you sure you're not sitting or sleeping in a sub-optimal position?
