I'm currently having a setback and it's been 2.5 weeks (I think). In my case, just about everything causes a relapse - walking up the stairs without taking breaks, any shaking of my head, even braking aggressively when I'm driving - the list goes on.

In this particular case, me and my son bumped into each other, no consequences for him (thanks God!), but I'm on my third week of my setback.

And I know exactly what you are talking about when you wrote that people roll their eyes at you. I'm going exactly through the same thing - for people I look perfectly normal (except for my broken ankle), so they just simple do not believe me.

Well, what helps me is that I just learned to not expect people to understand - they don't. Just do what you can/need to do to recover and don't expect people to understand that. My life became a little easier when I started doing that. People will roll their eyes anyway.

You will get better, we all do eventually
