[QUOTE=BioBased;1182627]It does give hope to read about other CRPSers who are able to do more than sit suffering at home. I am in awe, only because after an hour of Hatha yoga I barely make it home. I am too tired to take my clothes off and I generally sleep from 4pm to dawn the next day.

NurseKris I dragged out my colored pencils and an instruction book so I could start drawing again, or maybe try my hand at Zentangle.

I read in one sitting, "The Girl in the Spider's Nest."[/QUO

BioBased, I'm not sure how long you've been living with CRPS, but I've found it is best (for me at least) to focus on my abilities (however small they may be) verses my "disabilities" or things I can no longer do, or can only do with causing myself harm or great pain. Focusing on what I can do gives me strength, focusing on what I can no longer do makes me depressed. Going to yoga is a huge accomplishment, especially if you are doing this on a regular basis. You should be proud of yourself for this One little step at a time. Some days are better than others for I'm sure majority of us here.
