I am in the same boat.

Since 7/2012 my pcs, ptsd, convergence insufficiency, bppv and all felt like it was a manageable and slow process of recovery. I am reeling after getting a virus/flu/crud that has had me out for a week. I watch my husband run himself tired caring for our 3 boys and going to work. I feel humiliated, sad, and worried. And awful physically.

It is hard to stay positive and focused on each moment, doing what we must for ourselves to rest/recuperate and hoping for the good brain days.

I have found a lot of grace and solace from everyone here. It really is about staying in the moment (not racing to the past in anger or running from the future in fear), just doing what you can to bring relief, peace, and calm to yourself.

It can be so simple and so complicated to do so, but I think it is essential.

I hope you find some moments of calm today!
