New Here
Hello all. I'm new to the forum.
Have spent months since diagnosis doing nothing different with predictable results. Today, I'm changing that.
Life on the roller coaster is exhausting. I feel terrible for the people who have to deal with this 'new' me.
After a period of 'doing better' I had a terrible reaction to a short prednisone taper over the last week. It seemed to trigger the worst of the worst. A total overload of my stress response. I managed to come through it without literally ripping my hair out or killing myself because of intense utter despair and am feeling quite humiliated and guilty now that the insanity has abated.
Ugh. Today is another day, though. Maybe today will be better. It has got to be because yesterday was beyond NUTS.
Nice to find a community that can identify.
