Mental health update and self care products I used today.
มุมมอง 979 หลายเดือนก่อน
When your mental health is poor, know it is not you. It’s your brain, thoughts and biology that need extra care. Today I share how I’ve been doing and what I choose to do to help get myself out of depression. Take care of yourself. Every part of it. You deserve to feel better. Tell your loved ones how you are struggling and how they can help. I asked my spouse to check in on me with specific qu...

I was in the hospital again. See why, what happened and what I learned about strictures. triacinalone acetate - the steroid injection into the stricture Research article on strictures www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2999060/

I read from a post on Instagram from “The Cancer Patient”. It really hit home and for the first time I didn’t feel alone in my ambivalence about life. If you have any feedback, please share and start a conversation. I’d love to learn and grow from this confusing experience. Thank you for your continued support - I appreciate you.

BRCA Gene, 14 appointments per year

As an Ovarian cancer patient, I discuss how many appointments per year I have, and the types, for surveillance of cancer and what it is like to juggle them with a full time job. The privilege I have is, this is just me as I have no children to care for.

    I hate that this happened to you, MJ, that your concerns were ignored for so long. Thank God for your knowledge and experience to know to continue saying "this isn't right." So glad to hear you're meeting with such a capable surgeon soon. Such an important reminder for all of us to advocate for ourselves when something feels wrong in our bodies. Love to you, friend.

    WOW Melisa... So frustrating to be dismissed like that for so long. I'm impressed by your analysis of all of it. So logical and makes sense. I hope the new surgeon will support your insightful analysis and partner with you!

      Yes, the MRI impression hit me hard. Like a punch in the gut. When I read it I swear I couldn’t breathe for a bit. I was so angry then I could not stop crying for a couple days. The tears just kept coming as I remembered everything I went through and now I knew exactly why and how they dismissed me. I’m shaking my head as I type this…. It still hurts me a bit mentally but I’m happy to have the result and a highly skilled professional to go to next.

    I am sorry you have to go through this.

Anyone in your position would feel the same way. Lean on everyone around you who loves and prays for you.

    Hiii. I made the microphone comment. I can hear you on my phone, but for some reason, when I watch from my TV, I still have to raise the volume max, but no worries. I can watch it on my phone. Thank you for doing what you did.😊❤

    • @melisasgoodlife7731
      @melisasgoodlife7731 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hi, maybe I'm the only one but I notice when I watch your videos, especially on my TV. I have to raise the volume to 💯. I think it is since you're soft-spoken and/or maybe there's no microhone🎤. As always, good updates/information. Im glad you are ok. Love all the hair! Thanks for sharing.❤

    • @melisasgoodlife7731
      @melisasgoodlife7731 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you for letting me know. I’m doing these on my phone lately so there is no microphone. That’s likely the issue. I’ll get reacquainted with my video camera with a microphone and see if that helps. Thank you for watching with such low volume! ❤️❤️

    • @melisasgoodlife7731
      @melisasgoodlife7731 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you for sharing that, Dan. ❤️ We all go through these phases as complete human beings. If we don’t admit it, even if it’s just privately to ourselves, we are abandoning ourselves and losing an opportunity to heal. We will get there, I know it! Everything changes all the time. Virtual hugs to you. I’ll pray for both of us to heal.

  • @JP-mo1dy
    @JP-mo1dy ปีที่แล้ว

    It is so hard not feeling the way you think you should feel or being disciplined, but all that is deep down in you already. You have been through a lot, and I know you will dig that back up again, and it'll be better than before. If anyone can do it, it is you. It's already there. Give yourself grace. ❤

    • @melisasgoodlife7731
      @melisasgoodlife7731 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks, I’m getting there. Rebuilding is much harder than maintaining. Especially when you have no clue what the heck is going on. I’ll never quit. Some days are just harder than others and I feel like I have more bad days than good ones (mentally). Thank you for the continued support. I hope you are well ❤.

    • @JP-mo1dy
      @JP-mo1dy ปีที่แล้ว

      @Melisa's Good Life I agree about rebuilding. Especially with no accountability or someone to do it with.

    @jamied.7166 ปีที่แล้ว

    You are a warrior and inspiration! The discipline will return, but it’ll take time. You have been through a lot, in many ways. Your body is tired. You’re listening to what it needs. Let me know if you want an accountability partner. I could use some re-disciplining myself ❤️
