When you have physical ailment

I find my mental health suffers by laying in bed all day

I haven’t been laid out by anything yet. Knock on wood.

I get negative symptoms really bad when someone I care about dies. Maybe crochet or knitting would help. I don’t do it anymore, so I can’t talk. :wink:

Get well soon!

You deserve to be happy, @Daze. You’re recovering from a break-up? And that takes time. I hope you’ll get up soon, though, and go out and get motivated in your creative talents, etc. It’s ok to rest from the trials of life sometimes, but I hope you will find happiness soon.

No @Hedgehog

I hurt my back a few weeks ago

at first I couldn’t even walk or stand up

laid in bed on an ice pack

it was depressing and painful

anyway, I’m much better now

It’s hard when you have a psychical problem cos you don’t know if it’s the mental illness making you mentally ill or physical

my son and I hold hands with every one we greet and talk to

I think I’m the one who started doing it

now Alec does it

we used to do when working with the elderly

the physical human touch does something

Oh, @Daze, I’m so sorry! I’m glad you’re feeling better! That is terrible to feel trapped. :heart:

Being confined to inactivity can be a real mind game. I sometimes get gout in my foot and cannot walk well and that alone is crazy enough.
