Wow, your words mean so much to me! It's not always easy to keep pushing forward, but it's messages like yours that light up the tougher days. The determination? Sometimes I wonder too, but I guess it's just believing that as long as we keep trying, there is a chance. The moment you give up, you know for sure it's gone forever. I had a lovely time camping, it was only one night, but it was all I needed. I ended up not filming anything. I just needed a break from everything. Thanks for being such an amazing part of my journey. Your support is everything! 😊

I started therapy right before my diagnosis 4 years ago and being kind to myself if something doesn't go how I planned because of fibromyalgia is the one thing I still have trouble with. It sucks feeling like I'm not worthy of having my dreams come to life because of pain. Thank you for sharing! Knowing I'm not alone is conforting. I'm sending you a lot of love e support from Brazil ❤

With your positivity only four years in, I think you are incredibly strong. Therapy, learning how to cope during those flares, living with pain, shows your resilience and resilience is vital to continue to seek and to learn from others. I have found a good quality vitamin D is essential for individuals with fibromyalgia as well as magnesium. I agree with you about the wonderful community that Daniella has built. Cheers from Australia

@@user-dr6xn8fo9q honestly we have two options: learn to live dispite the pain or give up on life. I don't accept the last one. I agree with you about the magnesium and vitamin D! Specially the vitamin D part, since mine is chronically low. I've changed doctor and treatment last year, now I'm taking CBD, magnesium and vitamin D daily and I feel like a new person!!! The pain is waaaaay more manageable.

@@user-dr6xn8fo9q one thing I realized right in the beginning: i have the option of living dispite the pain and the option of giving up on life. The last one isn't attractive to me, honestly. We need to learn how to cope and not to blame ourselves because fibromyalgia is NOT our fault. We need the learn how to read our bodies and respect our boundaries... isn't easy, but those this are up to us. I agree with you about the magnesium and vitamin D.

The journey to self-compassion can be tough, especially when dealing with chronic pain that impacts so many aspects of life. But your worth and your dreams are not defined by fibromyalgia. You are so much more than your pain, and your dreams are still valid, even if the path to them looks different than you expected. By the way, are you from Brazil too? It's a beautiful thing to find connections that remind us of home and shared experiences. Let's keep supporting each other, sharing our stories, and reminding one another of the strength we have within. Much love ❤.

So sorry to hear that the trip is canceled yet again. Well, let's hope the 4th time be the lucky one. As for feet pain .... about 15 years my severe pain started. A quick google search showed it was plantar fasciitis. I go to the specialist, X-rays show nothing so it is dismissed as 'lose weight, do more exercises' (and I wasn't overweight and I walked for an hour every day, but had to stop due to foot pain) Fast forward to now; plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, 2 broken ankles later, the pain is real but honestly doctors are no help. I do all my own research - cold packs, hot packs, massage rollers, massages, lifting them up, but mainly insoles insoles insoles and the right shoes and not standing around but walking, keeping in movement or simply sitting. The foil wrap at the end looked exhausting so well done!❤... I need a rest myself 😸😹

Thank you so much for your empathy and for sharing your own journey with foot pain, it truly helps to know I'm not alone in navigating these challenges. I have also been diagnosed with plantar fasciitis. Your advice on managing the pain with insoles is great. I have just ordered some. Let's both continue to listen to our bodies, seek out the methods that bring us relief, and hold onto the hope for better days. Wishing you all the best in your journey to healing and less pain. And who knows? Maybe the 4th time really will be the charm for that trip. Take care and let's keep supporting each other.

Thank you so much for caring! 💖 It's definitely a tough pill to swallow, having to cancel the trip. Life's full of unexpected turns, and it's all about how we navigate them, right? Sometimes we just need to give up control a bit and let things unfold how they are supposed to unfold. We just need to keep believing that it is possible and as long as we keep trying, there is hope. The moment you give up, you know for sure it's gone forever. Your support means a lot to me, and I can't thank you enough for being so kind.

It was just for one night, and I made a conscious decision not to pick up my camera or touch my phone. It was a complete disconnection from the world. The weather was beautiful, and I found myself sitting on the beach, gazing out at the lake while letting the sand slip through my fingers. So, unfortunately, no video about this trip.

Yes, I go camping by myself all the time when it’s not cold. I camp out of my van so I just lock the doors at night. I feel super safe and I’m in a provincial park with lots of other people camping near me. The driving by myself part is usually the hardest because my back and foot hurt a lot when I sit for a prolonged period of time.

I hear you. I am so disappointed for you but with your tenacity Thailand will happen. It’s incredible what you achieve. Proud of you for organising a mini getaway. I had a trip to Vienna. To meet my hubby there and after some work, a honeymoon many years ago. On the second day I came down with severe flu like symptoms. I couldn’t get out of bed lol. We ended up going back to Saudi early. But we managed a holiday/honeymoon in Thailand eventually ❤. It was a dream. The lifestyle was so relaxing. Re your foot - I’ve come down with weird pain my whole left side including the soles of my feet. Now I have to organise a ketamine/lidocaine infusion which is a week in private hospital (so expensive but without insurance my complex cranial surgery could not have gone ahead. It was over a 7 year wait in the public system and getting longer the wait list. And now asap bilateral occipital nerve block and other neck vertebrae nerves targeted in public hospital which means an anaesthetic. I have to find some way to settle my very reactive nervous system so I can heal from surgery. The pain has been crazy bad, hideous. I shall live vicariously through you. 🎉 Wish you could visit Australia. We are hoping to take our car on the ferry to Tasmania. Around 12 hour trip. Then free to roam Tassie but neither of us have been well enough. I love your vlogs and your positivity. Enjoy nature and heal. Cheers Ellen. ❤

Ellen, your message is incredibly touching and filled with such warmth and understanding. It’s comforting to know we’re not alone in facing these ups and downs. Your experience in Vienna and the eventual trip to Thailand give me so much hope. It’s a beautiful reminder that sometimes, even when things don’t go as planned, there are still adventures waiting for us, just on a different timeline. I’m really sorry to hear about the challenges you’ve been facing with your health. The journey you're on with your medical treatments is a testament to your determination. I'm sending all my best wishes for your infusions and the procedures ahead. I don't know if you know but I also do Ketamine and Lidocane infusions. May you find the relief and healing you so deserve. Your plans for Tasmania sound amazing, and I hope you both will be well enough to make that journey soon. Your support and kindness mean so much to me, and your story gives me hope and courage. Thank you for sharing it with me and for being a part of this community.

@@tt_looking_glass you are a beautiful person who gets it. I wish you didn’t understand pain. You encourage everyone with everything you do. I’d love to hear about infusions - maybe some tips, advice. How to stay sane. My ability to concentrate is crap lol. I’ve had ketamine infusion before. I lost 7 kgs in a week and my blood pressure was sky high. I’m sure others in this community would benefit from your experiences with infusions as it’s a go to treatment for many chronic pain issues. My hubby had a lidocaine infusion trying to get the GBS pain under control. This meant I could be an informed advocate and ask for the infusion rather than them getting around to it. Simple things like what to take to hospital with you. I can see others in the earlier stages learning to seek treatment early. We also just confirmed my vertigo is due to the brain injury not my inner ear etc. my poor hubby is trying to do more and he has very little feeling in his fingers and feet so that’s problematic. We do manage to grow our own food. That grounding is so essential for my sanity. I think your trips into nature are about getting back to basics, grounding yourself and settling the CNS etc. Probably like me there was no real or reasonable treatments or early intervention but today there is hope for those in the early stages. But many of your followers seem to have dealt with this for years. I support you because you genuinely care. Also having a stationary bicycle is useful. We have to keep moving. Yes we need rest. I found a reiki sleep hypnosis for deep muscle relaxation. I’ll put her name in a comment later for you. You could do a video for those in pain ASMR lol with words of reassurance and wisdom. You have the skills to do that. For people to play over and over. Just some thoughts. xoxo I’m at exhaustion and babbling. I’d love to see you reach more more people.

I'm truly moved to hear about your own experiences and I appreciate you opening up about the challenges and the impact it has had on you and your family. Sharing this kind of information is invaluable, not just for me but for our entire community. The idea of exchanging tips, advice, and just knowing what to expect can significantly ease the journey for many. Your approach to seeking treatment early, advocating for the best possible care, and finding solace in nature resonates deeply with me. The grounding effect of growing your own food, and the therapeutic benefits of connecting with the earth, are experiences I share and value immensely. I want to start growing a garden this spring. I'm intrigued by your suggestion to explore ASMR content for pain. I will definitely explore this idea. I'm honoured to have you as part of this community and grateful for the connection we've formed.
