Not sleeping well
Hello all. I am a newbie here and I saw that there is a discussion board for sleep. I have had trouble with sleep for the last couple of years. I suppose that part of it could be my age. The changes women go through, etc. I have also been going through a lot of pain, which wakes me up. Yesterday I was told that I have…

Self-care and Depression
Hey guys. When I feel blue (extra depressed/sad) I lose my ability to care about myself - ie, not logging food, not eating as well, not going for a walk or doing my PT exercises. My usual Christian practices lapse too & when I do pray it doesn’t help. Any thoughts on how to overcome this cr*p??

Staying Healthy While Sick
I've been carefully losing weight over the last 3 months (history of food issues, so I'm being mindful). Recently I got into a musical and am trying to lose another 30 pounds before we open (80 pound goal overall, lost 20 so far). Well, the day came. I am sick. My throat is scratchy, I'm tired, I'm congested, and even…

I have a very difficult time falling asleep some nights. Well a good bit of nights 😅 I’ve tried melatonin and all the usual sleep aids, and the nutritional and exercise changes have been done.

What tools are available to change the mindset from "comfort eating" to "fuel?"
I use my sleep, nutrition and exercise as an overall baseline. I use it to check and see if I don't feel well for some reason, that at least I have ruled these out. Nutrion has always been comforting since my younger years. How do I change my mindset and carve new pathways mentally to say to myself, "Food is only there to…

How to Stop Eating When not hungry
I used to be really good at staying in my regime- kept weight off for 3 years straight. However, now I can’t stop putting things in my mouth, I find myself eating stuff when Im not even hungry, it’s like I just want to taste things. But even when I do that, it doesn’t bring me any joy or satisfaction: it’s like a weird…

Peri-menopause and Fatigue/Sleep Patterns (not insomnia)
Ladies, bear with me for a second! So, my body has always insisted that my 'best' sleep was going to be a bit of a night owl and not getting up until 8-10am (give or take). I've been able to force my body to adjust to a "early" schedule, but it's still never where my body is happiest - but I could force the issue and it…

Heal shoulder naturally?
Hi - New here. I have a high-grade rotator cuff tear. Had surgery last year on a different tear, and I really don’t want to have another surgery.

Headphones while sleeping
I actually sleep with headphones as a matter of principle. Sometimes with music (whatever), sometimes with "sleeping noises" like rain on a tin roof. Sometimes I just have the headphones on to minimise ambient noise. What experiences have you had with headphones? Which ones do you use? In-ear or over-ear? I had over-ear…

food for comfort
Just an insight, I read some phycological advice to help people calm down get them to eat. I think my mother did this when i was a child and teen. I learned to go to food to feel calm. I still do this. Emotional eating when ever I am angry or nervous, feeling anxious. My primary Care Doctor calls this self medicating. I am…

This is relating to wellness in a very broad sense... Does anyone have any experience with getting diagnosed as autistic as an adult (and as a woman)?
