  • I had severe headaches for years before a doctor that I trusted talked me into getting help from a local chiropractor with a good reputation. I’ve since learned a lot and would recommend a massage therapist or PT over a random chiropractor. Even then was skeptical. But this chiropractor was able to demonstrate exactly where in my neck the pain behind my eyes was coming from, provide me with some immediate relief, and help me with a path to long-term recovery. Biggest takeaway: posture is critical. Good posture is uncomfortable and tiring at first. You’ll get better at it and your muscles will adapt. It’s well worth the sacrifice. Wish I’d learned twenty years ago but better late than never.



  • Honestly? I doubt anyone will think twice about it unless you talk about it a lot.

    Regarding meds, the side effects are worse than I expected but the benefits are way better than I expected too. I wouldn’t hesitate to take your doctor’s advice in that area. Just having a baseline for how effortless it can be to handle complex tasks really puts into perspective how much more effort it takes for us. Your first few good days on Adderall or whatever will open your eyes. And if nothing else, you might learn to forgive yourself when you just can’t spare the effort for something in the future.
