hi S- I wanted to reply to let you know that I just prayed for you -
Also wanted to give some tips to consider ;)
1. intercessory prayer is what has rescued me many times - so get on prayer lists if you can!
I seriously know that others praying for me was key to my strength and stability during hardest times- The battle in the spiritual realm is real and we are stronger together - even if you do not have a church - some ministries take prayer requests! So try and submit them!
Also - the prayer times here on mel's site could be a good resource for praye - and I was never too proud to ask for prayer because I knew the power of it - ;)

2. pray for others -have a daily time set aside to where you lift up others - like pray for folks with morgs - pray for your family by name - and pray for whoever God puts on your heart! There is something potent about interceding for others and while it can help the recipient - it can empower you too! really -'try it and see" - and the prayers do not have to be super elaborate - like maybe just pray for them for strength - wisdom - protection - insight - stability - etc.

Also - get under good teaching and preaching - put in uplifting and wholesome stuff to fortify your mind and spirit - and I did this all the time even beyond coping with a weird illness! But all the more when u are on the front lines with a battle like this!
Like listening to good radio shows or getting tv recordings To have on hand! Andy Stanley or Joyce Meyer are teaching shows I love - and then binge watching a bunch of episodes can be a dose of vitamins for the psyche!
And worship songs really carry and fortify too- because sometimes an empty mind gets loaded with worry - so occupy that Space offensively!
My spouse uses his phone and has podcasts enriching his thinking on and off all day! From sports to theology - he keeps his mind fresh- has his good ear buds and just keeps good stuff coming in!
and for me - I also like to learn about a few Hobby topics - which leads to my next point

Get a small hobby just for you! -pray for one if you do not have any clue on what to endeavor - and not all hobbies cost a lot - but maybe you could do art - draw - color - or get a cheap set of paints and find tutorials on you tube! Or make salt clay - so cheap- and build little figures - then glaze them -the act of creating is soothing-
Or you could create music - or take up an I instrument - one lady I know took up flute and says it rescued her!
and explore the library - read snippets in the magazines- read about topics you like - and explore comics! Oh my gosh a good dose of Calvin and Hobbes is like a shot of b12 for me! Get a journal and write haikus or simple rhymes -write short stories or read short stories from classic writers!
I love writing kindergarten style rhymes and sometimes I write about the weather or my dogs - or someone who recently visited - this writing takes me away!
Feel free to ask Mel for my email if you want more ideas on hobbies.
5.
Get your hands on counseling resources - like books and workbooks - I found books on Amazon and went to a used book store - and here is where God showed up for me yet again - big time! He put used books across my path that I would not have NOT sought out! And nuggets from those very books fortified me - and sometimes taught me a lesson directly or just enriched my thinking. And they also made me fall more in love with God because he cares about the smallest details!
I know with brain fog reading is not always the first option - but even reading a paragraph or page at a time is helpful.
And sometimes Christian radio talk shows can be a resource - like I will never forget hearing a lady on a show - back in 1992 - she said after her horrid divorce God gave her the verse "all things work for good" (romans 8:28) this does not say all things "are" good - but they work FOR good to those who wait and trust - I was so young - but her story (testimony) infused me with strength / and i have seen over the decades that Romans 8:28 - can never be overused! I have seen so many wonderful things come from much hardship

So keep that in mind right now - much good can come from this - healing is the sum of the parts in the protocol and as you restore the bio terrain you may not always see or feel improvements - but the body is soaking up your supplements -
6
Learn more about burnout and recovery - because the exhaustion you feel is legit- so scour online for articles or workbooks for tips on recovering from burnout - some tips are sometimes universal for humans going through different things.
7
Draw closer to God - he is right there and will show his presence - and the word of God (bible) is ointment to your soul and so explore some chapters and verses that you feel led to- during a very hard season in my life back in the early 90s- I made a watercolor painting to go with a bible verse and it was powerful therapy!
I also hung up bible verses around my room:
"perfect love casts out fear" "we are strong by the power of the Holy Spirit" "I can do all things thru Christ who gives me strength" "he who called me is faithful - who also will complete the task he started in me" "God has not given me a spirit of fear - but a spirit of love - power and a sound mind" and "Call unto me you who are heavy laden and I will give you rest"
Find the verses you love or are drawn to and hang them up!

Yoga - I am partial to yoga for mind and body health - but it is hard to find intro classes and all that - check out Adrienne Reed website and she has twenty dollar videos from when she was on tv - it will be worth every penny to get one of her tv episodes because the mini yoga sessions are for all levels and they made me love yoga and my body was changed in less than two months - I was also finishing my dissertation at the time and I see that God gave me her yoga at that time because I would also need it for coping with morgs! For years I wanted to do yoga - but only Adrienne Reed's wonderful short sessions pulled me in - now I go to studios and take 2 classes in a row - but check out her website (just type in her name -and yoga) - or get a video from library - but that never worked for me

Two other things that I know helped my physical healing were borax foot Soaks and enemas.
The Borax foot Soaks were sometimes for 2+ hours four times a week - and sometimes add baking soda to the cup of borax - dont have time to mention why this is so helpful - but it is! Esp for skin -

Enemas (esp lemon water) can be used to remove build up and then sometimes an enema is used to gentle "retain" a bit for short periods - of course we ALWAYS do no harm and always do enema with safety first - but this easy and powerful activity really gets dismissed as yucky or not needed - but I know it was absolutely key to part of helping me heal - and I actually belong to a health group where hundreds of others inisist that healing must include enemas. Lemon water -Castor oil - or kefir ones that are mild and potent -

Ok - hope that helps and remember to bring every thought captive and to thank god for giving you wisdom -for giving you Freshness and stability-
Also - "self-fulfilling prophecy" can be used to make sure you "expect" good things instead of dread and doom- so tell yourself "I will be healed" l can do this"
" l will not be moved by what i see cos things are subject to change" and "I have the mind of Christ" or "I am stable and I will stay stable - because many people have this illness and we can recover and one day I will share my testimony and empower others with it - I will stand tall with clear skin and a healed gut (and full hair) and talk about how God rocks and how He is our shield and strength!"
Best wishes to you!
