  1. New video posted on The Panicked Diaries Channel!

    Kind of a silly topic I suppose, but a lot of us bedridden/bedbound folks have plushies to keep us company.

    I go over different collections, and which ones I think are the best!

  5. I did a quick product review of some facial cleansing pads that I had purchased by Desert Essence.

    Trying to maintain personal hygiene while bedridden w/o in-person support, is a challenge.

    Facial wipes help to keep part of my body clean.

  6. I’ve been pretty #sick twice in the last 12 days.

    For a couple of those days I was #bedridden.

    I got to thinking about it. I’m on new meds for my severe #arthritis

    I did a google search for my meds along with the term “side effects”.

    It listed something like 10 side effects.

    When I’ve been sick I’ve had something like 6 of them!

    Another side effect is “ringing in the ears” - I have tinnitus, so if I have that, I’m not noticing any difference to the normal ringing.

    Hmmmm.

  7. " #Thaksin -- a #convict who was #bedridden for 6 months -- seems to be in rude health; there are no traces whatsoever to suggest that, about 3 weeks ago, he was declared to be a gravely #sickman who could hardly help himself .. He was seen briskly walking unaided under the scorching sun .. defeated is the #justice system that has become a #farce in the eyes of average people .. He needs to walk away gracefully while there are people who still love & admire him" #Thailand

  11. My new #EmotionalSupportBunny is warm and sweet but also rebellious - we can't free roam him the way we did with Dalilah

    This makes the days I have been #BedRidden from emotional exhaustion and #ChronicPain and fatigue feel so much worse

    My #CPTSD makes these aspects of my physical health worse when I can't keep my family housed and safe and fed

    I can't afford to risk getting hospitalized to push my body and mind beyond their limits because my #elderly mother relies on me daily

    My #bunny too

  12. @tomkindlon @mecfs Being #bedridden does not preclude the possibility of #WFH, if such is available. However, the #cognitive effects of #SevereME make any kind of work impossible. Personally, most of the time, I cannæ recall to eat, drink, take meds, wash, etc. without being prompted.

  13. @MarkMaguire @kevinteljeur @SarahDelahunty @lucyweirphd I am still on Twitter because more #pwME & #pwFM & #pwLC and #disabilities in general are over there. I have been connecting slowly with folk here, but, with one or two wonderful exceptions, there is almost no interaction here. I am #housebound & #bedridden: SM is my only social-life, or help-point. Unless matters deteriorate drastically it is unlikely that many #disabled groups will move elsewhere.

  18. This was a day I was #bedridden (like the vast majority of my days). #Stress (I suffer from #SocialAnxiety, general #anxiety & resultant #PanicAttacks) placed me in the fat-burning zone for nearly 10.5 hours. And this, whilst not occurring every single day, is the dominant feature of my Fitbit reports. No #AntiAnxiety meds for nearly 5 months.

    No #medications No #SocialCare Minimal #FoodAndWater No #HygieneSupport No help with #Dressing etc.

  19. I just tweeted - the orgs are not on Mastodon as far as I know:

    “Housemate made a rare visit home during the working-day, so I got a snack - a buttered hot-cross bun with an espresso. 😊

    #SocialCareCrisis #Bedridden #SevereME

    Only average 1 meal/day usually.

    @CareQualityComm @TraffordCouncil @gmpolice “

  20. Over the past few days I went 26 hours without a meal, at which point ex-boyf stepped in, came over and cooked some pasta. Then another 49 hours without a meal. In the past 13 weeks I have averaged exactly one day/week with no food. I ate 1 meal per day on average. #SocialCareCrisis #pwME #bedridden #SevereME #Malnutrition #BloodSugar #Dehydration

  21. Final two dating-apps deleted. My dating-life is officially ended, although it de facto ended a couple of years back when my health deteriorated under the ‘care’ of #TraffordCouncil due to their failures to ensure I was fed & hydrated properly, becoming mostly #bedridden. #SocialCare #SocialCareCrisis

  22. Knuckle (ring finger mcp) I accidentally hit 7 1/2 weeks ago still agonisingly painful if moved wrong - fine for most movements but there are a few that cause sudden 8/10 pain. Not good

    Aside from talking to my physio some more which is scheduled, I can’t figure out anything else I can do that’s actually #accessible… it isn’t bad enough to risk disability progression by going for a scan

    It’s things like this where the medical system just totally fails #bedridden people :(

    #NEISVoid

  23. The universe should hurry up and invent an affordable household robot that can fetch me objects from other rooms, fridge, freezer, pantry, etc

    It would make #Bedridden life a whole bunch better

    #NEISvoid

  24. @will_ins_Gruene Alas, I am 99% #bedridden. I try to get downstairs once/week, but this is the first time in eighteen days. Spent an hour in kitchen then crawled up the stairs to first-floor sitting-room. Forty-five mins. in recliner. Then crawled up next flight to my bed-cell. Stuffed & happy! #SocialCareCrisis

  25. May interest #bedridden &/or #housebound, “A hot bath has benefits similar to exercise” (link below) per #LoughboroughUniversity, who “showed changes to the inflammatory response similar to that following exercise. The #AntiInflammatory response to #exercise is important as it helps to protect us against infection and illness… This suggests that repeated passive heating may contribute to reducing chronic inflammation.”

  26. @kfarinsky As a severely #disabled & #ChronicallyIll #bedridden person, with poor #homeostasis, and catches bugs rather easily, I cannæ afford to take the risk. Additionally, my GP took a year or so to decide I could have a vaccination and which one, but then failed to give any follow-up jabs. I have to protect myself as best I can, not just from #Covid19.

  27. @goodlawproject I am severely #disabled & #ChronicallyIll resulting in my being #bedridden c.99% of the time. For myself #parks are of no use, unless they contain planting that encourages insects or trees to clean the #air - not all do! However, children need somewhere to #play, to run about, etc. Even expensive #MiddleClass homes are constructed with tiny #gardens. Most children need #OpenSpaces. I am a retired reception-teacher (Kindergarten).

  28. @mister_goldfish Not well. Still sporadically attempting to obtain appropriate #SocialCare from #Trafford Council. Mostly rec’g a snack at 16.00 & dinner c.20.00, but #Carers mostly forget #hygiene, #dressing, and so on. With my #memory issues I rarely recall to do things myself, and even if I do, being #bedridden means I cannæ do things w/o carer-support. Enough about me. How are Mrs. Goldfish & yourself doing? 💙
