Off-Topic / Tips on not going crazy while on bed rest?

« on: December 25, 2016, 08:50:55 am »Message ID: 1112590

Anyone have tips to stay sane while on bed rest? It was unexpected, so I didnt plan for things like books, magazines, snacks, etc. I am literally moment to moment with this.

After about 7 years on this site successfully getting the bonus, I have had a series of life events that have kept me from completing the posting bonus for the past several months. I am now on bed rest, so maybe i can get it done at the last minute, lol.

Not able to this year because of a car accident and surgery. I had put up a small table top tree just after  day, so that is all that got done. Didnt even send christmas cards.

This year I am at home. I am on bed rest from an accident. Worse christmas ever. Even worse, is the anxiety I feel because I cant do anything!

Anyone ever dealt with a cervical sprain from whiplash (i was rear ended). I am wondering how long it takes to get back to feeling relatively normal. Blurry vision, numbness and tingling here and there, sore neck and jaw muscles, etc.

It is awful and such a helpless feeling when things like this happen around the US and world. I was looking at some of the articles on Louisiana flooding and it just hurt. It literally hurt to read about peoples anguish and so many losing everything for a second time!

It is also sad to see all the earthquake deaths in Nepal and in Italy. Sad.

No, I do not. I cant seem to get my mind to slow down. Lately, though, there has been so much sadness in my life, that keeps me up and gets me up early too. Around 5am I am hit with it and I cant go back to sleep.

I can't believe it is here either. I feel like it was just the start of summer, and now it is the end!
I've said it before, as you get older time goes by faster!

I have days where I go through a ton and then days where i barely can get a few sips down. I have horrible GERD so I think that plays a role.

I do. I dont love it, but I like it in the morning to help perk up (pun intended) and just sort of a comfort to start the day.
