A reminder to be grateful is a fantastic idea. Simple, and can be done anywhere and any time.

Books and cats are wonderful! Truly two of life's little joys.

That's very encouraging, thank you!

I am fortunate to live close to a beautiful nature area and I don't take advantage of that enough.

I'm really struggling this week between health, financial, and personal difficulties along with anxiety over the general state of the world.

Please share what helps you get through tough days.

Hydration is super underrated!

Sorry to hear you're having it tough lately. I have been too, and that's why I was trying to find the right group here to chat it out lol. I'm honestly surprised there's no community that's remotely relatable for what we're going through.

It most certainly does suck. It's be great to have a place where we can vent, talk about what triggers attacks and what helps prevent/soothe attacks. There was a sizeable community on Reddit, and I miss that resource.

If you don't mind me asking, how long have you had symptoms/been diagnosed? It's been an eight year struggle for me, but only recently diagnosed after moving states and seeing a new ENT.

Menieres is a disorder of the inner ear with the most pronounced symptoms being vertigo and hearing loss. I'd be happy with any mildly related communities also such as for non-visible disabilities, permanent progressive illnesses, hard of hearing, deaf, etc. I haven't found anything through searches yet and I'm not experienced enough to create or moderate my own community. Thanks!
