I’m curious to know for all my family out there, what music do you listen to when coping or trying to connect with your higher power? If you don’t have a higher power, what do you use to connect with yourself at the deepest levels?
That's a good question, I try to listen to music and does not connect me with any spiritual guide that I need. I go to church and I don't find the spiritual guy there either I Believe in the Higher… read more
I need to change my mind set. I need help. Positive attitude, ideas so maybe my family will react to me differently. Thank you
We are family here and understand on this site. This is what we are all about. We all have chronic pain but no two are alike but have this in common.
As me Cathy .I know very well how you are feeling. I thought I'd make a bit light. God knows we all need that. 🤗🤗
went to a neurologist.....did not get any help....Waste
I’m curious, do you think this platform should have instant messaging capabilities? 🤔
