I hate myself/my body

Just that, really. My brain doesn't work (head injury and medication induced neurological involuntary movement disorder), and won't be the same again.

My hormones are horrible and perimenopause is awful. I've just cleaned my teeth and my guns bled so much on the first day of my period that I was spitting loads of blood out - much more than usual. I cry at how painful they are sometimes, in spite of meticulous oral health. Lots of other symptoms but I'm too scared to take HRT as I worry it might make my movement disorder symptoms worse.

Add to all this just a general dislike of myself since childhood, I am sat here feeling a bit crappy

Sorry for the depressed post 😞

I feel the same sometimes. I also have functional neurological disorder. I'm currently doing therapy with a therapist who also has FND. Also, I have an app called Liven which is helping me to reframe some of my negative thoughts with CBT therapy.
