Last minute beach retreat

Considering coming to Maine this week for my bday. Haven’t been in years but ex in laws were in kennebunkport so I know that area very well. Looking at either there or boothbay area which I don’t know. Hoping for a quiet few days to swim, kayak, birdwatching, hike, read and draw. Is it swimming weather yet? Crowds insane? Any suggestions of good spots? Or would I be better off coming after Labor Day?

Bday blues

Hey bitches. Have a significant bday coming up next week. It will be my first ever without kids or dog and nobody is around that I’d want to spend it with. I took a few days off with the idea of maybe going away for few days but I have a neck injury and can’t drive too far so I’m a bit stumped. Camping is also out rn sadly. I may just give myself a day off and try and make it special but honestly I’m stuck for ideas. Been dealing w chronic pain/injury for over two years that stops me doing a lot of what I love, and this past yr has been especially rough. Would appreciate any suggestions that you all may have.

Weird side effects

Titrated up over weeks, have been at 3mg for a couple weeks now en working up to 4.5. First couple weeks had severe fatigue and some crying spells but other than that was doing ok.

Now I am feeling a whole host of things and unsure what’s related to LDN and what isn’t.

The biggest feeling is, I don’t know how else to put it, but feeling done with everything. Not depressed exactly, not tired, just like I need everything in my life to change immediately. I have no tolerance for bs.

It’s like it unleashed everything I’ve been holding back for years. Does that make any sense?

I’ve also noticed I absolutely cannot have large amounts of sugar while on this - did this yesterday and my pain increased by like 10x , I felt nauseous, dizzy all of it.

And I’ve had these weird moments where I feel almost dissociated - like I’ll be in a room and suddenly not know what’s up/down, where the door is or was, which way everything is oriented. I don’t know how else to explain it. A bit like being stoned but not in a good way. It doesn’t last long but it’s unsettling and much worse if I have coffee or sugar.

And then there’s doing really weird things like pouring water from the kettle into my cereal instead of my mug, or today getting food at the cafeteria and walking straight out without paying…eek.

I don’t know if these things are related to the LDN or my high levels of stress, the pain impacting my cognition (severe cervical stenosis and cervical instability), or early onset dementia or what the heck is going on? I am not going to go back down I think I need to give myself the chance of getting to 4.5 because the pain hasn’t been impacted at all yet.
