I'm approaching overwhelming pain again and am concerned people will become enraged at me. I don't know how to get permission to rest. I've spending hours resting in the shower from myofascial tension and am chanting oṃ maṇi padme hūm.

You have my permission to rest as long as you need to. If anybody's got a problem with that, you can tell them that I said they can talk to me about it. I'll straighten em out. You take as long as you need.

    I'm struggling with access to food to be able to rest currently & over the past five or so years. My legs, stomach, & chest were having severe cramps, to where I was unable to stand/move for much of the day and was screaming in pain a lot. Though, currently it's subsided to where I can respond to this. My life-partner's also recovering from a physical injury after getting hit by a car on his bike, and has schizoaffective PTSD; this is stressful & challenging for him too, though he's been helping. I'm drinking lots of water, though need to go back in the shower now. It's challenging trying to convince people that I'm injured and the severity, even having gone to a doctors for help.
