can't stay away

Body: 

hey ladies,
I said I was going to stay away a bit and I have been spending much less time here, but keep getting drawn back....
So here I am-was feeling a bit better but slipping down again...arguing with my husband, still trying to figure out what is going on with my son, feeling blue and overwhelmed...oh, and so broke...
Went to PT on monday and though the therapist was very nice it was creepy...especially since I don't go to drs...she poked around in there and then did this biofeedback thing...anybody have any experience/opinion on that? I should look in the archives I guess...
sorry that many of you are feeling crappy too
well the good news is, we are getting closer to spring(at least in the northeast US)
I am looking forward to that

this is going to sound strange, but you can each be the judge of that yourselves...(it sounded strange to me too)
My friend(who I recently discovered has a prolapse) told me that a recommended therapy is to drink 3 glasses of liquids a day through a crazy straw in the center of the mouth with eyes closed. Has something to do with the round muscles. OK, now you are all going to think I am crazy! I figure it can't hurt to try!

Nothin crazy bout tryin!
I would dance naked on ice if it made things better!

I tried it (the straw, not dancing naked on ice!) and surprisingly enough, involuntary kegels! maybe my mind's playing tricks on me, but even now sitting at the keyboard, I did it again, closed my eyes and sucked in through puckered lips and felt everything lift and tighten. try it! its cool! only works if I'm not slouched over though

gonna do it again!

woohoo!
this is fun
thanks stella : )

first the straw thing...it's subtle but it happens. wowsers! but then,they say in labour to release your jaw to release the pelvis, so it is all connected...

physio. biofeedback--do you mean the electric muscle stimulation? my physio does it. i have no clue if it works, but i always feel better when i go. it feels weird but i got used to it. but mainly i find going to the physio is like going to therapy. i talk about how i feel, and she tells me how great i am doing and how i will be absolutely fine. when things were worse for a little while she kept saying it would get better (and it did). it really is therapy! and i also get to talk about my life and everything else (i told you, therapy!)
