I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's 15 years ago. 13 years ago we discovered a small cancerous tumor on my thyroid and had it removed. I eat gluten free, take Armour Thyroid (mostly because I never felt good while on Synthroid/Levothyroxine) and I take supplements that help support my gut, liver and kidneys. I am human-sometimes I fall off the wagon of consistency with supplements, but when I feel my Hashimoto's starting to flare I go back on this regimen and it helps to calm everything down. In addition to supplements I practice hot yoga (the best detox IMO), practice diaphragmatic breathing to calm my Vagus nerve, use a rebounder periodically for lymphatic drainage and I have accupuncture one per month. It's frustrating to have to figure all of this out on my own, and it's not cheap, but there is nothing worse than feeling crappy and nothing better than feeling good so I do what I can to control what I can control

The neurodiversity runs deep in my immediate and extended family. From ADHD to autism and sensory processing disorder, I've learned to navigate the sometimes wild world of living with my own and parenting other brains that experience the world differently from neurotypical folks.

But being neurodiverse can also have a set of challenges. Here are some of my favorite tools that I've discovered and used along the way to help me on my journey. (Note: this list contains affiliate links, which means that if you purchase an item from my link, I'll receive a small commission at no extra expense to you.)

PLEASE READ: Everything in this list is not to be taken as medical advice. I am simply showing what things have helped me with my LC symptoms. If you come across something that you think might help, please speak with a licensed medical professional about it. That being said, I'll share a little bit of my history. My post-COVID issues started in January 2021. Today (as of June 2024), I'm about 90% recovered. The symptoms that I still have are mild fatigue and slight sensitivity to touching certain things. I had a lot of other symptoms (chest pain, SOB, air hunger, heart palpitations, etc.) in the past that eventually resolved on their own, so in this list, I will share some things that I did to help with certain issues. I've had little success with traditional western medicine and had a good amount of relief with integrative/functional/eastern medicine. You may notice that some of the things in this list seem rather “woo woo” or full of quackery, but I implore you to keep an open mind. I was once in that resistant mindset until I gave these things a try.
These wellness and stress-relief recommendations are all things I have either tried and benefited from or come highly recommended by top wellness and health professionals!
