Hey friends, I hope you enjoyed this more vulnerable video! I just wanted share something more than just a haul or thrift with me and have a more heart to heart conversation with you. ♥♥♥ I hope this gives you a better look into my life and hopefully it'll help some of you who also struggle with some sort of health problem or an on going issue in your life.
Hi Rebekah, your videos on reselling are a blessing to me, thank you for uploading them. Also thank you for talking about your health. There are so many sickness out there, sometimes our doctors don't know how to take care of them. When the doctors are limited, there is still Hope. I don't know if you're a Christian ? But there is hope in the Lord Jesus is the Healer. Here some healing scriptures in the Bible you can read and declare them upon yourself . Joel 2:32 and 1 Peter 2:24. Thank you for opening up and God bless you 🙏
Hi I'm so glad that you disclose this and I'm wondering if you would try vitamin B1 and nutritional yeast because with the autonomic nervous system, pots most patients are deficient in these two items. It's worthwhile trying. I am a nurse and I have been studying and following nutritional eating for an eye condition. And one of the things that I found very interesting is the pots diagnosis. I think if you give it two or three weeks it's worth a shot to feel better. Keep us posted, you might also consider looking at some of the RUclips videos by Dr Berg. He is a wealth of information. Good luck and we'll get you feeling better
Becca, I forgot to add that you should look up. Beri, Beri. Take a look at the symptoms and they're tied to vitamin B1 deficiency which so many people have vitamin B1 is also known as thiamine. Good luck keep us posted. The long story short, we all have something and in this form we should be able to help you out
@@christellebams1176 Thank you so much, friend. Yes, I am a strong Christian, and I believe in the God who Heals! Thank you for the encouraging verses too! I appreciate you so much.
@@amyk3020 Oooooh! I so appreciate your insight as a medical professional!! I'm definitely open to trying out some supplements! I'm going to go and order some B1 right now! Thank you, friend!
I am 28 and got diagnosed with POTS/dysautomia 3 years ago. I had to leave my corporate job and spend a year In bed. I watched a lot of youtube to pass the time and somehow discovered reselling. At first I was only flipping things I could purchase online since I couldn't drive/stand at the thrift. Now I am able to drive to thrifts on my good days and am so grateful for the days that my body allows me to go to the bins. Struggling through an invisible illness really makes all tthe small wins that much better. I am so thankful to have found reselling so I can continue to support myself on my own schedule/terms. What a blessing! Thanks for sharing your story! I always wondered how many other POTsies were out there with me.
I completely understand. I have epilepsy, migraines and very anemic. Epilepsy affects my quality of life because even tho I haven't had seizures in a long time I can't drive so uber and Lyft take a huge chunk of my paycheck, no fun when your hours get cut but they still want you to work 5 days a week. Because of migraines I call out A LOT. After work and the day after I'm exhausted so there is very little energy for reselling. I want to take it full time so I don't have to constantly worry about losing my job because I have to call out or being late because there aren't any uber/lyft rides available. I'm tired of working for people especially because my health isn't the best. It would be great to be able to earn enough from reselling so when I'm not feeling well I can take that day off and not worry about job security and income. I'll get there
It’s a bummer that the algorithm doesn’t like it when you go off topic but I appreciate you sharing a health issue that is not wildly known. Keep up the positive thinking, the last thing we can loose when life is hard is hope.
You are such a blessing to share your story and encourage others ❤️❤️ I’m sorry for the struggle you go through. I’m glad you are an Overcomer and are thankful for the things your body can do. That’s such a great way to look at it! I’ll be praying for healing of your illness 🙏🙏 Reselling is such a blessing. I know we all have our barriers and struggles, but getting to do it at home and at the pace we need is so good 👏
Awww, thank you so much sweet friend! And thank you for the prayers! They mean the world to me! AGREED. Reselling and being able to work from home has been life-changing for me!
I have cluster headaches and am even stepping back from RUclips right now because of it. In the past 40 days I have had a terrible attack I haven’t felt with in years. Chronic illnesses are so hard to explain when they are unseen on the public front.
Since you asked... I know you already kind of know all of this but I have had to change my eating habits a lot do to my health. I have Gerd, Barets, Nash Syndrome, off and on Anemia (as of right now it's under control and I do not need iron pills but I have been known to have to go back to them after a bit so...), and things related to my ADHD. I also learned recently that a lot of these gut health issues are really common in the Autism community and as some may not know in your community I have Aspergers syndrome which is an ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder (I HATE the word disorder)). I also deal with sleep apnea which I am getting help for. I know a lot of these problems are caused by my weight and I can reverse them by getting my weight down so I have been actively working on changing what I am eating as well as how much I am eating. The other ones I sadly won't be able to reverse them because the damage is already done and even with losing the weight they will not be reversed or changed. I am so proud of you Cuzzy for talking about this all. I know I am late to watching this video, but I had it on my list for awhile and I am so happy I got to see it. I love you so very much. You already know this because I am pretty sure I have already told you all of this but you are my role model and one of my best friends. Can't wait to see you in a couple of days. Thank you for sharing and you are awesome and not just because I am your cousin and I say so.
I’m right there with you. I’ve had so many health issues since I was born- asthma, allergies, chronic daily migraine, epilepsy and on and on. I manage to make it through. Went on and got my doctorate degree in pharmacy and I’m now a FT pharmacist and PT reseller. Anyone can do anything they put their mind to! Thanks for the inspiration!
Thank you so much for sharing, and opening up about your Invisible Illness. I have a history of cancer (7 years remission this March), Lyme Disease (remission for almost 2 years), on top of other health issues that have come up from side effects from the cancer treatments. Having held a few jobs since then, wanting to start reselling (again, having "failed" the first time) and do it full time, seems possible but daunting at the same time. Hearing your story, and others who have also struggled with something similar gives me more encouragement and hope that I CAN do it! Currently, I am seeing a WONDERFUL doctor who has helped me through so much (hypothyroidism, stomach issues/IBS-like, concussion, Lyme, and POTS - which was found to do with something with my heart health, and naturally low bp) and I couldn't be anything but grateful! There is hope for those who are going through health issues (no matter how major or minor). Again, thank you for sharing your story, and the journey you have gone through to get to today. We only see what people choose to show on YT/Social Media, and it isn't always greener on the other side. You never know the person's full story, only what they choose to share!
Thank you for sharing. I have SLE Lupus. I went from working 60+ hours week bookkeeping to 25. I’ve just started reselling again (part time) and I really enjoy it. Soon I will be reselling full time and can’t wait!
Ahhhhh! That’s so exciting, friend!! I’m sorry for what you have had to face, but from how it sounds, hopefully you’ll be an overall healthier and happier person if you’re not working so many hours! ❤️ I’m excited for you and for your reselling business!!
This is the mother in me...do you have a medical alert bracelet or necklace that states your illness? That way people will know how to deal with you if you have an incident at the bins or elsewhere. Maybe name the illness and tell them to call 911 to find out how to treat you. I have a 36 yo son who has had type 1 diabetes since he was seven. These illnesses aren't walks in the park. I wish you all the best.
I don’t have a medical bracelet, but I’m going to get one! You and so many other wonderful people suggested I do, and it seems like a smart idea! Thank you for your insight!
My daughter has serious medical issues and being a single mother I cannot work a "normal job". So reselling definitely helps. Also, a good friend of mine was also diagnosed with pots. She would be doing great and functioning like normal then in a split second she'd be down. It's pretty scary. Good for you for powering through it all but don't push yourself too hard ❤️
Wow, thank you so much for making this video and sharing about your health. It is hard to talk and share about chronic illness especially online where I feel like people mostly just see the best version of you. Reselling is a great job for those with chronic illness! I love that I can take care of myself when I have a flare up and pivot my day to accommodate my health. I have hypothyroidism, scoliosis, and flare ups of my IBS occasionally. All my health conditions flared up post c*vid and I have felt sooo sick I had to really ease back for a while to slowly recover. I was never able to fully take care of myself in past jobs- I could take one or two days off then would just have to suffer though the work day then go home and crash to just wake up and do it all over again. I do not miss that one bit! Ugh Beka, I hope you feel better soon and you’re able to better manage your symptoms again like before. Thanks for being so real and sharing your journey!
Oh Chelsea, I am so sorry, and I completely understand! From almost having Cystic Fibrosis, to Asthma, IBS, Autonomic Dysfunction, and back pain, I’ve been all over the map. And I’m so grateful that we’re both able to work for ourselves now, and don’t have to do the daily pain in a normal job grind. ❤️
I hope my reselling business will soon be able to.pay for my bills. Being ill and working for other people aka companies is really tough and at times soul sucking. If I can work for myself then I won't have to call out so much and being scared of losing my job.
I’m sorry to hear you are going through this. I have hashimotos hypothyroidism and most days I struggle to have the energy to do what I want to do as a reseller. It’s discouraging and overwhelming at times but I try to stay positive and keep pushing through and am thankful for what I can do👍Thanks so much for sharing your story❤️
Thank you for sharing your story, I'm actually a full-time reseller & I've changed my careers due to my autoimmune disorder I've had, where my own body attacks me. I found out I had this 4 years ago and was hospitalized and devastated. It's nice to know that I'm not alone and we're all together on this journey. Thank you for sharing such a heart-to-heart with us
That's the hard part of having a hidden illness. You look normal but your body is a mess inside. I hope to soon be able to only work for myself because it's hard to put double the effort for a job and it not be fulfilling
Oh wow. I hate knowing that your body attacks itself; and I’m so sorry that you have to face that battle. We definitely are never alone. Amen! Let’s fight for this life together. ❤️ Dang, I’m tearing up a little bit. 🙈😭
Thank you for sharing your story with us - it must be incredibly scary at times. Reselling/YouTubing certainly is a blessing, and it's great that you're also reflecting on it. Reselling is so good for people who need the flexibility 🙌🙌
Bless your ❤️! Thank you for sharing. I had a bad car accident that put me in the hospital for a month when I was 18. Thank goodness I was young enough that my body was able to heal. Not saying that I don't have permanent damage but it could have been worse. As I have aged since I was 18 my back has lots of issues and now my spine is a C curve from my injuries. And the weight my goodness I put on a lot of weight. I am a really anxious person and yes I'm medicated but I just start eating. The bad part is I don't even realize I do it. I always feel like I break one habit and start another. I really love reselling I'm just trying to find a niche I like to do. I'm trying clothes but I'm not very good with wording but I love selling makeup or general merchandise so I may lean towards that. I still love your content and maybe one day start a you tube channel.
Wow . I am dealing with migraines since I was 19 years old. When I was in my middle 30’s I found out that I had GERD and fibromyalgia. At first my fibromyalgia was not bad but when I had my fourth kid my fibromyalgia got so much worse plus I developed high blood pressure as well and I have allergies to pretty much everything outside to the point where I had to move from Florida to Wisconsin to Indiana. My allergies caused me to have sinus infections plus migraines all the once I become nineteen years old . I also am visually and hearing impairment too plus I have IBS-C . I right now is in a very bad flare up that is lasting two months now with no end at sight . Most meds don’t work on me .
Hey Rebekah! I'm so grateful for all your videos, but most especially this one!!! I've heard of POTS! Hats off to you and everyone else who has it and has navigated through this world with such a huge obstacle! I think all the people I know with POTS have dogs who are trained to sense when an episode is coming on and actually warns them to make sure their companion is lying down. Do you always have a giant water bottle with you? I heard you get super dehydrated before or after an episode. I feel like we've lived VERY similar lives, although I don't have POTS. I've been sick my whole life as well and have multiple diseases, syndromes, including autoimmune ones. Like yours, my conditions are invisible...until of course an episode happens. Haha. Some of mine are fibromyalgia, chronic vertigo, Graves Disease and diverticulitis. I started reselling because it seemed like the perfect job for me. Something I could do at my own pace, set my own goals, and also just literally start with whatever I already have at home! Also, reselling, especially on Poshmark, is just so nice because of the incredibly supportive community. The total opposite from my previous life in the corporate world...which of course made all my conditions way worse!
Thank you for sharing. I also have POTS, and there is so much of what you said that I want to comment on but this would be very long, so I chose one thing. I started watching youtubers when I was stuck at home all day by myself, because I couldn't move much or go places. And I found a few youtubers, basically in the fashion genre who had nice calming voices, calming presences and probably a sincerity that shined through. It was sort of like I had someone with me talking to me about mindless things like clothes, that didn't require me to respond back, entertain or fully pay attention to. Because I couldn't do any of those things at that time. I also don't want people around me when I am feeling horrible, I want to do what I need to to feel comfortable without observation and feeling the need to explain. Let me rest, but I still want to hear people. And this is why I started watching your channel, I get that feeling of calm, sincerity and engaged without draining me. So Also, thank you for this. And never feel like it is something taboo, or any other reason to hide. For so many people, they had no context to understand. They knew having a cold and mainly older people who had cancer. And not understanding factors into making it uncomfortable for them. While acting like asking "How are you?" is small talk. I first picked up on it making people uncomfortable when my response was not positive and then noticed the negative effect making people comfortable with my responses was having on me. So I put my comfort first and think people need to not ask a question they can't handle the answer to. Also, Long Covid has finally given some context.
Wow. That is such a powerful story, Gail. I’m glad you were able to find comfort while being sick in bed. And my heart goes out to you. And yes, people often don’t want real answers, but I say we give them the real answers anyway. What’s life if we have to downplay ourselves?
@@RebekahAllison I wish you luck in figuring out how to make everything work. I know how annoying unsolicited advice is, but I am always happy to share what has worked for me or just listen. It can be isolating also in the mental aspect when you are the only one you know dealing with a condition, and their lack of comprehension can turn into yours as well as self disbelief.
I enjoyed seeing you be so brave to tell your story. I have a few autoimmune diseases and I understand what you have to go through at times. Prayers you feel better.
My sympathies. I have an autoimmune condition and associated malaise. I am forced to work a corporate job and do reselling to support my family. You are doing well!
Thanks Rebecca, I have chronic lyme disease and it can get really bad like yours does, other times just inconvenient, know that there are others lifting you up and making this business work......at at our own pace
I did not know this about you! Thanks for sharing! I love you dearly & hope you are feeling well! I'm sure your post will help & encourage your followers! Your heart is always thinking of others & it's one of your many great qualities! Everyone, follow this lady!!!
Thank you for opening up and sharing your own journey with a chronic illness. You are a warrior! Every person who suffers daily with a condition like yours is. Thank you for making great content and being one of my favorite RUclips resellers to watch. I also have an chronic condition, psoriatic arthritis. To look at me most people would think I’m fine. My body is riddled with arthritis and I’m constantly in pain. I just keep moving and doing my very best. Sending you prayers and hugs from NJ
My Bff has psoriatic arthritis and I have been on this journey with her. The pain she has is awful and I just try to support and love on her as much as i can
Awww, thank you for sharing Jennifer! You are incredibly sweet, and I cannot imagine the pain you must be in constantly. I hate that invisible illnesses make people feel like we’re fine when we’re not. Sending you prayers and hugs from MD. ❤️
I agree with Rebekah, that is so sweet of you! Having a good support system is so important, and I know your best friend appreciates your love and support.
Thank you so much for sharing. You are an amazing person. You are an inspiration to many of us. I have a chronic illness but have learned how to live my life to the fullest with it as you do. Sometimes you just have to sit one out and that's okay. I have not missed one of your videos. You have taught me a lot about the reselling business. Now you have shown us your profound strength in your ability to trust and share yourself with us. Thank you again. Stay safe. Hugs. Lynn in 🇨🇦.
😭😭😭 Oh my word. You touched my heart, friend. Thank you so much for your sweet words and kindness. Something I have made a priority in my life is what I like to call “radical vulnerability” and I’m hoping that this platform gives me an opportunity to do just that. ❤️ Thank you for your support and for watching my videos! (Even if it means you’ve seen my cringy beginning ones! Haha
Thank you so much for sharing more of your story with us. I am a full time reseller and have been struggling with chronic cluster migraines since elementary school. This is the best job I have ever had to have the freedom to take a hour or 2 and get things to a manageable place and then get back at it. It's always nice to know we are not alone in this.
Amen! My husband has had severe migraines for most of his life, and was hospitalized and homeschooled due to them as well. So I definitely understand how debilitating that particular pain is, and my heart goes out to you. YES! The freedom with reselling is unbeatable. And we definitely are never alone. ❤️
Thank you so much for sharing :-) In addition to having a full-time job, I'm also a part-time reseller, and suffer with a few health ailments (fibromyalgia, endometriosis, heart valve issues, etc.). I don't have a lot of energy and often feel like I'm running on fumes, but my faith in God has been getting me through each day.
Oh wow! You are so strong to be able to do all of that! Wow. I love that you give the credit to God; He really is the reason we’re able to do anything at all. ❤️
I am familiar with POTS as my daughter has this condition too. It's very scary because she works in health care and has her episodes. We have a genetic condition called Edhlers Danlos Syndrome. Because of the pain it has caused me to have Fibromyalgia and I have chronic costochondritis . I had to leave a job to resell, which I knew I had to since I was on FBLA and my condition doesn't go away. I sometimes feel because people can't physically see my condition and I'm in pain 24 hours they like to think it must be nice not to wake up early for work. But I have numerous specialist and I'm usually bed ridden . It has been very challenging for me to resell especially because I go live on fb . I'm glad for the other platforms I list on but it's a struggle because I have chronic fatigue and insomnia. I just pray that I have betters days since everything came so quickly for my health. You have always been a inspiration 🥰
Oh wow, Tiffany. Yes, I totally understand about your daughter! My mom freaks out about me all of the time, so I can only imagine that it’s so scary for you too. And wow; what a journey you have been on. People truly do not understand dhow draining chronic illnesses are, or that they can be horrible even if you can’t see them. My heart goes out to you, and I’m praying that you feel better, so so soon. I know that miracles happen every day, and I’m believing in one for you. ❤️ You are not alone.
Thank you for making this video. You are a good role model of someone managing their illness while maintaining a full and fulfilling life. I have Multiple Sclerosis and have good days and bad days. It’s good to be forgiving of yourself those days when you can’t do everything you want.
Amen! Awwww, you are so sweet and kind! 😭 I try my very best to live life to the full! I totally understand that roller coaster of feeling bad and good. And I dearly hope that you have more good than bad days. My heart goes out to you. ❤️
I have pots too. This is so relieving hearing someone else who has it. I feel lightheaded all of the time and my heartrate is crazy fast sometimes. It makes it hard to source sometimes because I feel weak alot. I’m 26 too.
Yes! I completely understand! I’m always lightheaded too! YES! Sourcing can be really difficult at times. I get weird heart palpitations sometimes too. Ugh! Well, we’re in this together friend! ❤️
Thank you for this video. I’ve been watching your videos since I began my own reselling journey last year. Though very different from yours, I also have a chronic illness (ulcerative colitis) and have wondered at times how much easier it must be for people who don’t have health issues and how much more successful they must be. This is actually inspiring for me 💞
Oh Bruppie, you are so sweet. I always get excited when I see your comments, and I completely understand that wondering about how well others are doing or if I could do more and be better if I felt better! I’m happy to have you here, friend. ❤️
Thank You For Sharing 🥰💜 It's Truly An Important Message. It's Okay To Not Be Okay. We All Have Things We're Trying To Overcome That May Be Perceived As Weak Or Shameful. It's Important To Remember We Are Not Alone & Our Story Will Always Encourage & Uplift Someone To Overcome 🙌🏼 Sending Love ❤️ Light ✨️ & Healing
Thanks so much for this heart to heart, Rebekah! You're so strong and positive, I really appreciate you. I sometimes have arthritis pain in my right shoulder so sourcing at the bins and moving mountains of clothes can aggravate it. BUT i do think reselling is actually good for us because it is physical and we don't only sit at our desks all day. I find the best way to help my arthritis is to cut down on my carbs and sugar because that causes inflammation in me. Thanks for sharing, and hoping you continue to feel better! ❤
Awww, thank you Dana! You are so sweet! Oh my word, so understandable! I can’t imagine having to move all of the clothes I do if I had pain in my shoulder (especially that right shoulder, oh my word!). You are so strong, friend. I’m going to try and do some food therapy too! ❤️
thank you so much for sharing your story and history of your autonomic issues , it encouraged me too. i was wondering how you source the clothing in order to do the reselling biz? i would like to do more of reselling but moving around to go to thrift stores and do the travelling for it is going to be hard so i was wondering how you manage to do it , unless you do source your clothing online. let me know when you have a moment.
Great video..I have Lupus and Fibro along with severe back issues. The hardest thing for people with silent diseases is to take care of ourselves when need be. Thanks for sharing and take care of you🤩
Amen! Most people do not understand those of us with silent diseases, but we have to understand ourselves and take care of ourselves! Oh honey, I’m so sorry for those battles you face. I know how hard it is, and my heart goes out to you. ❤️
Thank you for sharing your story regarding your illness. Listening to your body is key, slowing down and resting when you need to. Your story shows that no matter your circumstances, you can find a way to do what you enjoy.
i have fibromyalgia and phyratic arthritis and crones desease. chronic fatuigueand chronic pain for eight years. always in pain and always tired. i also have a deseased disk. feet and back and ankles. fibro is all over body pain. i do what i can even in pain and just take lots of breaks. and i get to watch YOU. XOXOXOXO
Oh honey, I am so sorry for the battles that you have to face. I’m glad that you’re able to still do things to make yourself happy! Including watching me. 😉 Thank you for sharing!
Man this sounds like such a difficult health issue to live with, kudos to you for not giving up and sharing your story ❤️💕 and you're so brave for getting out to places like the bins! Hopefully you have someone with you to make sure you're ok 🤗
So very sorry h you have to go through this. But wow your approach is awe inspiring such extraordinary selfless act to share, to encourage others. Thank you.
Yes my exsuated is exsuated. So over this. I get the black outs too. And some times with convulsions or strobg shaking. Yes I pass out. And can't ride the rides at amusement park that flip you. I miss the whole ride from black outs/pass outs.
It really does! It’s an interesting diagnosis, and it definitely comes out of nowhere. I hope that she’s been able to manage her symptoms well! In my experience it comes and goes in waves, so I’m hoping that she’s doing well! ❤️
My daughter has pots she’s 14. It’s been a struggle even though she doesn’t faint often. She wants to go to the bins with me, but I get nervous for her. How do you survive going?
Awww, I feel for her! That’s a great question! I bring my water bottle with me, and I always have salty snacks on me. So I like to chug water before going in (raises my blood pressure and increases blood volume) and then every few hours I’ll eat something salty to help raise my blood pressure too. If she can feel her symptoms coming on, then I would say that she should be able to go! But if she isn’t super aware yet, then maybe have her sit in the car for a rest after a bit of time digging. ❤️
@@RebekahAllison thanks for your response. I didn’t really think of taking breaks, I think because I get in the zone while I’m there lol. She does feel her symptoms for the most part but sometimes it sneaks up on her. It’s definitely a life adjustment.
@@RebekahAllison thank you sweetie! Living with grace and just swimming. :) yes! Reselling full-time but I work part time in the hospital.I used to work in nursing but my back and my hips can’t handle it no more but I certainly love thrifting and making it into a job.
Thanks for sharing your life situation . Always try to stay positive. Please wear a medical bracelet! Is your dog, sorry don ´t remember to write his name correct, a service dog? I still believe he is cute, helpful and helps to stay you calm, with him you are never alone. You are such a brave, nice and friendly person, what a pity you have to go through! I wish you all the best. It is day after day, no rush, just in your time. It is your life and you are the boss! :- )
Oh my word, you are so sweet! No, Otis isn’t a service dog, but I definitely have thought about getting him training to become one. If not for me, I think he would make an excellent support animal to take into nursing homes and hospitals! I definitely am taking my job one day at a time, and I am SO grateful for the support that I have from my family, and from friends like you.
A really vivid memory I have is of you sitting in front of me while they were doing the tilt table test and freaking out when I started to pass out! And then the strawberry shake at Burger King afterward. 👍🏼
Hey friends, I hope you enjoyed this more vulnerable video! I just wanted share something more than just a haul or thrift with me and have a more heart to heart conversation with you. ♥♥♥ I hope this gives you a better look into my life and hopefully it'll help some of you who also struggle with some sort of health problem or an on going issue in your life.
Hi Rebekah, your videos on reselling are a blessing to me, thank you for uploading them. Also thank you for talking about your health. There are so many sickness out there, sometimes our doctors don't know how to take care of them. When the doctors are limited, there is still Hope. I don't know if you're a Christian ? But there is hope in the Lord Jesus is the Healer. Here some healing scriptures in the Bible you can read and declare them upon yourself . Joel 2:32 and 1 Peter 2:24.

@@amyk3020 Oooooh! I so appreciate your insight as a medical professional!! I'm definitely open to trying out some supplements! I'm going to go and order some B1 right now! Thank you, friend!
I am 28 and got diagnosed with POTS/dysautomia 3 years ago. I had to leave my corporate job and spend a year In bed. I watched a lot of youtube to pass the time and somehow discovered reselling. At first I was only flipping things I could purchase online since I couldn't drive/stand at the thrift. Now I am able to drive to thrifts on my good days and am so grateful for the days that my body allows me to go to the bins. Struggling through an invisible illness really makes all tthe small wins that much better. I am so thankful to have found reselling so I can continue to support myself on my own schedule/terms. What a blessing!
Thanks for sharing your story! I always wondered how many other POTsies were out there with me.
I completely understand. I have epilepsy, migraines and very anemic. Epilepsy affects my quality of life because even tho I haven't had seizures in a long time I can't drive so uber and Lyft take a huge chunk of my paycheck, no fun when your hours get cut but they still want you to work 5 days a week. Because of migraines I call out A LOT. After work and the day after I'm exhausted so there is very little energy for reselling. I want to take it full time so I don't have to constantly worry about losing my job because I have to call out or being late because there aren't any uber/lyft rides available. I'm tired of working for people especially because my health isn't the best. It would be great to be able to earn enough from reselling so when I'm not feeling well I can take that day off and not worry about job security and income. I'll get there
It’s a bummer that the algorithm doesn’t like it when you go off topic but I appreciate you sharing a health issue that is not wildly known. Keep up the positive thinking, the last thing we can loose when life is hard is hope.
So true! RUclips is weird sometimes, haha. Thank you for the support and kind words; yes, I will never give up hope! ❤️
You are such a blessing to share your story and encourage others ❤️❤️
I’m sorry for the struggle you go through. I’m glad you are an Overcomer and are thankful for the things your body can do. That’s such a great way to look at it! I’ll be praying for healing of your illness 🙏🙏
Reselling is such a blessing. I know we all have our barriers and struggles, but getting to do it at home and at the pace we need is so good 👏
Awww, thank you so much sweet friend! And thank you for the prayers! They mean the world to me! AGREED. Reselling and being able to work from home has been life-changing for me!
I have cluster headaches and am even stepping back from RUclips right now because of it. In the past 40 days I have had a terrible attack I haven’t felt with in years. Chronic illnesses are so hard to explain when they are unseen on the public front.
Since you asked... I know you already kind of know all of this but I have had to change my eating habits a lot do to my health. I have Gerd, Barets, Nash Syndrome, off and on Anemia (as of right now it's under control and I do not need iron pills but I have been known to have to go back to them after a bit so...), and things related to my ADHD. I also learned recently that a lot of these gut health issues are really common in the Autism community and as some may not know in your community I have Aspergers syndrome which is an ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder (I HATE the word disorder)). I also deal with sleep apnea which I am getting help for. I know a lot of these problems are caused by my weight and I can reverse them by getting my weight down so I have been actively working on changing what I am eating as well as how much I am eating. The other ones I sadly won't be able to reverse them because the damage is already done and even with losing the weight they will not be reversed or changed. I am so proud of you Cuzzy for talking about this all. I know I am late to watching this video, but I had it on my list for awhile and I am so happy I got to see it. I love you so very much. You already know this because I am pretty sure I have already told you all of this but you are my role model and one of my best friends. Can't wait to see you in a couple of days. Thank you for sharing and you are awesome and not just because I am your cousin and I say so.
I’m right there with you. I’ve had so many health issues since I was born- asthma, allergies, chronic daily migraine, epilepsy and on and on. I manage to make it through. Went on and got my doctorate degree in pharmacy and I’m now a FT pharmacist and PT reseller. Anyone can do anything they put their mind to! Thanks for the inspiration!
Thank you so much for sharing, and opening up about your Invisible Illness. I have a history of cancer (7 years remission this March), Lyme Disease (remission for almost 2 years), on top of other health issues that have come up from side effects from the cancer treatments. Having held a few jobs since then, wanting to start reselling (again, having "failed" the first time) and do it full time, seems possible but daunting at the same time. Hearing your story, and others who have also struggled with something similar gives me more encouragement and hope that I CAN do it!
Currently, I am seeing a WONDERFUL doctor who has helped me through so much (hypothyroidism, stomach issues/IBS-like, concussion, Lyme, and POTS - which was found to do with something with my heart health, and naturally low bp) and I couldn't be anything but grateful! There is hope for those who are going through health issues (no matter how major or minor).
Again, thank you for sharing your story, and the journey you have gone through to get to today. We only see what people choose to show on YT/Social Media, and it isn't always greener on the other side. You never know the person's full story, only what they choose to share!
Thank you for sharing. I have SLE Lupus. I went from working 60+ hours week bookkeeping to 25. I’ve just started reselling again (part time) and I really enjoy it. Soon I will be reselling full time and can’t wait!
Ahhhhh! That’s so exciting, friend!! I’m sorry for what you have had to face, but from how it sounds, hopefully you’ll be an overall healthier and happier person if you’re not working so many hours! ❤️ I’m excited for you and for your reselling business!!
This is the mother in me...do you have a medical alert bracelet or necklace that states your illness? That way people will know how to deal with you if you have an incident at the bins or elsewhere. Maybe name the illness and tell them to call 911 to find out how to treat you. I have a 36 yo son who has had type 1 diabetes since he was seven. These illnesses aren't walks in the park. I wish you all the best.
I don’t have a medical bracelet, but I’m going to get one! You and so many other wonderful people suggested I do, and it seems like a smart idea! Thank you for your insight!
My daughter has serious medical issues and being a single mother I cannot work a "normal job". So reselling definitely helps. Also, a good friend of mine was also diagnosed with pots. She would be doing great and functioning like normal then in a split second she'd be down. It's pretty scary. Good for you for powering through it all but don't push yourself too hard ❤️
Wow, thank you so much for making this video and sharing about your health. It is hard to talk and share about chronic illness especially online where I feel like people mostly just see the best version of you. Reselling is a great job for those with chronic illness! I love that I can take care of myself when I have a flare up and pivot my day to accommodate my health. I have hypothyroidism, scoliosis, and flare ups of my IBS occasionally. All my health conditions flared up post c*vid and I have felt sooo sick I had to really ease back for a while to slowly recover. I was never able to fully take care of myself in past jobs- I could take one or two days off then would just have to suffer though the work day then go home and crash to just wake up and do it all over again. I do not miss that one bit! Ugh Beka, I hope you feel better soon and you’re able to better manage your symptoms again like before. Thanks for being so real and sharing your journey!
Oh Chelsea, I am so sorry, and I completely understand! From almost having Cystic Fibrosis, to Asthma, IBS, Autonomic Dysfunction, and back pain, I’ve been all over the map. And I’m so grateful that we’re both able to work for ourselves now, and don’t have to do the daily pain in a normal job grind. ❤️
I hope my reselling business will soon be able to.pay for my bills. Being ill and working for other people aka companies is really tough and at times soul sucking. If I can work for myself then I won't have to call out so much and being scared of losing my job.
I’m sorry to hear you are going through this. I have hashimotos hypothyroidism and most days I struggle to have the energy to do what I want to do as a reseller. It’s discouraging and overwhelming at times but I try to stay positive and keep pushing through and am thankful for what I can do👍Thanks so much for sharing your story❤️
I completely understand that struggle for energy. I know how discouraging it can be. ❤️ You’re so welcome. And I’m grateful to have you here.
Thank you for sharing your story, I'm actually a full-time reseller & I've changed my careers due to my autoimmune disorder I've had, where my own body attacks me. I found out I had this 4 years ago and was hospitalized and devastated. It's nice to know that I'm not alone and we're all together on this journey. Thank you for sharing such a heart-to-heart with us
That's the hard part of having a hidden illness. You look normal but your body is a mess inside. I hope to soon be able to only work for myself because it's hard to put double the effort for a job and it not be fulfilling
Oh wow. I hate knowing that your body attacks itself; and I’m so sorry that you have to face that battle. We definitely are never alone. Amen! Let’s fight for this life together. ❤️ Dang, I’m tearing up a little bit. 🙈😭
Yes, having a hidden illness is pretty hard to have other understand. ❤️
❤️❤️❤️
I’m so glad you are able to share and get support for your health issues !! We all need support and understanding!!
Thank you for sharing your story with us - it must be incredibly scary at times. Reselling/YouTubing certainly is a blessing, and it's great that you're also reflecting on it. Reselling is so good for people who need the flexibility 🙌🙌
Bless your ❤️! Thank you for sharing. I had a bad car accident that put me in the hospital for a month when I was 18. Thank goodness I was young enough that my body was able to heal. Not saying that I don't have permanent damage but it could have been worse. As I have aged since I was 18 my back has lots of issues and now my spine is a C curve from my injuries. And the weight my goodness I put on a lot of weight. I am a really anxious person and yes I'm medicated but I just start eating. The bad part is I don't even realize I do it. I always feel like I break one habit and start another. I really love reselling I'm just trying to find a niche I like to do. I'm trying clothes but I'm not very good with wording but I love selling makeup or general merchandise so I may lean towards that. I still love your content and maybe one day start a you tube channel.
Wow . I am dealing with migraines since I was 19 years old. When I was in my middle 30’s I found out that I had GERD and fibromyalgia. At first my fibromyalgia was not bad but when I had my fourth kid my fibromyalgia got so much worse plus I developed high blood pressure as well and I have allergies to pretty much everything outside to the point where I had to move from Florida to Wisconsin to Indiana. My allergies caused me to have sinus infections plus migraines all the once I become nineteen years old . I also am visually and hearing impairment too plus I have IBS-C . I right now is in a very bad flare up that is lasting two months now with no end at sight . Most meds don’t work on me .
You are full of energy and good vibes. We love you
😭😭😭 You are so sweet! 😭😭😭
Hey Rebekah! I'm so grateful for all your videos, but most especially this one!!! I've heard of POTS! Hats off to you and everyone else who has it and has navigated through this world with such a huge obstacle! I think all the people I know with POTS have dogs who are trained to sense when an episode is coming on and actually warns them to make sure their companion is lying down. Do you always have a giant water bottle with you? I heard you get super dehydrated before or after an episode.
I feel like we've lived VERY similar lives, although I don't have POTS. I've been sick my whole life as well and have multiple diseases, syndromes, including autoimmune ones. Like yours, my conditions are invisible...until of course an episode happens. Haha. Some of mine are fibromyalgia, chronic vertigo, Graves Disease and diverticulitis. I started reselling because it seemed like the perfect job for me. Something I could do at my own pace, set my own goals, and also just literally start with whatever I already have at home! Also, reselling, especially on Poshmark, is just so nice because of the incredibly supportive community. The total opposite from my previous life in the corporate world...which of course made all my conditions way worse!
Thank you for sharing. I also have POTS, and there is so much of what you said that I want to comment on but this would be very long, so I chose one thing. I started watching youtubers when I was stuck at home all day by myself, because I couldn't move much or go places. And I found a few youtubers, basically in the fashion genre who had nice calming voices, calming presences and probably a sincerity that shined through. It was sort of like I had someone with me talking to me about mindless things like clothes, that didn't require me to respond back, entertain or fully pay attention to. Because I couldn't do any of those things at that time. I also don't want people around me when I am feeling horrible, I want to do what I need to to feel comfortable without observation and feeling the need to explain. Let me rest, but I still want to hear people. And this is why I started watching your channel, I get that feeling of calm, sincerity and engaged without draining me. So Also, thank you for this.
And never feel like it is something taboo, or any other reason to hide. For so many people, they had no context to understand. They knew having a cold and mainly older people who had cancer. And not understanding factors into making it uncomfortable for them. While acting like asking "How are you?" is small talk. I first picked up on it making people uncomfortable when my response was not positive and then noticed the negative effect making people comfortable with my responses was having on me. So I put my comfort first and think people need to not ask a question they can't handle the answer to. Also, Long Covid has finally given some context.
Wow. That is such a powerful story, Gail. I’m glad you were able to find comfort while being sick in bed. And my heart goes out to you.
And yes, people often don’t want real answers, but I say we give them the real answers anyway. What’s life if we have to downplay ourselves?
@@RebekahAllison I wish you luck in figuring out how to make everything work. I know how annoying unsolicited advice is, but I am always happy to share what has worked for me or just listen. It can be isolating also in the mental aspect when you are the only one you know dealing with a condition, and their lack of comprehension can turn into yours as well as self disbelief.
I enjoyed seeing you be so brave to tell your story. I have a few autoimmune diseases and I understand what you have to go through at times. Prayers you feel better.
My sympathies. I have an autoimmune condition and associated malaise. I am forced to work a corporate job and do reselling to support my family. You are doing well!
Thanks Rebecca, I have chronic lyme disease and it can get really bad like yours does, other times just inconvenient, know that there are others lifting you up and making this business work......at at our own pace
I did not know this about you! Thanks for sharing! I love you dearly & hope you are feeling well! I'm sure your post will help & encourage your followers! Your heart is always thinking of others & it's one of your many great qualities! Everyone, follow this lady!!!
I’m so sorry you’re having to go through this. You are in my prayers and I pray the Lord will heal you. That you will start feeling much better! 💕
Thank you for opening up and sharing your own journey with a chronic illness. You are a warrior! Every person who suffers daily with a condition like yours is. Thank you for making great content and being one of my favorite RUclips resellers to watch. I also have an chronic condition, psoriatic arthritis. To look at me most people would think I’m fine. My body is riddled with arthritis and I’m constantly in pain. I just keep moving and doing my very best. Sending you prayers and hugs from NJ
My Bff has psoriatic arthritis and I have been on this journey with her. The pain she has is awful and I just try to support and love on her as much as i can
Awww, thank you for sharing Jennifer! You are incredibly sweet, and I cannot imagine the pain you must be in constantly. I hate that invisible illnesses make people feel like we’re fine when we’re not. Sending you prayers and hugs from MD. ❤️
Oh wow. That is so sweet of you to be on that journey with her. We all deserve a best friend like you!!! ❤️
I agree with Rebekah, that is so sweet of you! Having a good support system is so important, and I know your best friend appreciates your love and support.
Thanks for being vulnerable. It makes me like you even more. You rock!
Thank you so much for sharing. You are an amazing person. You are an inspiration to many of us. I have a chronic illness but have learned how to live my life to the fullest with it as you do. Sometimes you just have to sit one out and that's okay. I have not missed one of your videos. You have taught me a lot about the reselling business. Now you have shown us your profound strength in your ability to trust and share yourself with us. Thank you again. Stay safe. Hugs. Lynn in 🇨🇦.
😭😭😭 Oh my word. You touched my heart, friend. Thank you so much for your sweet words and kindness. Something I have made a priority in my life is what I like to call “radical vulnerability” and I’m hoping that this platform gives me an opportunity to do just that. ❤️ Thank you for your support and for watching my videos! (Even if it means you’ve seen my cringy beginning ones! Haha
Thank you so much for sharing more of your story with us. I am a full time reseller and have been struggling with chronic cluster migraines since elementary school. This is the best job I have ever had to have the freedom to take a hour or 2 and get things to a manageable place and then get back at it. It's always nice to know we are not alone in this.
Amen! My husband has had severe migraines for most of his life, and was hospitalized and homeschooled due to them as well. So I definitely understand how debilitating that particular pain is, and my heart goes out to you. YES! The freedom with reselling is unbeatable. And we definitely are never alone. ❤️
much love becca!! thank you for sharing, this video was extremely encouraging💓💓💓
Thank you so much for sharing :-) In addition to having a full-time job, I'm also a part-time reseller, and suffer with a few health ailments (fibromyalgia, endometriosis, heart valve issues, etc.). I don't have a lot of energy and often feel like I'm running on fumes, but my faith in God has been getting me through each day.
Oh wow! You are so strong to be able to do all of that! Wow. I love that you give the credit to God; He really is the reason we’re able to do anything at all. ❤️
I am familiar with POTS as my daughter has this condition too. It's very scary because she works in health care and has her episodes. We have a genetic condition called Edhlers Danlos Syndrome. Because of the pain it has caused me to have Fibromyalgia and I have chronic costochondritis . I had to leave a job to resell, which I knew I had to since I was on FBLA and my condition doesn't go away. I sometimes feel because people can't physically see my condition and I'm in pain 24 hours they like to think it must be nice not to wake up early for work. But I have numerous specialist and I'm usually bed ridden . It has been very challenging for me to resell especially because I go live on fb . I'm glad for the other platforms I list on but it's a struggle because I have chronic fatigue and insomnia. I just pray that I have betters days since everything came so quickly for my health. You have always been a inspiration 🥰
Oh wow, Tiffany. Yes, I totally understand about your daughter! My mom freaks out about me all of the time, so I can only imagine that it’s so scary for you too. And wow; what a journey you have been on. People truly do not understand dhow draining chronic illnesses are, or that they can be horrible even if you can’t see them. My heart goes out to you, and I’m praying that you feel better, so so soon. I know that miracles happen every day, and I’m believing in one for you. ❤️ You are not alone.
Thank you for making this video. You are a good role model of someone managing their illness while maintaining a full and fulfilling life. I have Multiple Sclerosis and have good days and bad days. It’s good to be forgiving of yourself those days when you can’t do everything you want.
Amen! Awwww, you are so sweet and kind! 😭 I try my very best to live life to the full! I totally understand that roller coaster of feeling bad and good. And I dearly hope that you have more good than bad days. My heart goes out to you. ❤️
I have pots too. This is so relieving hearing someone else who has it. I feel lightheaded all of the time and my heartrate is crazy fast sometimes. It makes it hard to source sometimes because I feel weak alot. I’m 26 too.
Yes! I completely understand! I’m always lightheaded too! YES! Sourcing can be really difficult at times. I get weird heart palpitations sometimes too. Ugh! Well, we’re in this together friend! ❤️
Thank you for this video. I’ve been watching your videos since I began my own reselling journey last year. Though very different from yours, I also have a chronic illness (ulcerative colitis) and have wondered at times how much easier it must be for people who don’t have health issues and how much more successful they must be. This is actually inspiring for me 💞
Oh Bruppie, you are so sweet. I always get excited when I see your comments, and I completely understand that wondering about how well others are doing or if I could do more and be better if I felt better! I’m happy to have you here, friend. ❤️
Thank You For Sharing 🥰💜 It's Truly An Important Message. It's Okay To Not Be Okay. We All Have Things We're Trying To Overcome That May Be Perceived As Weak Or Shameful. It's Important To Remember We Are Not Alone & Our Story Will Always Encourage & Uplift Someone To Overcome 🙌🏼 Sending Love ❤️ Light ✨️ & Healing
Amen! It’s an important message, and I am so grateful for you for watching. Thank you for the support and kindness, friend!
Thanks for sharing. Yes, most people do struggle with something. It’s so very hard to share. You are brave and strong! Keep doing great!
Awww, thank you sweet friend! ❤️
Thanks so much for this heart to heart, Rebekah! You're so strong and positive, I really appreciate you. I sometimes have arthritis pain in my right shoulder so sourcing at the bins and moving mountains of clothes can aggravate it. BUT i do think reselling is actually good for us because it is physical and we don't only sit at our desks all day. I find the best way to help my arthritis is to cut down on my carbs and sugar because that causes inflammation in me. Thanks for sharing, and hoping you continue to feel better! ❤
Awww, thank you Dana! You are so sweet! Oh my word, so understandable! I can’t imagine having to move all of the clothes I do if I had pain in my shoulder (especially that right shoulder, oh my word!). You are so strong, friend. I’m going to try and do some food therapy too! ❤️
thank you so much for sharing your story and history of your autonomic issues , it encouraged me too. i was wondering how you source the clothing in order to do the reselling biz? i would like to do more of reselling but moving around to go to thrift stores and do the travelling for it is going to be hard so i was wondering how you manage to do it , unless you do source your clothing online. let me know when you have a moment.
You’re amazing 💖 more personal videos and I hope you find more things that help you
Great video..I have Lupus and Fibro along with severe back issues. The hardest thing for people with silent diseases is to take care of ourselves when need be. Thanks for sharing and take care of you🤩
Amen! Most people do not understand those of us with silent diseases, but we have to understand ourselves and take care of ourselves! Oh honey, I’m so sorry for those battles you face. I know how hard it is, and my heart goes out to you. ❤️
Thank you for sharing your story regarding your illness. Listening to your body is key, slowing down and resting when you need to. Your story shows that no matter your circumstances, you can find a way to do what you enjoy.
Yes!! I am always listening to my body, and I am doing what I enjoy! What a blessing!!
i have fibromyalgia and phyratic arthritis and crones desease. chronic fatuigueand chronic pain for eight years. always in pain and always tired. i also have a deseased disk. feet and back and ankles. fibro is all over body pain. i do what i can even in pain and just take lots of breaks. and i get to watch YOU. XOXOXOXO
Oh honey, I am so sorry for the battles that you have to face. I’m glad that you’re able to still do things to make yourself happy! Including watching me. 😉 Thank you for sharing!
Man this sounds like such a difficult health issue to live with, kudos to you for not giving up and sharing your story ❤️💕 and you're so brave for getting out to places like the bins! Hopefully you have someone with you to make sure you're ok 🤗
So very sorry h you have to go through this. But wow your approach is awe inspiring such extraordinary selfless act to share, to encourage others. Thank you.
You made me tear up, friend. 🙈😭 You are so sweet, and your words mean so much to me. I don’t know about all that, but I appreciate you. ❤️
Bekah, you are a precious soul. So grateful to have found you. You are in my prayers always.
Awwwwww! 😭 That is so kind of you, sweet friend! I’m grateful to have you here. ❤️ I’ll accept those prayers gladly! 😊
Thank you for being so positive!
Keeping going Beka.👍🏿
Yes my exsuated is exsuated. So over this. I get the black outs too. And some times with convulsions or strobg shaking. Yes I pass out. And can't ride the rides at amusement park that flip you. I miss the whole ride from black outs/pass outs.
stay strong Rebekah, you are so amazing and sweet and I admire that you are so open about your life and your illness
😭😭 you are so stinking sweet and kind! Thank you so much for your kind words. ❤️
Thank you for sharing! I'm sure it helps many people know they are not alone regardless of their own personal situation!!💕
That is my hope, friend. ❤️ Thank you for being here and for the support. ❤️
Prayers going up 🙏
Sending hugs and prayers! Yes! Wear a medical bracelet!
Thank you friend! Yes, I’ve decided that getting a medical bracelet would be a great idea! Thank you for the suggestion and help!!
@@RebekahAllison ❤️❤️
Thank you for sharing!!!
My daughter was diagnosed with POTS when she was 15. It definitely takes you by surprise.
It really does! It’s an interesting diagnosis, and it definitely comes out of nowhere. I hope that she’s been able to manage her symptoms well! In my experience it comes and goes in waves, so I’m hoping that she’s doing well! ❤️
Thanks so much for sharing. I hope your health continues to improve. 🙂
You are so welcome! Me too!!! Thank you so much for your support! ❤️
My daughter has pots she’s 14. It’s been a struggle even though she doesn’t faint often. She wants to go to the bins with me, but I get nervous for her. How do you survive going?
Awww, I feel for her! That’s a great question! I bring my water bottle with me, and I always have salty snacks on me. So I like to chug water before going in (raises my blood pressure and increases blood volume) and then every few hours I’ll eat something salty to help raise my blood pressure too. If she can feel her symptoms coming on, then I would say that she should be able to go! But if she isn’t super aware yet, then maybe have her sit in the car for a rest after a bit of time digging. ❤️
@@RebekahAllison thanks for your response. I didn’t really think of taking breaks, I think because I get in the zone while I’m there lol. She does feel her symptoms for the most part but sometimes it sneaks up on her. It’s definitely a life adjustment.
Multiple chronic illness here. Reselling is a good option for work . Very thankful. ❤️❤️
I’m sorry that you have to face chronic illnesses too. ❤️ My heart goes out to you. And yes, reselling has been life-changing for me.
@@RebekahAllison thank you sweetie! Living with grace and just swimming. :) yes! Reselling full-time but I work part time in the hospital.I used to work in nursing but my back and my hips can’t handle it no more but I certainly love thrifting and making it into a job.
I'm so glad you shared your health .
Thank you so much. It was a scary decision, but it has been so worth it. ❤️
Thanks for sharing your life situation . Always try to stay positive. Please wear a medical bracelet! Is your dog, sorry don ´t remember to write his name correct, a service dog? I still believe he is cute, helpful and helps to stay you calm, with him you are never alone. You are such a brave, nice and friendly person, what a pity you have to go through! I wish you all the best. It is day after day, no rush, just in your time. It is your life and you are the boss! :- )
Oh my word, you are so sweet! No, Otis isn’t a service dog, but I definitely have thought about getting him training to become one. If not for me, I think he would make an excellent support animal to take into nursing homes and hospitals! I definitely am taking my job one day at a time, and I am SO grateful for the support that I have from my family, and from friends like you.
Sending you love and support from Richmond! ❤️
Awwww, thank you so much sweet friend in Richmond! ❤️
Omg! Me too!! I have POTS!! :-)
Also ADD, UC, and chronic fatigue lol
Yay! Not that I’m happy that you have it, but I love meeting people that face the same things!
Wow, you are so strong and you’re facing so much. My heart goes out to you friend. ❤️
Hugs & prayers.
Wow you are the secon RUclipsr that I watch that had been diagnosed worth POTs! Her name is Jessica Hickson.
Oh wow! I’ll have to check her out!!
I was diagnosed with this long after I knew I had it.
**hugs you tight**
Hey friend 🌺🙏🏽💓
HEY FRIEND! ❤️❤️❤️
oh dear,,,,so sorry...
Thank you, friend! But I’m doing well under my new medicine!
💕love you
Love you too, mom! ❤️
A really vivid memory I have is of you sitting in front of me while they were doing the tilt table test and freaking out when I started to pass out! And then the strawberry shake at Burger King afterward. 👍🏼
Worst trip in a parents life driving to Cleveland Clinic to see if you were going to live.
I’m sorry, daddy. ❤️
Sounds like it's stress related?
True! Stress also makes it much worse!
Sweetheart u inspire me
I have fibromyalgia and I can be a real baby
Awww, you are so sweet!! You’re not a baby, pain affects us all differently!
