The many SYMPTOMS that I had during my journey with Advanced Stage Adrenal Fatigue

all this is me now… i have no help. my friends have left me alone because i’m not happy … so the don’t want to talk to me. i have no husband, no children, no friends, no doctors. no more money… i’m am all alone … but i have my best friend Jesus.that is my only hope!

Everything you said is my story too. I know my dentist didn’t believe me when I said I had no energy to brush my teeth at the end of the day, or even in the morning. It sometimes takes me three days to work up the energy to shower. After that there is no energy or strength left to even hold a toothbrush. I have just discovered the ANS connection after 30 years of this misery. Wish me luck.

Your video showed up for me today I was told by God I’ve been dealing with this since 2012. I’m so thankful you explained in detail what this was like for you. I pray you’ve made a recovery as I’m about to in the mighty name of Jesus we are healed Shalom!

I can identify with so many of the symptoms. Insomnia is high on my list and being awake most of the night is not easy to cope with and adds to the anxiety.

Just re-listened to this. So good, Petra has been a major support for me to get through this - thank you Petra.

I had very similar symptoms Symptoms: Panic (could not go to the grocery store due to fear of panicking in public) Anxiety (racing thoughts feeling like I was dying, thought I had a brain tumor, horrible Brain fog,) Overwhelming sense of dread Lightheadedness Had no energy to speak (felt like a drag and felt like I needed to muster the last bit of energy to do it) No appetite Cold and sweaty feet and hands Dry mouth Neck and shoulder tension Chronic fatigue Odd facial and head sensations especially behind face in area of nasal cavity and temples (pins and needles or pressure) Constant diarrhea Insomnia did not sleep a whole year to wanting to sleep all the time (remember do not feel guilty to sleep..if your body is tired it’s telling you for a reason. Tell yourself you deserve it) I didn’t want to leave the house in fear I would have these symptoms out in public, but staying home would also trigger it. Family and friends said that I aged 5 years in a single year. I had gone through a really bad breakup and thought my ex would do whatever she could to take my kids away from me. That in addition to being inside for a whole year due to pandemic. My uncle and grandmother passed away within the same year. You don’t realize what toll some stressors could take on the body. Whoever is going through this stay strong and seek help in friends, family or medical practitioners.

29 years of chronic insomnia has done this to me. I haven't been able to work for a whole year and thanks God my kids are teenagers because I don't have the energy.

Wow, this is such a light bulb moment. Thank you for walking through this so meticulously.

Pete  I am Cynthia’s husband and carer. Without me Cynthia would not survive. I don’t think she is bad as you have been but perhaps worse in other conditions. Like you she has been assessed as having liver issues ( congested liver). People , friends, telephone and she puts on her telephone voice and comes off the call and cries. The same caller will say to me that Cynthia sounds better. If on rare occasions I take her out in the car and she is seen by neighbours, they often report that she looks better. Your Webb sight and support is of tremendous help to us both.

I really appreciate this video! I’m in the midst of yet another crash. I thought I’d learned my lesson from the last big one but I became preoccupied with world events. So.. the last couple of years I did most everything that we are not supposed to do with weakened adrenals - consumed stimulating foods, obsessed over negative events that are out of my control and attempted physical activity that was too much for me. Type A personality I think and so I just kept mentally busy all the time. Body is saying “slow down”.

God bless you 🙏 i have having fungal infection that gave me severe adrenal fatigue i been so sick 5 years with deep depression, even had to have people in government coming here on meetings as support every tuesday, weight loss sleep problems blisters inside the lips , dry skin, insomnia and woke up and hard time fall asleep again... chills fever... exhaustion is just to small name how i felt this years. I know how this journey is so hard and painful. I also had suicide thoughts most year 2021.. now im healing more mentally mediatating praying close to God and eat healthy food no sugar gluten... starved myself on diets nothing worked... but now i also detox all heavy metals in my body that also make me so sick.. now im detoxing and healing from adrenal fatigue every day gets better..one day at time it will get better. But all this pain have made me a changed person i feel more love and emphaty more than ever to people that are sick and suffer cause i walked thru that valley of death , u have to gone thru it to know what real pain feels like

Adrenal fatigue is in part caused by hyper vigilance or response to alarms and threats. The adrenals are triggered to fight or flight and the repetitive nerve excitations wears down the nerve endings . Focus is lost because they are still responding to the now past alarm. People who are sensitive like this are often good sentinels of looming disasters IF they are not too turned on to the adrenal flash. Imagine a cat that senses something and the hair stands up. In fact animal reactions are one of the first warning signs in earthquake situations. And humans are in part animals.

Thanks so much for talking about this!! It's a big help to know some of these symptoms are not psychosomatic!!

Wow. Just running into your video like it was calling me. These are my symptoms.

100% what I went through, still going through to some extent. Wishing everyone healing, consistency over intensity

I am so glad you made this video and it reached me, Doctors have not been able to diagnose all this about me, nor could i explain much . I have been on Anti Depressant and beta blockers for the past year. and trying some nootropics right now with adaptogens to recover. Thanks for sharing your story . More power to you.

I shut off all my phone and computer notifications. Total silence. I would check when I wanted to, when I was able to. Instead I would listen to the audio bible, it gave me immense comfort. At night, I would play psalms and pray for God to hold me like a baby. He did, and made my nightmares go away.

Just found your video .thank you Soo much for posting this and the symptoms with this hell of disease.. I feel less alone I couldn't understand what was happening to me I thought I was loosing it..or not going to make it most days it's just unbelievable..I can relate to aalot of your symptoms..people take so much for granted until you can't do something..I couldn't even check the mail..go outside..or do house work driving was out of the question and much more.. without paying for it later..I couldn't even be left alone.. anxiety was just fully unlocked all my with other issues.. Still dealing with migraines/headaches and flare days..but all that you said symptoms wise was me 95%... thank you again for posting...

OMG Petra, my heart breaks as you express the absolute nightmare that you had to experience and overcome. I'm grateful that your partner was there for you and that you were able to hire help. I'm grateful that you are much better and have chosen to share you battle with us. I pray that God will save you from ever having to endure such a wretched challenge. Keep laughing and smiling, you light up when you do. BIG 🤗💕🙏.

I went through all this and still 10 years later but not as intense. I think it's in many ppl, it's caused by medication such as antidepressants and meds in the benzodiazapeins like xanax , Klonopin etc Most Drs have No clue how to wean ppl off this crap. Dr Josef on YouTube speaks of this ..in protracted withdrawal ALL these bizarre horrific symptoms are mentioned. It's a nightmare and definitely feel alone in it as far as "loved ones/friends" Im clinging to the Lord...i have medical trauma/treatments, as any "help" I've desperately searched for has made me chronically and horribly worse, they call it fibromyalgia...i call it poisoning.😖🤯 May God bless this mess and all who live this nightmare. Much appreciation for your vid , i know how difficult it must be. Sending much love cares n prayers. 💖🙏💖🙏🕊️✨✨✨✨✨
