If only we could erase bad memories and achieve financial stability for the rest of our lives, our mental health would no doubt improve. A reflection on trauma, OCD, MS, and the importance of stability for wellbeing
Migraines are not just “bad headaches”; they are a complex neurological condition that can take different forms, often mimicking other medical problems. Understanding the different types, their causes, and how to manage them can make a huge difference to your quality of life, especially if you suffer frequently.
In an era where innovation is at the forefront of healthcare, one fundamental aspect remains overlooked: accessibility and sustainability in pharmaceutical packaging. While the UK pharmaceutical industry, commonly referred to as “Big Pharma,” is known for its cutting-edge research and distribution networks, the end-user experience, particularly among vulnerable groups such as the elderly, disabled, and those with mental health challenges, is often ignored.
The human microbiome refers to the trillions of microorganisms—bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa—that live on and inside the body. The gut microbiome, in particular, plays a crucial role in digestion, immune function, and even brain chemistry. Research is rapidly uncovering how this “second brain” in the gut communicates with our actual brain and influences physical and mental well-being.
Raynaud’s disease (also known as Raynaud’s phenomenon or syndrome) is a circulatory condition that affects blood flow to certain parts of the body, usually the fingers and toes. When exposed to cold temperatures or stress, the small blood vessels in the extremities constrict excessively, leading to pain, numbness, tingling, colour changes, and functional limitations.
“Vouchers Are Not A Lifeline, They Are A Limitation. This move is discriminatory, removes choice, and reinforces stigma”.
Furthermore, vouchers could severely isolate individuals with non-visible or fluctuating disabilities who may already struggle to go outside, use public transport, or interact with others due to pain, fatigue, or anxiety. For example, someone with severe OCD, PTSD, or Crohn’s disease may rely on online retailers or niche services for survival, many of which may not accept government-issued vouchers.
No two disabled people are the same, and no two days are alike—yet current disability assessments fail to recognise this vital reality. Understanding Disability Fluctuations and the Need for Reform in PIP Assessments
When a system structurally excludes, misjudges, or punishes people with fluctuating disabilities, it is not just morally unjust — it may also be legally non-compliant. Disabled individuals and advocacy groups have a strong basis to argue that the PIP framework, as currently implemented, fails to meet legal standards of fairness, equality, and dignity.
Exploring the link between MS, digestive sensitivity, and allergic reactions—how food and drink choices could be affecting your health more than you realize. Living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is challenging enough without the added discomfort of food intolerance and allergic reactions.
Chronic pain and fatigue are two of the most debilitating symptoms for those living with autoimmune disorders like Multiple Sclerosis (MS). These conditions often lead to invisible disabilities, which can make it difficult for sufferers to explain or express their needs. People may not always realize the extent of the physical and emotional toll these symptoms take, particularly when they flare up in such a way that daily activities become increasingly difficult or dangerous.
