Acceptance is the key, especially when it becomes catastrophic.

@Jammer yep…and mine has quickly moved in that direction. As long as I can sleep though, I will survive it again…

I find this a not easy statement. Acceptance is like in the mind. However, t is also in the mind/ears/brain, physical. Biology and psychology is connected. Would acceptance be kind of a mind over matter something?
There is a connection, but it's difficult to really understand or grasp.

The only thing i can say kind of for sure for myself is... sleep.. i really need to be able to sleep.
When the t was overwhelming, and i couldn't even sleep well for long periods.. this was exhausting. Anything (not too harmful) which helps me for a good night's rest & giving it time is beneficial for healing i tell myself

@L along the way that is a very good observation. I reached the place of true acceptance several times now and it is more of a peaceful whole body experience. My current state is probably better described as desperate submission.

@Barry098 thanks.. i can relate.. the times when i felt more peaceful, was when i felt 'less in my head', more in my body. Sad to hear the description of desperate submission. To me, it also swings.. sometimes it's.. how to say.. 'okay/livable'.. other times it's just difficult to find ease.
