Does anyone else get so exhausted that they feel disconnected from themselves? Lately I'm feeling like things that happen are almost like dreams, and I'm walking around in a state where I feel like I'm just disconnected from myself and from other things. I know that it's also a symptom of my c-ptsd, but I wondered if it's also just the endo brain fog that's making me feel this way? Thanks for reading, guys.

I'm just wondering what other woman use for pain. The only thing I have found that works is marijuana. If its in pill form , I have to almost overdose just for it to help.
