Hello @irr4et I'm so sorry you are in such a difficult place. It's human nature to want to move less because we hurt, and its easy to become deconditioned. One of the first things I learned at Mayo Pain Rehab Center was -
"hurt does not equal harm"
The less we move, the harder it gets. Finding the right ways to move is important with chronic conditions. Do you work with a physical therapist? Have you ever tried water therapy?
Poor memory can result from medication side effects. Do you take many medications? Have you spoke with your PCP about how you feel?
How do you think change can happen for you? What is the first step you'd like to try towards rehabilitation?
