I’m sorry to hear of your severe predicament.
Things were quite grim for me too and I suspect my life might have been at risk had I continued on the destructive path.
But I was able to correct and turn things around - though the recovery has taken as long as 10 years (depending on when you start measuring from) and is still in progress.
But I know my life is not in danger anymore and I’ve had a long enough period of things steadily getting better that I can be confident of that continuing.
I’m quite confident your stress contributed to your health issues; I’ve extensively researched the mind-body link, and that’s been the key to my recovery.
You can contact me (email in bio) if you’d like any pointers.
Regardless, best wishes in your journey.
Just for an anecdotal counterpoint, I endured severe burnout and ruined my health to the point of almost dying. I'm still struggling to regain my health 3 years later.
To be fair, it's not 100% sure that the burnout caused my health issues (multiple pancreatitis attacks and major relapse of a dormant neurological condition), but some doctors said it was likely that stress had contributed. Personally, I'm certain that the two are connected.
