Chronic Pain Support Group
Physicians and professionalsdefine pain as chronic if it lasts longer than three to six months and is persistent. It's distinct from acute pain that is a direct result of injury or trauma. This support group is dedicated to those suffering from chronic pain. Discuss treatments that have worked for you, find advice for your specific experience, and find support. You're not...
I just want to tell all of you how grateful I am to have found this site. I play around on here and one of my favorite things to do is to make people laugh that can make me laugh,too. And I have laughed more since joining this site than in the last three years combined. My hubby and family have great senses of humour, but those poor unfortunates closest to me bear the burden of my losses almost as much as I do, it often seems.
I also still cry often. Difference is, now it's not always for me. I don't spend nearly as much time only thinking of myself and how badly I feel since I found you.
Since I came here, the date has come and passed that I promised myself
To set myself free from this pain. Okay, keepin' it real, that I had told myself I would kill myself if the pain was still here.
Well, it was still here, and worse.
But, between the tears of my family as they watched me giving up, and the understanding and kindness of you on this site, I found some iota of strength to hold on just a little bit longer. Then a little more.....
That's funny. I've always said " I have NEVER depended upon the kindness of strangers."
Of course, life is still hard. Pain still sucks. I am so damned tired.......
And I know you all are right there in it, too. And I'm sorry for your sakes that you are. But, for mine, and my familys' sakes,I'm so grateful that you're here.
You literally saved my life. I thank you with all of my heart.
Sorry this ran so long.
