Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
I have a new way of expressing how my severe Chronic Fatigue Syndrome feels. It is like having a thousand paper cuts. It will not kill me but inconvenience and pain of it is a huge pain to have to endure.
I am in physical pain this morning. It is more than my regime of pain meds can cover. I am always conscience of my tendency for addiction. If I take my pain meds as with Lortabs (sp?) for an emotional lift, then I am venturing on addiction. However, if I take a extra pain med to deal with the increase amount of pain it emotionally helps me also. When the pain recedes to its normal amount of pain, I emotionally feel a uplift, feel better. Perceptions, hun?

I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...

If you think that some people have to take meds all thier lives to keep them alive, is that addiction?
Be safe, be well.
