scared and alone

im scared and alone. sitting here in the darkness with the only light being myself. with my back up press to the wall. i feel hands reaching out of the darkness. grabing and pulling at me. tearing pices and parts of my light off. do they hold it close to them? no they hurl it away and come back for more.
my life is such terror and pain right now.

I'm so sorry your life is terror and pain and you feel like you are losing your light. My heart goes out to you and I send you ten-million hugs. Try to push yourself away from the wall and get out of that room. Put on some up-lifting music or call a friend. Don't let yourself think so hard about your terror. Try to think of what is good in your life and write it in your journal. And most of all, know that you are not alone and you are cared about. Hang in there!

A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...

    I have my maxed amount of epidural shots of my cervical DDD....(and no one cares about my lumbar DDD)..... I've done physical therapy, muscle relaxers, Amitriptyline, Nortryptiline, desipramine.....narcotics... So I decided to go to a spine specialist and they have me on Gabapentin. Its been two weeks and it did nothing for my lumbar ever... but it did seem to help my cervical and arm/hand pain...
