I have chronic pain too. A pill doesn\'t take away all the pain but I wish it did. I\'ve taken sleep aids on the worst nights. I went last late night to walmart and bought alteril and took 2 in the parking lot then I went home and slept, despite the pain and anxieties of my Mom problems. Have you tried any of the over the counter sleep aids? The alteril helped me sleep last night dispite my worse pain and frustrations. Some people here said they have used benadryl too. I have in the past and it works pretty good. I hope you get some therape. Have you got an appointment for any counseling yet? If not make one? You say you want to scream, so do it. Scream loudly into a pillow or in the back room. Go walking even tho you don\'t feel good. Get outside. Write a list of things your grateful for. Come back home and scream some more. Find some friends who will listen (don\'t wear them out) . People here will support you.
