So much pain

I'm in so much pain I'm thinking stupid things...
I can't sleep and I've already taken sleeping medicine and a muscle relaxer...My mind starts wandering and I start to think "if only people know what I go through...I go through hell all the time and no one knows..."Then again...I don't tell themNo one wants to hear my complaints...so as soon as I start telling them they redirect me to tell them something more cheerful...that's when I say a witty remark or a funny joke...I am quite the actress!
I know that this will pass and eventually I'll get to sleep...I just wish people really understood what this is like...because I remember what life was like before this and it was amazing...it was so much easier...

I SO can relate. I had a bad day a few days ago where even transferring onto my toilet was difficult so had to call my aide for help. Just try to remember there are good days and bad days. MS is unpredictable for sure! It sucks and that\'s it!!!!!

Sorry you are going through this. M.S. really sucks & for people that don\'t have it they can never fully understand the frustration of having chronic discomfort. Are there any M.S. support groups near where you live? I hope you get some sleep soon.
