After Hit Pics____

I am going to share two pics I took of myself right after an attack was over. I was home alone and decided to get a couple of pics. I had the camera ready and took one with flash and one without.
As soon as I could see where the camera was I snapped these photo's. I did this to show my Neuro the next day what I looked like after a hit. Not pretty!!
It was the next day he scripted o2 for me which worked absolutely wonderful. Can't say enough about o2!!!!!
With the o2 I do not look like this after a hit if I catch it in time.

Thanks for the support. I sure wasn't upright a few minutes before that pic, it was a kip 9, some we never forget.
I love o2!!!

Great Horners' eye, Barry!
Mine looks exactily the same after a hit. In fact, that stupid droop lasts nearly all cycle for me. And, it's always noticible most in pics. I think that's why my docs thought I'd had a stoke when my first cycle hit.
Thanks for the post.
Hugs,
Kris

Barry,
I admire your courage.
I haven't been brave enough to look at the mirror after a hit and here you are, posting pictures. Thank you for that.
Lots of PF days,
Sanna

Thanks for the replies and support you guys. I was not sure if I should post them or not but knew it would be ok to do it here. I do not think I would put them on my blog or anywhere else as only we understand what these CH can do to one.
I though maybe if a newcomer saw these pics it might help in some small way for that person to say"hey, that is how I look after I have one of my attacks"
I applaud Antonio for the video he did of one of his attacks but I thought a pic would be also beneficial for others to see.
Thanks again my friends.
Barry

The bad part is that most of us have looked at that face in the mirror.....  In fact right now I can relate to it totally (just coming down off a hit).
Thanks for the graphic.....

I didn't think you looked too bad in the pix, however. I recognised the look of exhaustion, and it reminded me of how I feel inside when the beast hits. everyone here feels your pain x

You look like you've been through Hell, Barry. And, you were.
I choose not to even look in a mirror because I know I will look like the demon . Call it vanity if you like, that's OK
We all know that, in some variation, this is what we look like, and it ain't pretty (not to say, Barry that YOU ain't pretty, cuz you are beautiful to us).
I applaude your courage to take pictures of yourself after a hit. Thank you.

Great pics Barry....
I know how hard it was for you to post them... and it was very brave and unselfish. I hope they do as you intended and help someone who is suffering.
Thank you for doing this.
with warm regards,
Tony

I might take a picture next time i have a hit, but im warning you people, i might scare you all away. lol The funny thing is, my attacks vary. Sometimes ill hit 9's and 10's where im throwing myself around my living room like a crazy lunatic, and others, maybe 5's or 6's, which are basically just really annoying. I dont start pacing till i hit 8's and 9's. Thats when i start really climbing the walls. You guys really are soldiers though. Man it feels good to be in company where i can express my CH's.
