Title: pain is strange sometimes
Post by Lizzie2 on Nov 23^rd, 2004, 6:58pm

Well as of yesterday I was prepared to type a bunch of the latest Lizzie2 antics to all of you to hopefully give a few of you a laugh because it truly has been wacko lately!

However, today I feel the emotional pain and depression hurting me worse than the daily CH hits and chronic migraine. It's just been a bit of a rough day. I'm at my boyfriend's apt right now.

I have had a lot of health issues lately (yeah Jonny...even reality tv shows would laugh at this one!), and a horrid ER visit among many other things including the fact that I got a new car, and Dell is completely replacing my laptop, but that is for the antics thread. haha

When I'm feeling more cheery and smiley, I may share some stories of what has been going on lately.

I miss my family here, and I really need to draw on your support right now. Feeling emotional pain is just really difficult to bear, especially when someone doesn't understand it, which is currently the case.

I gave him the link to this page quite some time ago, so maybe he might come sometime and read up, post, or something. We'll see.

Love you guys...miss hangin with the family, but life has gotten in the way lately.

Luv,
Lizzie :'( :'( :'( but still.... :)

Hey squirt! I was wondering where you got to. Glad to see you again but sorry you're once again dealing with problems.

As to the "someone" send him to me - we'll fix him all up and he'll quickly understand. Actually, you can give him the choice between grandma or jonny! Hmmmmm - wonder what he'd do with that!

Take good care little one - try to keep your chin up and let us know how you're doing.

Thanks for all the thoughts, vibes etc. It does mean a lot! Sorry I haven't been able to get back online. I was at David's from Monday to Wednesday, and then I turned around and came up here to Syracuse from Wednesday to today. I'll be going home today and for at least a little while, I'll actually have use of a wireless internet connection! Woohoo! ;)

David and I have had a lot of talks about things that bother each other, and I think we are working things out. It's a lot to explain. Part of it is waiting for his divorce to naturally default this March since she won't sign the papers (although he hasn't seen her since 1/16/03). Mess there. I mean...it isn't really a mess, but it still affects me because I'm with him. I'm just hoping it goes through without any further complications! Enough already!

Then there's him adjusting to my life with chronic migraine and clusters. Sometimes he says stuff like, "Well you not wanting to go out as much is just something I have get 'used' to." That drives me nuts. I told him that makes me feel like I'm an imposition and placing a burden on him that I can't do as many things as most 23 year olds!! (Almost 24 that is...hint hint haha) So we've talked about that. I started to get hit with a CH while we were in line at Best Buy the other day, so I simply took his keys and went to the car. I'm sure he was surprised to see any part of it, but frankly it was mild in comparison to how bad they can get. I wasn't swearing, banging my head against the car door or anything like that....hahaha just wait till he gets ahold of that view!

So yeah...I asked him once again to check out this site. He said he will eventually. I am wondering if he is scared...scared to find out more and what it is really like? I'm not sure. Next time I see him is Saturday night after I get off my 3-11:30 shift in orientation for my externship in Maternity.

Anyways, I was really feeling down that day and for some reason every time he would start saying stuff, I'd start crying which really made me feel like an idiot.

I just needed my fam'ly! Thanks!! You all have made me feel much better. :)

I'll start another thread for the comical antic things later (like why I got a new car, why I'm getting a new laptop, and other fun..by Lizzie) haha

Luv to you all and hope you had a great thanksgiving!!!

We should be home from Syracuse sometime tonight, and then I'm going to try to post more...but if the new laptop arrives (from India no less) then I might actually have to work on it! lol

Hugz,
Lizzie :)

Yeah, and you not posting as much is hard to get used to, but then when you do post, that drives me... ;)

I have a hard time getting 23 year olds to do stuff with me too. :(

Hey, triggers aren't that identifiable to me, but when I'm doing my Christmas shopping there on Dec. 24, I'll remember this and go prepared.

Good to hear Lizzie. :) I myself have spent much time getting acquainted with maternity's known causes. That sounds like a thorough orientation, I was usually asleep before a shift like that ended.

And you know, this family is SO supportive. I've been getting advise and learning about that "pretend and nod" thing. I could teach him some about that if he's not understanding enough.

I like hearing from you but, I haven't seen where you need to work on it, unless its that "500 word or less" post that's giving you problems. ;;D

luv you Lizzie :-*

Ahhhhhhhh, Lizzie, sending you hugs and vibes for a better tomorrow. Remember the serenity prayer.

Lord, Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change. The courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference (without Jonny's or Grandma's boot).

Thinking of ya !
