Title: Simply getting slammed
Post by wildhaus on Jun 27^th, 2006, 2:56pm

Simply getting slammed… (Started a new cycle? The last 4 days)….. looks like I forgot how painful this beast gets
and still will not give in……..even if at times I feel down :-[…….the beast will not
get the better of me ….. And between O², Zomig Nasal, Kudzu, if needed GLOA
and acupuncture…. And hypnosis I will get it just past me…. OR?
And if I didn’t make it to the convention Oh well, then I was dealt the loosing cards
And the beast did win >:(

There ya go, Michael - THAT's the attitude needed for cluster survival. You hold on to that and make it your mantra.

I'm sorry to hear that you're hurting. Know that we all stand beside you offering you understanding and support.

Nothing will give you the boost to beat this thing like making it to the convention Michael.. I promise you it will give you more will to fight than you would have believed possible. Almost exactly a year on I can still say when I'm getting battered that I can think of Dallas last year and smile through gritted teeth and carry on. Dallas last July has given me the grit and determination to get to Milwaukee this year and beyond. I simply can't express the power of being with other clusterheads.
You'll see for yourself :)

Sounds as if I'll have to try to get to the convention next year. I've never met another clusterhead in person.

Hang in there, guy--it comes, it does its thing, and then it goes away. There's a lot of life between the slams, and hey--we're clusterheads, after all--the toughest people on the planet. We can deal.

Best regards,

George

George I can promise you - there is no place like home!

Are you a coffee drinker? If so then guzzle at work.

Drinks containing Taurine might help to.

I'm sorry to hear you started another cycle. My bf started his a couple/few weeks ago. He too, forgot how intense the pain is.

But i have to say, you guys are the strongest people I've ever met. I don't think I could survive these things. I don't know how you do it.

So dip into that amazing well of strength you have. You can get thru this. You will get thru this.

You are not alone, we are there with you, tho' we're far apart your always in our heart.

Not just words but sincere sentiments - as we have all been where you are - and we all come out the other end - just as you will.

Hang in there and stay positive so that you can tell somebody else just how you beat the beast!!
