are we passing to our families and loved ones, my son makes rash statements to me and has even called me an asshole when he is in severe Crohn's pain, I love him, and tell him if it would make him feel better to hit or kick me, go ahead, I let his comments just bonce off and realize that he needs help. When he gets rough on his sister, this can send her off in the deep end, but I have to pull aside and say that Nick doesn't mean these things, he is in pain and it's been going on for years, I loose my cool during an attack, and try to get away from my family during these times, but after the attack apoligized to them and make it up to them somehow, living with pain is not easy and can cause undue stress, I am sure under normal conditions, attacking another person would not occur, I did respond last night to Helloooo, woke up with a cluster and was in a bad mood after it broke, tired and worn out, now I am sorry that I responded at all, I hope that Helloooo was not going through a similar experience, our tempers, especially mind, are one of the most difficult things to control during the attack, and I always seem to hurt the ones that I love the most.
