I've had a bad weekend, the worst and longest headache
yet in this cycle and I am totally exhausted and don't
think I can make it through another one. And as if that
isn't enough my TMJ has flared it's ugly head and on
the same side the beast has hit. I feel like someone
has beaten the living hell out of me. I have no one
here that understands what the pain is like, I really
don't think they believe how bad the pain is. The only
support I have is here on this site, and that makes it
hard because I feel I need support during the attack
when I can't function to get on the computer to get
to you guys for support. The beast is wearing me down.
You would think after all these years of pain and
hardship that the beast has caused me and my family and
friends that they would have more compassion and
understanding. Surely they can see how it hurts me to
be such a disappointment. I know it's hard for anyone
to understand unless you experience the pain for
yourself, but why can't they see by just looking
into my eyes how bad I hurt. I sure don't enjoy
feeling this pain and isolation. Thanks you guys for
being here and for lending me your ear.
