Your pretty special your self.

I find you to be an amazing inspiring women.

You have been there for me.

And listened to my rants ;)

Thank you so much. You have helped me in so many different ways.


I know you have been there for others too.

I'm glad this pm thread exists. It is so help full and it give us a place to
feel we are not alone in our situation.

Sometimes it's good to talk about thing to
People who are not in our everyday lives.

It can put a different perspective on things.
 
This thread, this entire site has saved my life on a few occasions now and Im really grateful for all of the people that contribute to it.

Zoey you are amazing too sugar :)
 
I'm a crack head when it comes to coke! Lol! But yeah I'm cutting back sodas. Especially now I'm eating like a prego. Sodas are just empty calories.

I want a water filtration system. We replaced the tap and you can not hook one up but I'm going to buy a Britta filter jug when i go to the store next.

I buy cheap bottled water and it still tastes good. Some brands taste like puddle water. Idk of its the way they store it or what.

damn crackhead mods;)

yeah, good idea on the britta filter as well. i forgot about those jugs. it's unfortunate you can't get the ones which hook up to your taps. at least your mindful on having to cut back on the "soda's". i'm australian so you probably think we're crazy for calling them "soft drinks".

we have rain water tank (and trickle feed from the towns water supply for backup) so whenever i drink from a tap anywhere i notice the difference straight away. though, in most cases, it's still not bad enough for me to buy into the bottled water.

my pain has been pretty damn good overall and i've been sleeping like a champion - taking my morphine IV still, though and valium as prescribed for the majority. nothing to complain about or report that's worth mentioning other than that really. i had my 4 wisdom teeth out last week so naturally there's been that spike in acute pain but nothing a little codeine, ibuprofen and that occasional hit of paracetemol hasn't been able to help take the edge off. i'm back to eating normally now (thank fuck!) but feel like my jaw has taken a beating. the worst is over and it's only getting better.

Lol!! Crack head mods :)

I'm glad your pain is under control. I never had wisdom teeth and was scared to death to get them since a child. Maybe I mentally forced my body to not let them come in? I doubt it. I have no room in my mouth for them.

I have less pain but still can't sleep all night. I wake up and get on BL at crazy hrs.
I hate waking up hurting.

I'm really glad you can sleep and your doing well with everything going on.


@Doomed2Pain I hope your resting well right now all snugly in your bed having sweet dreams.
But with the time zone thing your probably waking up so I hope you slept well and have a good morning <3
 
Just remember your loved and cared about. We are here for you.

This sort of closeness is what makes this thread so great. And Doomed- Please remember that you should feel free to post whatever you want without any filtering. That's what this forum is for ... I mean, if we could easily share all that we talk about on here with the people in our everyday lives, we wouldn't be using the site... wait, does that even make sense lol?
Point is, please, nobody hold back how you're really feeling for fear of worrying others. we love you, zoeylynn & doomed<3
PS... Zoeylynn, you never answered my question;) IS it possible???

Oh! Yes! Lemon juice is great for lighting up hair naturally! You don't think I'm really a natural natural blonde?

My hair gets bleached during summer and the roots show. They look really dark compared to the sun kisses blonde but when it grows out it is a light Ash with shimmery golden highlights.

I take care of the roots with sun in or a home mixture.

But if you want to go platinum blonde when you have Raspberry red hair, blue, brown, or near black, use clariol ultra blonde with Blue. A local channel did a story on me and at the time I had raspberry red hair a temp color, uh no. I did it for Halloween and it stayed till dec when I tried everything to strip it out. I went to Sally's and my hair was fried. I spent close to triple digits on the products. Then my hair was white and raspberry red.

The night before I bought the clarol ultra blonde with blue and I had beautiful platinum blonde hair with a light ever so light translucent baby doll pink hue that was not noticeable on tv. They showed the story for 2 weeks and I was on the holiday commercials through jan 1st. It was awesome :)




What does this have to do with pm?

Even if we suffer greatly, it always lifts our mood to feel beautiful and attractive.
Emotional state plays a big role in how we perceive our pain. I know when I look pretty my out look on life improves
And I feel good. So don't forget to treat yourself to something that is special and make you feel good too.

Thank you for the advice, I wasn't sure what I was going to do with my hair. it really is true though ...
if I find myself feeling down for days on end and don't take care of myself it only worsens my depression and pain.
 
Me too. I hate looking in the mirror and seeing stringy hair oily skin ect.

I just started face timing my sister and I hated the way I looked.

So I put on make up for the first time in forever and I felt like I looked better felt better and had a positive self image about my self.

You will rarely ever see me on Tiny chat or Skype because I don't like the way I look on the screen. In person I look ok. On the screen my acne scares are enhanced and I see all the flaws. But a little concealer and bomb super model lol!! J/k
But it helps :)

Im sorry i worried you all. Im ok just in a dark place with my mental health and the constant pain isn't helping. I will be ok. Thanks for all the nice messages <3

:( I've been there man, I'm not clinically depressed but there's times I feel terrible and really hate myself. My pain issues make me feel worthless, like why would anyone want to deal with a near-cripple, you know?

It's hard, but I'm sure most of us have been there too. Keep your head up and just keep the things in mind that keep you happy. Depression makes the pain worse, and if you're like me, being depressed leaves you in a cycle of bad thoughts.
 
Good god how have I never seen these threads before. What a godsend to see I'm not the only one getting fucked by docotrs.

2 years ago was in a wicked car crash that was someone elses fault, had crippling lower back pain where I literally couldn't shift in bed without bursting into treats. I went to countless doctors of every kind, and wasn't given anything more powerful than ibuprofen. Suffered from severe anxiety all my life, combined with this, good god I wanted death. Every doctor that laid eyes on my pierced up 19 year old face, they laughed at my requests for even vicodin or codeine

So I started shooting heroin, very very pure tar has innundated minneapolis. A year into my habit some magical doctor came from nowhere and prescribed me 195mg of oxy a day, which was a grain of salt in comparison to my dope habit.

2 years later went through detox and am on 8mg of suboxone a day. I have a job where I'm constantly on my feet,running around making food, and the sub does nothing for pain except to stave off withdrawals. Obviously at this point after going through detox/rehab no one in their right mind will script anything other than bupe, except methadone, but fuck that shit.

When my back siezes up it takes all my strength and poise to even stay standing, and my boss thinks I'm bullshitting to get off work. Smoking copious amounts of weed helps, for maybe a half hour.

Its so depressing, 3 yrs ago I could bench twice my body weight, and was pretty damn good at snowboiarding, with a girlfriend I almost had a kid with. Because of the pain and addiction, I am now peniless, alone, and I'm a 21 year old cripple. My only friends are my two roomates, and most of the time when they go play football or go party, I stay home because I'm too embarassed walking around like an old man, not to mention the social anxiety off dope

Fucking a

I'm so sorry to hear that.

Doctors are so fickled these days.

Your appearance should not have anything to do with pain management.


Your job can be in a lot of trouble. Look up your labor laws you have rights.

Welcome to our humble community.

What are your conditions?

Tell us about your self, but don't self incriminate. Like post things that can literally ID you.
I'm sure you know what I mean.
 
i have court on monday for my worker's comp case. mandatory mediation. they want me to quit as part of any settlement. my OWN GODDAMNED LAWYER thinks i should quit. fuck them all. i pay $10/wk for my healthcare and i am not giving that up. there's no way i am going to resign.
 
Hey all, just wanted to pop in and say hi

I saw my primary care doc yesterday who is concerned I am having all sorts of peripheral health issues that are contributing to increased pain, heavy sleep pattern waking up hung over and more tired, and concerned about the post-surgical progress...or lackthereof that has ocurred in my life presently.

My testosterone is way low, and since I have had to move back in with my folks these last 2 years due to all the spine surgeries and huge medical bills, I have them riding my ass like I am not giving enough of an effort to change things...as if I am satisfied putting on 50 lbs after losing 150lbs, sitting on my ass day in and day out bored out of my mind without any fulfilling things in my life currently.

Sorry for rambling and sounding negative, but I didn't ask for this life and I sure as hell don't want to continue it. I hope that my message gets across to my family because I need as much positive support as I can get.
 
^good luck with the widsom teeth extraction, brighton. i had my 4 taken out just last week and it's caused huge spikes in pain. when i think it's mainly over i get hit with intense bouts that last an hour or two. i've just been taking codeine and ibuprifen on top of my normal PM regime and the pain has been controlled for the most part. i can't wait until ALL the pain dissipates and bruising goes. icing the jaw has been helping a good bit. and rinsing and gargling warm salty water.

they're giving me a bit of grief currently:|
 
i'm finding it more most useful as well. just i've a codeine/ibu combination.

i'm using it for inflammation and it's controlling it just fine with the short bursts of pain.
 
I hope everyone is having a low pain day. Im in agony hardly slept i just want the pain to stop now i have had enough of it. Im not finding any relief from the Duloxetine either i don't know how long Im meant to wait before it works for the nerve pain the Dr doesn't know either. This sucks
