It's another morning and the pain has woken you up once again. It's been a decade long journey that would involve several surgeries and eventually bi lateral orthopedic braces. You were able to keep a few friends but over the years you have lost more friends and relationships than you have.
You knew many years ago that this would happen people would stop asking you to gatherings or fun camping trips because 9 times out of ten you have to say no because of your condition..
The pain would eventually drive you mad and now you have to take antidepressants because you started hearing voices telling you to kill yourself and the stress of being on edge everyday.
You have never met such a formidable foe than chronic pain so you spend years and a bag of tricks trying to live and prosper within this living hell.
This is my story but other than a couple differences it is the story of millions of people world wide so that something you constantly hear,and maybe even say to yourself it could be worse other people have worse conditions.
Then one day you realize that the worst outcome of your neurogenic muscle atrophy is being paralyzed and now it's really serious your ability to walk and your ability to take care of yourself is at stake
All this is just compounded because now you have no friends and you can't leave the house unless it's Dr appointment or u have to do shopping.
I've never felt so alone in my life.
Im not the only one on this forum to feel this way how do others cope with the endless pain and endless loneliness? I'm out of ways to cope my tool box is empty would be nice if someone had some insight.🙂🌻 #ChronicPain #neurogenicmuscleatrophy #dusabled #Deoression #tactilealodynia
