About people not supporting each other...

June 27, 2000

I have been reading so much about how others in the groups are not

supporting each other as they used to. I may be way off in left field

when I say this, but with my personal battle with RSD, it is hard to

understand why our feelings flood out like they do. Sometimes, we put

the “proverbial” foot in our mouths so to speak, and say and write

things we do not really mean. I have found this to be much worse when I

have taken too much medicine. If I ever step on anyone’s’ toes with

something I write, please let me know in private. Even those with the

kindest of hearts have a bad day/s when everything we touch turns to ???

That’s when forgiveness comes in real handy.

The way I look at times when someone says something that gets on my

nerves, I can either ask them to stop or just try to block them out. I

personally, try to understand that the other person is just going

through something bad just like we all do with rsd and/or fibro. RSD is

a disease that attacks us all mentally as well as physically (That is

not to say we are crazy). See, I could have truly stepped on someone’s

toes just then, and I’m in a happy-good mood, and mean nothing bad or

derogatory at all.

Please contact me at raj@... if I have ever gotten on your

nerves or have written anything that has offended you in any way. I deal

well with criticism and good comments too, often times, that’s how I

learn. I am sending this to the four groups I write to including the one

I started a couple of weeks ago. We are all friends in one-way or

another here because we all have something unique in common – “RSD’s

constant pain and effects.”

I hope this helps:
