Guest guest Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 Honestly for me trying to cope with the depression from Chronic Pain has pushed me over the edge. I have done everything possible for doctors to manage my pain. But they refuse, and have left me to SUFFER. All they say is that I have to wait till I can get back to pain clinic(could be 18 months ) before I get in. Even went to local news paper and put my story in. Nothing happened. Made all the usual complaints to Health Commission etc. Nothing no-one will help me. This is the way it is in Australia. Have got Private mental health help. As the public system tells me I don't meet the CRITERIA. Turned away. I'm just about crippled. The pain goes from 7 to 9 out of ten daily. The night is the hardest as the pain level is to high to sleep properly. I know there is nothing the group can do to change this situation. But I'm hoping someone will read this. And think there is always someone worse off. I know deep inside I have had enough. And there is only one thing left. I have told the doctors that I feel suicidal and they said Nothing. It's so sad I hope to god no one else feels what I feel right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
