Guest guest Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 I am in terrible pain today and I have to go help my aunt. She pays me and that is the only reason why I am going because I am flat broke! Which brings me to the reason why I am writing. People who aren't in pain do not understand how much it affects our daily life. I know I sometimes get panic attacks to take a shower because I know that I will be in pain. How many people you know has that problem? My guess would be zero! People assume that we say we are in pain because we are using it as an excuse or we are just lazy. The truth is that I want to work a fulltime job, maybe two. I want to hike, swim, play volleyball and softball. I want to travel. I want to do so much. I am only 35 and I feel as if I am older. I would never wish this pain on my worsest ememy, but sometimes I wish some of these people who look down on me and say that I am faking it, had this pain for at least one hour at the least. We do what we have to to survive. We work and do things in extreme pain, not because we want too, but because we have to. Dawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
