I have been hospitalized, the last time for 2 months. I was diagnosed with PTSD. It seems to me the Fibro pain would get so bad and I started remembering everything from my childhood. It was horrific. With the pain and this new found memory base I fight ever day to hold it together. I am not ashamed of it. We are all different and this horrible disease we have is unrelenting. Something has to change for the GOOD. Keep fighting.
I have because of severe depression from the pain and not being able to work any more. Fibro just hit me like a ton of bricks but I have to say it was nice to get away from everyone.
I have because of pain. It just sucks that they don't help with pain. But at the time it was nice to get away for a bit
Yes I have and it was the best thing that could have happened to me. I really got a lot of rest and I really needed the counseling because I was so depressed. I couldn't do anything anymore I felt like my life was over. Then I turned to God and its been ok ever since.
I was refused help for my pain from docs in the ER one day b cause of testing positive for thc one day and given a pain shot in the same ER a week later. These dam rules r ment for criminals and addicts not pot users.
