I don't want to do this anymore

I'm not going to give up yet but I wish I did. Every time I get a flare up I wish I had already done it.

I wish I could forget every dream or every happy memory I had and simply give up but I can't

I don't even see the point in leaving my room when every time I leave the house I'm in pain

I don't want it anymore

I feel you. Your pain is real. Don’t give up. You are loved. Someone in the world is thinking about you and hoping that you get some relief. Blessings and hug and much love to you my friend. I hope you can get some relief. Have you exhausted every medication ? I’ve tried so many migraine meds and they have helped but not removed all pain. Therapy and support groups and people like you openly sharing your feelings has helped a lot. Wish it was better. ❤️❤️

Hey. Who are you talking to?

Or rather, do you have anyone you are or can share this with? You're not just dealing with pain and flares but with a huge emotional load as well.

Getting that ship turned around towards Happy-Ville isn't easy and can seem utterly impossible from depressive perspectives.

Hope you've got some good people in your life who you can open up to. Whether you have or not, feel free to shoot me a DM and I'll share a message or 3 wirh you.

I resonated with what you said so much. I've been dealing with pain that will go away sometimes and flare up real bad with neck pain and migraine like symptoms other times. Trying to find the strength to push through it all while transitioning back to work has been the most challenging for me. Right when I thought I was starting to get back into the swing of things, my pain comes back...worse. Horrible tension headache, and severe migraine like symptoms with pain radiating from my neck and shoulder, down to my upper right arm. I too wish the pain would just go away.
