secret feelings

i’m not sure i know how to keep living. the pain is ever growing, my system is staying so down that i can’t help but sleep for 20 hours a day. blisters all over my mouth. on my lip. a cyst or tumor growing rapidly on my jaw, i wake up because it is hurting me. golden staph. more pain. more drugs. i don’t know what the point is now. i haven’t any reason. i feel like my body is spiralling further and further down and it will die soon. i have tears. there is nobody i can ask for help anymore. inside, i am dying. i don’t know how to move from here. do i just wait in bed for death to come and find me? or do i keep trying to live a pathetic life of four hour days filled with physical pain, self hatred and dependance on others? i wonder if unsick people ever think about how lucky they are? to be able to do things. regular things. everyday.

well that's gotta suck! its so gaddamn hard when your body betrays and imprisons you. i spent a couple of years sleeping pretty much 20hours a day and being unable to escape pain too. it sucks. a lot. (neck injury)

luckily for me (and yes i do think about it!) i am pretty much better.

have you tried meditation?

*HUGS!*

I know some of that pain, I do, though not as well as you do.

A life of four hour days is still a life, even if it does involve pain, self hatred and codependance. But there's still things that can be done around it, if you have a good support network of people who believe in you, care about you, and understand you. I mean...I know I'm just a 'net friend, but I still care, and I'm still around for talking if you want.
