I've only been on the list for 2 days and already I'm wondering if it a flame throwing contest?
I'm not looking for sympathy,drugs,or a whinning board, Just maybe a suggestion for some relief from this "white hot sword" that been stuck inside my every thought for the past 31 years?
One of the books my mother gave me at the beginning of this was on Indian Philosophy, one of the articals on reoccurring pain stated that when you suffer intense reoccuring pain the fastest method to abate is to mentally force it to the highest apex on the pain scale as fast as possible,thus allowing for a faster abatement. Works for me along with the cold Therapy.
I live in the 9 to 10 range daily and I can tell you attitude is %90 of the way you feel and appear to others.
Give me something real to work with and I'll try to do the same.
Also Thanks a gazillion to everyone that made my entry friendly-Susan,Paco,Bob John and all! John
