st8arrow ok. enough is enough... Forgive me but, even though you have tried so hard to help me I just have to ask... Why is it that all you psychological people are so thouraly convinced that a person with psychological problems is not capable of having physical problems. I am soooo tired of everyon...

Sooo.... If all is well with you, why are you on a depression website? Are you just an angel sent here to help? I think you may be because you have helped me immensly when no one else would listen.

From the bottom of my heart, Thank you

Funny story. Reminds me of when I had my root canal and they had to keep stopping because I was making jokes and laughing so hard. My heart rate has been between 120 and 150 for 2 months now. All Dr's know and don't address it. You know what? In my selfishness, I have never asked how you are doing. ...

(((st8arrow))) I know you are trying to help. I have spent the last 25 years seeing psych dr's and therapists. It hasn't worked. Yes, I had a horrible childhood. Everything that could be done to a child was done to me. Follow that with 2 really bad husbands... However, I have had a fabulous husband ...

Just curious


I am laying down relaxing and my heart rate is 148. Is that ok?

Haven't eaten since Sunday morning. Dr had prescribed Zophran for this but the insurance only approved 8 pills a month. Now am in so much pain I can't walk without my walker. Can barely make it to the bathroom. Passed out twice yesterday. Hit my head hard. Too tired to even function and no longer ca...

The "lost the will to live" part is why I spent 3 days on suicide watch. Just tried to make a chiro appt. He won't see me. referred me to neuro. Neuro's have taken me off pain meds. Pain clinic stopped treating me last year. Tried to make appt with first neuro. He is out of the country for...

The pain is now constant and more than I can bear. Neuro just took me off all pain meds, even Excedrin. I have lost the will to live. I have lost the will to fight. Just spent 3 days in hospital on suicide watch. No how to play the system though and was able to get out. Don't worry. I can't do anyth...

Don't want to whine anymore. Going to bed. If I am very, very lucky I won't awake up.

fingers getting weaker.

Depakote is actually an epileptic medication that is also used for bipolar (me) and migraines (also me). I appreciate the humor. You are always good for a laugh. Not laughing much today. In way too much pain. Maybe I'm feeling sorry for myself but can't help it right now. Hope you have a great day. ...

Thank you, will try that.

Good news and bad news. The good news is he may be able to get me down to about 5 migraines a month. Bad news is, they will never go away. Yes, they can cause permanent damage and increase chance of stroke. I have to make a complete lifestyle change. He also told me not to take the migraine pain med...
