Braaaain! (Also: Mac complains about something that's actually worth complaining about, for once)

If I haven't mentioned it, I'm really not a big fan of my brain. We're coming close to about two years now of me basically living in a pain-coma, and even before then it was vastly disrupting my life. It is incredibly, incredibly frustrating. Most of the time when I'm not posting, it's because I feel absolutely miserable and am incapable of doing

You're not a tool. It sucks that your brain is hurting you so bad, and I hope it stops soon.

There's nothing worse than the cure being just about as bad as the disease. My sister is in the same bind (she has chronic facial nerve pain) and she doesn't have any idea what the solution is.

I hope for both your sakes that new and better drugs make an appearance soon.

Aw! Feel free to vent anytime. I hope things ease up for you soon.

My sympathies. I'm going through a period too where pain is a more or less constant companion, albeit at nowhere near the level you're suffering, so I have some small sense of where you're coming from. One of the things that surprises me is how *tiring* it is to just be in pain. I'm sure you're right about the constant advances in medications and I do hope they come up with something that works for you soon! Hang in there.

Wishing you health and happiness

It massively sucks that you aren't doing so well. Not just because you're an awesome writer and I crave your work, either. I've suffered from Bipolar disease/manic depression since I hit puberty. It's not physically painful like migraines, but it still makes living difficult.

Here's me wishing you well. I hope they get something figured out for your sake and for everyone else who suffers from illnesses such as this.

hugs,
