With a chattering
anxiety
A rattle pill-filled
state
the brain-numbing
chemicals
change the look
on
my face
That’s just
on the
outside
inside
it gets bad
Outside
is just a
cosmetic push
Inside –
you can’t change
sad…

I know exactly what you mean. I have no choice but to be a medication that I rather not take. But without them, I could die or suffer immensely. I’m thankful that we have medications to keep us going. Medicines would not exist if they weren’t necessary.

Kait, those of us who live on medication know exactly what you’re saying, I find that the only thing that works to numb the pain is medication. I’m not advocating it’s use for recreational purposes just without it I wouldn’t cope day to day. Some days I feel that I should up the dosage but know what that leads to. Love and best wishes to you as always my dear friend. Have as pain free a week as possible without becoming so doped up you can’t cope with life xoxo

Oh Dave exactly! I’m on and have been on, some horrific meds – I hate taking pills as it so affects my writing…but I would be dead without them – sometimes I have wondered why I open my mouth to chuck them in though! I have been put on and weaned myself off so many medications that I doubt I would have a problem giving up anything 🙂 The only way I can make sense or have purpose out of what has happened to me is with my writing… Because I fight the meds I end up in some bad ways with pain which is just a constant anyway, but then I end up in a bit of hell and have to take things like morphine to shut me down for a bit! (Nigh on impossible but it gives me a good run for the money) lol – I’ve learned to make light of all of these things otherwise I would just hang myself!!! Hate being a burden too… feeling the love my friend, wishing you the same and enjoy the shaky nod to Spring you must surely be getting now ‘cos it’s fricken cold over here!! 🙂 xoxo

It’s still fricken cold here, but the daffodils and crocuses (croci?) are out. If only we could take a pill to make us better, something that would work with our natural bodies and cure completely whatever is causing the pain, how great would that be? Well worth the price xoxo

Apparently I’m taking it! LOL – but not working so well 🙂 Oooo I wonder if it is Croci? I like the way that word looks 🙂 It’s colder at night and early morning now – and if there’s wind it’s definitely a chilly one – but still gorgeous on most days 🙂 Get to put my little bunnies outside in the sunshine 🙂
There are so many researchers working to help this kind of thing – nerves, neurological stuff, so hopefully soooooooooN! xoxo

Fingers crossed it will be sooner rather than later. All we can do is keep hoping and praying. The scientists are working miracles these days in every other field so hopefully they will come up with a wonder drug that will correct the DnA links to cure us, xoxo with love and wishes for a pain free future.

It’s really sad, how so many people become trapped into addiction, yet there are so many that need it to function in later years due to serious conditions. Sometimes, I wonder if we would be better, not as medicated as our society is.

Oh absolutely! Suffering with nerve damage myself, I’ve been put on so many medications and on large amounts. I am constantly trying to wean myself off them – my pain, unfortunately is permanent and inoperable, after a little while I realise why I have to take them….as much as I loathe it. I use as many natural techniques as I can but would be lost/dead without meds – but as the poem indicates – it changes who you are, gives you more things to hate about your life and more reasons to be a cavebear! 🙂

Have you looked into acupuncture I’ve heard it’s been known to help with nerve damage. My knowledge is very basic and would require plenty of homework. But maybe it would be worth a look.

Oh thank you so much – unfortunately I’ve done everything possible – have dealt with pain for 18 yrs but has got seriously worse due to back surgery nearly 3 yrs ago….I even went into a decompression chamber to try to calm the damaged nerves but no luck…you become tolerant to a large amount, just sometimes you want to get a gun! lol 🙂 bless your cotton sox for caring, thank you 🙂
