Hi,
I'm sorry that you are going through this. I have TN as well and it is one of the most difficult journeys I have ever been on.
Ofcourse it makes me depressed. The pain wears me right down. I have been in and out of dire pain a few times with it already with flare ups. As soon as I get the pain under control I am my old self again. I immediately feel normal.
The pain is incessant and very isolating.
TN is very unpredictable. Pains come and go. Patterns emerge and then change.
Are you on medication?
There is a separate section on this website for Trigeminal Neuralgia. If you post there it will get noticed easier.
