I think all of us are become irritated & frustrated & just plain easily especially as to how we look now. Most of us have gained weight I think. I can't do the walk thingie anymore & I hate how I look now. Just a few years ago I wore a size 9. Now I am a size 18. I HATE IT!!! When I started Lyrica I gained about 25lbs in one month. I have lost about 15lbs of it, but I still look AWFUL. I look bloated.... ..ICK.....*LOL*

What he said was thoughtless in the fact that between meds, pain, & just not being able to work out now we are all super sensitive about how we look. I know I am. Hubby stills says I look GOOD to him. But he too has gained about 30lbs. He doesn't have RSD, but has Diabetes, High BP, & a painfully bad back that affects his legs too so he can't walk very far either to exercise.

But also due to certain meds, pain & more pain our anger levels are extremely low so it doesn't take much to set us off. I know I have very little patience now days. I become irritated quickly & even irrational :ack (this should look like a frazzled kitty, if not it no longer works *sighing* darn) at times & I can become a raving idiot easily *LOL* Somtimes I can hate myself because of this. Seems like I am constantly telling everyone it is me, not necessarily them at all. Then I get ticked off that I even have to say that all the time to people. I shouldn't have to explain allllllllll the time right??? They should all get IT by now right???? *LOL* see what I mean about being irrational?? *LOL* geesh.

So it is ok to take some of the blame from all the thoughtless people we live with or know *ROFL* but don't take all the blame. They really should get IT by now....

Well I have rattled off enough here I guess
