I can relate to that today... I'm feeling pretty bummed out today because of this stupid PN. It has really screwed up my life royally.

I never would have thought even five years ago that I would be on a Board sharing with people about chronic pain! I was a "Positive" person. I never dwelled on the negative. I thought that the more you thought about it and focused on it, the more it ate away at you. I avoided negative people in my life.

NO WHINING was my motto! It still is as much as I can tolerate it!

But here I am, whining and listening to whining. But not for the sake of whining, it's for the sake of understanding, for the sake of learning about what I can do to 'FIX' or at least TOLERATE what makes me want to whine.

Thank you for your deep thoughts and your sharing.
