Hi RSD ME,

Sometimes we just have to withdraw from the endless, insufferable battle of trying to make our families understand what we are going through. It is worse when they constantly dump their minor issues, which are blown up out of all proportion, on us. My adult daughter is 'dying' from a cold at the moment and is incapable of functioning, moaning that she cannot do things. I am being hit by 6-8 hours of Cluster Headache Attacks every day, yet I cannot mention them and there is no modification of behaviour to try to help me.

You vent away, we are always here to listen and understand.

Dave.
