Serious answer to this question about pain and suicide
I haven't been on for awhile due to my computer going shot. I had to send it off since it was under warrenty.
Also seem to be too busy at times with the kids, grandkids, and other things I get myself into.
I was talking to a friend today about the RSD. She is having a horrible time with it and me, I am seeing a flareup due to the weather change. I am not on any meds at this time for pain but I have them here if I need them.
I remember on braintalk, people seemed to be more open and out there about things going on with them compared to here. We just all seemed to become a part of a family on there that bonded so closely that we all still talk by phone, email, facebook and so on.
One of the things we saw on there were people that did commit suicide due to the RSD and that may have brought out more of a connection for us.
When I talked to Diana today, I told her that according to the pain I go through, and what I feel when I am at my worst, there has to be more people that do think about suicide when they are at their worst. I had a day like that yesterday. My Dr. knows my situation and I can call him anytime and he will help me so I know I have that support.
What I want to ask is what percentage of people with the RSD do you believe thinks about this with what they are going through. To me RSD is hell on earth. I feel if more people were honest they would be more open about this and I think too they fear what would happen to them if they said this to their Dr. or Psychologist. I don't fear it due to my Dr. understanding me but do others feel this way?
Am I mistaken about this or not?
