My elder daughter and I are so alike that we always fall out .. she's the one who will irritate me and I will grumble at.

It must be extra hard for family and friends when they are with someone who is in real bad pain all the time .. and taking drugs that alter your personality and you can get withdrawal sympstoms from even after 2 hours after missing a dose ..

How do your family and friends cope with you when you're at you're snappiest .. or when you're crying for absolutely nothing? What can they do?

They don't know that this is "normal" for sufferers of chronic pain and I really think there should be support for them.

There may even be one on this forum somewhere, but as this is the only place I come to, perhaps if there is, someone can direct my post there.

Thank you xxx
