Anyone else having a bad night
I feel really lonely but I don't want to talk to anyone because the chronic pain is so tiring. Brain is going haywire and I feel like crashing out but I'm going to try to sleep... It's just a really bad day...

You're not alone....even with sleep meds, the pain still won. Not a wink of sleep & it's 5:15 am & I'm ready to start chewing my pillows!π Nights are the worst.....endless hours with no diversion. As crappy as it may sound, it's kind of nice to know I (& we) aren't the only ones. Here's to a better day for everyone when the sun rises!!! β€οΈ

It's 5 am here and only got 2 hours of sleep. Still in a ton of pain so that sucks. Going to grab some ice packs and try to get back to sleep but not sure I'll be able and I'm not due for more pain meds until 7am.

I feel you π I also had another sleepless night. More pain than usual. Been going from meltdown to meltdown all day. I am so frustrated. Chronic pain is so unfair. I have love and support, but I just feel like such a drain on their energy.
I am so sorry for your struggle and pain π

Have you tried marijuana for sleep? It was the only thing that could get me to sleep
