    No Diagnosis,5 years of pain, so depressed

    I was worried about SS thinking if I could go to school full-time then I could work full-time but I submitted my grades, I failed 3 out of 4 classes two semesters ago. I also get accommodations through the disabled student program like being able to turn in assignments electronically if I have a...

    No Diagnosis,5 years of pain, so depressed

    Hi terbaer, I go to a therapist once a week for about 3 years now. I used to see a psychiatrist once a month that I loved, the first one I ever trusted. He even pushed and told social security that am disabled through mental illness as well (Major Depressive Disorder, PTSD, and panic disorder)...

    No Diagnosis,5 years of pain, so depressed

    Moe, it sounds like we are one in the same as far as trauma. I've had so much bad stuff happen but the one that terrifies most to this day is, I don't know how to say it, but to me sounds less traumatic compared to the other things I've gone through, but it was the only time I guess my life was...

    Does anyone take narcotic pain meds, and what do you think of them

    I take 60 mg of Kadian (Morphine) twice a day I get no high off of it like many people who think you do. Because its a pill and not IV it doesn't affect you the same way. The way of delivery, orally, you don't get as much of the medicine in your system. I also take Percocet 10/325 and cut them...

    No Diagnosis,5 years of pain, so depressed

    I am new here. I am sure at some point I will be given the Fibromyalgia diagnosis. I started becoming sick at age 30 when my daughter was around 4. I was a single parent from the beginning and life was great. I had a high paying job, we needed for nothing. She is my life. It kills me now that we...
