      I know how you feel, it doens't sound strange or weird it sounds normal and I think you know that and that's why you havent acted irrationally. Keep up the good work just try and talk more

      From MystkWintr January 28

      Gosh, your story sounds so familiar. The facade we put on so that others don't know what pain we feel. Talking about it and DS and reaching out to other people with the same disorder helps tremendously. Killng yourself is not an option, It is just an easy way out. You seem too strong a person, going by the articulate way you wrote, would be a void in other's lives. People you haven't met won't benifit from who you are. Your family and friends will suffer knowing they couldn;t help because you put on your facade. I know..I do the same. HUGE hugs to you. You are not alone. I feel the pain also.

      Treatments

      Cyclobenzaprine Somewhat Helpful
      Nothing gets rid of the intense spasms completely, but it does help them to abate.
      Heat Somewhat Helpful
      It comforts me, and sometimes helps with pain when I relax.
      Lyrica Considering
      Morphine Somewhat Helpful
      Percocets do help with pain. I have the 10/325's and sometimes, I can take one. The most I have ever taken in a six hour time span to get ANY relief from the spasms was 10 of the suckers.
