Phillipa, I think pain taxes people incredibly. It incites anxiety and depression and fatigue. Like today. A lovely day. I awake in a decent mood. Slept well enough. Within one hour of being up, the pressure of being upright just becomes insistent. So I manage it. All the while I'm making the effort to stay engaged with whatever task or pleasure at hand, I'm really multi-tasking. All day.

however, this is a transitional state, because I am going to find a way to heal what I can and then medicate what remains. I feel the same about AD's.If it's anxiety and fr*ckin SP and ptsd, those same old fears, by golly, I am going to work them. This is a big attitude improvement for me.
