Don't feel bad. You shouldn't. Your jiggling stomach is a pesky annoyance that you'd rather not have. My dependence on Serzone for sleep is one I'd rather not have.
I have insomnia, and I'm virtually cured with my med. But I know how it feels to sleep one hour in four days. I have been there, and I will go back some time, though I wish it weren't so. And while it may not be as serious as cutting myself or being so depressed I can't get out of bed or raise my child, it's mine.
Over the summer, I was having a migraine. I sat in a rocking chair on a friend's porch (I was vacationing in another state), when a car pulled up. The couple (our friend's brother and his wife and child) got out and greeted me. The wife asked if I was okay, and I told her it was just an aura migraine, but I had to close my eyes for a few minutes.
Later I learned that she was a four-year breast cancer survivor. And here I am complaining about a migraine.
Well, our headaches hurt. They are not brain tumors or cancer, but they hurt. And they are ours.
