It appears to me that you're beating your marriage to death as if your wife wouldn't be there for you if you let her! Going off your meds all at once, cold turkey is dangerous!! Get to a doctor and get some help!! This isn't something any of us would choose for ourselves or our familiy, but it happened, so get over it! Find something that makes you laugh, and get to laughing and start living with a positive attitude. The adage "laughter is the best medicine" is true, real amd important for those whose life has been altered. I know I don't sound very sympathetic, but we've all been where you are, and we've made the choice to live to the best we can.......you can make that same choice! and have you asked your wife if she wants to be a part of life? Your letter sounded like it's all about you, without letting her in, meanwhile things are worse for her than for you because it appears you chose to shut her out!! Sorry if this letter sounds tough, or mean or whatever, but I'm on this tm list to get support and to sup- port those who want to get better. I pray that you'll get help immediately!! janh
Have anyone of you ever wondered what it would be like without this? I've put so much pressure on my family that I now know what loneliness feels like. I haven't seen my wife for months and I prefer it this way. I have so much pain and it's mine and mine alone to bear. I have fibromyalgia, vasculitis and TM.....and I just quit pain meds one week ago....just to see what it all feels like again. I'm suffering from withdrawal symtoms of valium, nuerontin, cymbalta and seroquel all at the same time. I'm just about given up hope.....what's the use...I can't even feel the earth underneath my feet anyway, with or without them. I've decided to live until death with the pain and the agony....be it alone or with my shadow. I love my wife too much to see her cry again for me in a hospital bed...so I've decided to go it alone....no cure...no questions...no more burden to my loved ones. I now live alone and try to get by each day....one day at a time, until the end.....I give up! Sorry to all of you who have been there before for me.
