I didn’t mean to get so emotional

Honestly, guys CRPS is awful. It is known as The Suicide Disease. What this little compilation of tiktok showed, to me, a sufferer with no support system, no pain management, and worst of all—living with someone who believes all I say is a lie to ruin her image (go narcissitic mothers yay!) or that I am completely making up this disease... I am not alone. I might cry myself to sleep because the pain is so intense (or I might drink a ton a ton a ton of alochol so I can black out and try to sleep) where I can’t step without feeling my entire right side of my body is in excuriating pain...

I’m trying to get better. I’m slowly starting to walk around my house without my cane, I have some confidence in standing without my cane for ten minutes! (I timed myself) What I need is to be able to walk at least short distances without a cane. Remission is possible but it takes a very very long time. I may just have to learn to cope with the pain, and being on here, talking with you, watching videos/to shows/interviews of Sarah help me. What also helps is the patience and understanding of my crush, who without prompting, asked me if I was okay with walking the four flights of stairs to her apartment when I come visit. I’ve never had someone be that genuine. That kind. To anyone else who is suffering with CRPS... we can get through this. Look at me! I was able to get amazing grades in my first semester as a mortuary student! I got licensed as a crematory services provider! I still have my cane (my mother actually hid it from me so I have to try and find it again)

If there is anyone with this disorder, please message me! I am looking to start an online messaging group here!

There's something weird about being suicidal but not actually wanting to kill yourself. Its like you know you always have this exit button just waiting to be pressed but you know there is no reentry at this venue we call life. Maybe its just the fear of missing out that makes you stay longer. Maybe it's the hope of better days that makes you stay longer.

Whatever it is, I'm happy you've stayed. ❤

We dont think...

As an addict speaking from my experience. I found that it starts by choice. We choose to use for various reasons. My reason was to cope with my PTSD. Using numbed those thoughts and helped me sleep.

As an addict the choice then becomes a progressive disease.

I used to say "how is it a disease when people choose that life?". I was one of those.

Well let me explain.

Addiction is a disease because it progresses. Slowly it gets worse and spreads, you can say. It spreads within you consuming you.

We say "I would never do that" but guess what? Eventually you will get there. Eventually you will start getting behind on bills. Eventually you will start pawning or selling your stuff. You will progress to stealing and eventually selling yourself.

I haven't gotten that far "yet" because I won't say I never will. I am in recovery but that doesn't mean I can't fall and fall harder than I did before.

I am an addict and I will always be an addict.

Anyways I am rambling.

This post is for those who say stuff like "Think about your children" or "I would never get that bad".

From my experience, my addiction came first. I knew the consequences but my addiction had a hold of me. It consumed me. I knew what I was doing wasn't right but the only thing on my mind was using.

It hurts to see addicts and their families because I know it hurts them too. They know what they are doing and believe me they wish they could quit too but they have yet to get to their breaking point.

Once they reach that point and get help then things will get better. But like they say all addiction gets us is institutions, jail or death. The lucky ones get the first two.

Please have empathy for those in active addiction. Let them know they can get help. Let them know you are there. That is all that can be done.

Tunnel vision

I've come to realize the meaning behind tunnel vision in addiction.

We have a one track mind. Once using is in our head that is all we see. We are focused only on that.

So I had a few drinks the other day with some old friends who are down to visit.

I started to get drunk and my one friend decided they wanted to use. My mind went to work it was tuned in to only that one thing.

Ultimately I went to bed. I didn't use. And out of it I came to some realizations in myself.

Thankfully I chose to go to sleep. But that tunnel vision was hard to break.
