This blog is about the trials and tribulations of being a young woman with chronic pain and illnesses. I will talk about not only things going on now, but things that have happened in the past, the constant thoughts I have because of being a pain patient, and the stresses of living life day to day like this. My hope is that it will help other pain patients see they aren't alone, especially those who are in their early to mid twenties like me.

Don't Order the Headstone Yet
I'm sure most people didn't really notice, but a few did: I was offline from Friday evening to Tuesday afternoon. It wasn't because I wanted time away from the internet or because I went on a nice vacation.
Friday night I took 50 Tylenol PM in a suicide attempt.
I am extremely lucky to be alive. We got the ambulance there not long after I did it, and they gave me charcoal to drink. I was in the ICU for about 3 days with IVs and a catheter in. Then I was moved over to the psych ward on Monday and was there until Wednesday (so ~3 days in the ICU, and 3 in the Psych ward.)
I am going to be making a video to answer any questions people may have. I thought that would be better than just typing it up.
So, please put your questions here, or on Facebook or Google+ and I will be making that soon.
I am thankful to still be alive.
