overwhelmed

[4kidzmom]

I'm feeling so overwhelmed these days........sometimes I feel my busy life is more than enough for a healthy person to handle, much less someone dealing with IC. I keep my IC close.....don't share it with many people....but most days by the time I fall into bed,I am in so much pain, I cannot sleep and by that time pain meds take awhile to work. I am sure that my family wishes that they had the "pre IC mom" back, I wish I could have her back too (lol). I'm just so tired of being tired and tired of dealing with pain all the time......sorry to vent....it hasn't been a good week for me....too busy, too little sleep, tired of the constant of IC.

I hope today is a better day. Chronic health problems stink sometimes.

Feel better and know we are here.

Hugs,

Sorry you are having a bad week. From your name I take it you have 4 children? That alone is a job and when you don't feel good and in pain would be harder yet. I do know how you feel. I always think why can I not still do the things I used to? Or I will think of how I wished I could. Like you I don't share any of my IC with people around me anymore. Much easier that way but I do think it makes it harder. Are you able to take the pain meds all the time? I found if I keep a steady pace with taking the pain meds the pain doesn't get quit so bad. If I forget to take one then it seems harder for the med to work. I hope you get to feeling better so you are not in so much pain. We have all vented at some point so you are not alone in this. :grouphug:
