Loaded
I wrote this during brunch yesterday. It was the first day in seven years that I wasn’t filled to the brim with medications. Long story short I spent many years getting misdiagnosed for what has now been fixed over the last few weeks. I was originally going to write a lengthy article, but this just leapt out of my head. For anyone dealing with chronic pain, please know there are others out there that are sharing your struggle. I hope that everyone gets as lucky as I recently have to get in front of the right doctor, and to have the life changing experience of going from being in pain everyday, to having it start to go away in what seems like overnight compared to how long it persisted. Stay strong for yourself. Stay strong for your family. It does get better.

To my best friend
Dearest best friend, I had the worst migraine yesterday. It lasted a full 24 hours and I could not keep anything down. I've also been severely depressed off and on but I am working through it with therapy. I can't wait to talk to you on the phone again my dearest.
