I Need to Rant

The pain has invited my old friend depression and that shithead has made itself right at home. Now I can’t stop crying. My stupid face is all red and puffy and I need to get it together. I’m hiding out in a conference room right now with a giant wet wad of toilet paper I grabbed from the ladies room. It’s sort of ridiculous enough to be cheered up by the sight of it.

Having had horrible back pain years ago, I can relate. Although it isn't easy, try to distract yourself as much as possible. That sometimes worked for me. Although one should never mix medication with alcohol...

I joke about the wine... I don’t drink much. Glad your back pain went away 👍🤗 @sciguy18

@Fallflower I don't drink much either, but it does help every once in a while. I still do have back pain on occasion (especially when sitting for long periods), but it is tolerable.
