Yes...I live with chronic pain and I think if I had to live without my medicine Id give up because My life in this pain is unbearable and 24/7.

I hurt. Everyday, every night I can't eat without wanting to vomit from my pain and therefore don't eat much. My spine is on fire and just...hurts...all the time. I try to continue with my engineering degree. I had aspirations do go to grad school, but now I can't even go to class for more than a couple of hours a day. I am 22 and I don't even know how to take my first step in life. Do I get a job? Who would hire someone who can't work? How will I live? When I am trying to sleep at night, I pray to a god that I haven't believed in since I was 8 to have mercy on me. Sometimes the next morning I wake up and think "shit, not this again." I can't help but cry typing that. Shouldn't I be thankful for everyday I get? My grandma thinks I am selfish because I want to "give up." Honestly, thinking that the next fifty years of my life will be exactly like this is enough makes feel very hopeless.

yep I have nerve damage and have had an ulnar nerve transposition, if I could have lifted my gun I don't think I owuld be here
it is in the top 3 of painful surgeries
women have said it is worse that child birth, even contractions ebb and rise
deep nerve pain is like setting you skin of fire and it doesn't ever let up

Yes, I have. Severe pain will sometimes make you think death may be a better option! It's as difficult watching someone you love experiencing that kind of pain, as it is experiencing it yourself.

Yes when I had a test and I was allergic to the die.. One hell of a headache..

Yes. Ulcerative colitis. I was miserable.
by One&&Only,Erin(: on December 6th, 2009
Oh yes I have.
The first time I remember being in the E.R. was when I was in a car wreck. My jaw was broken(Now remember folks, I was about 9 when this happened) and my spine was cracked.

I haven't...and I thank God for that.+5

Yes. When my knee was shattered by shrapnel in 1991. +4 Icy

I've experienced two excruciating pains in my life...one was an infected tooth that resulted in a root canal and the other was a middle ear infection and in each case I remember thinking "I cannot stand the pain..I want to go sleep and not wake up until the pain goes away"! But to actually think "I want to die"? No..I cannot remember ever thinking that! :)

Yes. I was eleven years old and well this is going to sound so stupid, but hey I was a kid. I was at an airport in North Carolina. My brother dropped his toy while we were on a moving sidewalk, so my stupid butt decided to pick it up for him. Well in the process of doing that for him, my head got stuck in between a pole and the moving sidewalk handrail. It literally suffocated me, and I momentarily died. I was brought back. When I got to the hospital my lip had been detached from my gum and was just kind of hanging there, the rubber had burnt some of the skin off my neck and lower face. It hurt like hell, I seriously wanted to die. But now I am glad I didn't, but it really hurt. But pain meds are a blessing :)+3

I feel like that sometimes even now. I guess AB is good for something after all.
by OZe on October 7th, 2009
I once got food poisoning that made me extremely naseaus for days. Standing up even for one second made me vomit. I did not hope for death because I knew it would pass. But if I had to live the rest of my life like that, I would have rather died.
by Merriment on October 7th, 2009
No, but I have a high pain tolerance and low death wish.
I'm not ruling it out as an option for my old age though!
by Heather108 on October 7th, 2009
No, not even close.
Just lucky I'm thinking.

You hvae never had kidney stones if you have to ask this question. When I had them if I could have moved it would have been right off a bridge.
It is the worst pain you can imagine, I am a guy and trust me the way your testicales feel, if the doctor would have told me they had to remove them I would have asked him for any kind of cutting tool, and done it myself.
And not even thought twice about it, now every time I get any pain near my kidneys I get ready to take some pain meds.
by Anonymous on October 7th, 2009
No, luckily. I did hurt so bad once in hopes that I would pass out because I couldn't handle it, but I didn't want to die.

I'm hypersensitive and suffer pain in so many ways. One thing I suffer from is IBS, which can get so painful, the only thing that would take the pain away would be morphine. Being hypersensitive has so many downsides. Painkillers in the form of tablets and medicine don't work. Also, one time I had to have a tooth removed, they said they were going to sedate me and remove it. But the sedation had no effect on me whatsoever, so the dentist just started pulling, despite the fact that my mum had to hold me down and I was screaming at the top of my lungs. It traumatized me badly and I'm still afraid of going in to have dental work done. Because the sedation didn't work on me, every time I need dental work done, it has to be under general anaesthetic at the hospital. But that's not the only thing the hypersensitivity affects. Menstrual pain would be ten times worse. A headache would make me want to scream. But the country I live in doesn't help me much. The last time I was in the ER, screaming with a headache, they tried giving me 2 paracetamol tablets! The pains I suffer almost daily are a lot to cope with. It's either a nightmare I may never wake up from or a joke that should've ended a long time ago. =(
OUCH! Why did you bite my fingers?!
