Sometimes we can feel more lonely with the wrong person than being with no one.

Sounds like you also need someone that's understanding to talk to. After you see your general doctor, don't be afraid to seek out a counselor. They can help you deal with your family. Not fair they aren't supporting you!!

Good advice from Helen , I agree you need to seek help , sending hugs !

Have you been to your doctor and explained how much pain you are in. I'm sure they can help you with pain meds. Sometimes family and friends can be insensitive to what we are going through because to the outside world we look fine. We don't look any different so it's harder to understand. Go to your Dr or some other health professional and talk to them. We all understand what you are going through so let rip here if you need to. Take care

Milkdud, I feel for you that you are in so much pain. Hoping you will get help and peace of mind soon. Take care of yourself
