Hi gang, Haven't posted for awhile but have been keeping up. I have been chronic now for 5 years no let up at all. I also remember when things were different on the board. I remember all the support I felt and it helped just posting and knowing there were caring people on the otherside. I know they are still out there but I see less and less talk about the problem of clusters and more and more people vs. others ideals and values. So many attacks. I feel strange saying this but migraine sufferers are so very different in all aspects of their headaches. In the world of the demon that we all encounter life becomes a living nightmare. Days on end with no sleep. Family members in pain because they cant help. Frustation with the medical community for just plain not knowing. In the Insanity we know as cluster headaches it was always nice to have a place of my own. A refuge where I could escape, if only for a short time to a place where people understood THE PAIN!!!! Sometimes that in itself was enough. I dont want to belittle migraine headaches I'm quite sure they are not fun at all. I'm being selfish here but I want something for me. Everything in life becomes ten fold harder with the demon. this board is a safe zone. i dont want to talk migraines and I dont want to bicker (although I know thats part of the process) between each other.It seems that the bigger this board gets the more mixed it becomes. Well thanks for the time. Sleep to everyone. Oh and one more thing. Anthony, you really should post using the same name all the time. Its hard to keep track. Also if you read the posts of the 23rd Michelle doesn't want to speak to you. LET IT GO!!!
