Liz, i don't see anything particularly out of line with your post. the other posters were just as 'flaring', if not more so. the whole thread was closed for good reason. Work is a touchy subject, and being a 'wage slave' is not good for anyone. feeling forced to spend your life in hard labor for very little reward is soul-crushing, add the constant pain, and it's no wonder you flare, physically and emotionally~
