Such days really do make me feel alone too, and then even tho I have the sweetest partner and the best older son around. They are kind but sometimes I can hear in their voice 'o here we go again'.
Its just hard to be truly honest these days. Folks say they want it but then when you are well that's the last you hear of em for a while. Sigh.

Boy if that ain't the truth !!! Nobody REALLY wants to hear how you really feel when they ask. Even the closest people to you. They get tired of it. Especially if it's something they can't see. Like back pain. Or any " invisible " pain.
I got totally abandoned by everyone because they " shoot the sick horses don't they ? " I just do the best I can on a daily basis. It just sucks waking up in the morning and wishing you hadn't . I'm worth something , if not to others then to myself. This is my daily mantra.
Hang tough.
