In Reply to: 24 and pissed off from pain. please help me. posted by angie lacefield on July 22, 2003 at 19:51:50:
:Hi there I just want to write and tell you that I feel for you. I am just 28 recently and I got this horrible disease (to me at least and you) when my dentist at the time yanked my jaw too far. I have been suffering for 8 years and it sucks. Nobody I know understands either I am scared of depression and losing my man who I love with everything i am. I am scared I won't get fixed. I cry almost everyday. I am on sleeping pills just to fall asleep. They make me disoriented and this tmj makes me totally unable to focus on anything more than a couple of seconds. I suffer anxiety and like you too am pissed off about it. But just hang in there life can't just be this it has to be better. I pray for you !!!!!!!!!
: i am 24 and have suffered from this since i was in an accident at 14. at first it was just occasional aches and tension but has progressed into a nightmare i cannot wake from. Over the past few years i have finally began to understand tmj better which has helped me to deal with my symptoms. but as some of you may know, sometimes(most of the time)it is unbearable torture. the pain and pressure, the tension and tightness,the feeling as if your going to just lose control. i can't live this way anymore. this is not living, it's dying, slowly. and i just can't let it get the best of me any more. no one has ever really understood my pain or why i keep to myself sometimes so my pain doesn't bite them as well. i was shocked to hear of others who can relate and hopefully help. where are you and can u please come out and play?
