yet, i get this, it's a weird thought about 'wasted time' i know its weird
 
:doh: Yes, it is... seems that way... but maybe it's what I need to re-energize myself or something.... :dunno: I'll call it an experiment to make myself feel better, in the name of SCIENCE! :D
 
I am sorry LoveBlue, Reba, and Steinhauer
 
My left arm has had 6 surgeries on it. Last one 1980 something. My arm has been great since then but recently I am losing feeling in my grip. I just got through picking up about 500 pistachios when the open can hit the kitchen floor.

Neurological illness really sucks. I first decided it was that awful when my grip was so poor I had to give up taking my dogs for walks.

It has been downhill since then, too...
 
Why do I live while so many good people die? Why can't I just die and be done with these feelings and let good and valuable people live? I'm worthless sack of human shit.

It does suck Botti. Neurological and then I have Muscular issues. I can totally relate about losing your grip. I can't lift my right arm above shoulder height and my left arm is numb. Washing my hair is getting to be a challenge. Then my knees and breaking my leg, OMG my poor body. My nerve issues started in my early 20's after my little car was hit by a big rig truck on Christmas Eve. So I have had problems my whole life. Dystonia started 20 years ago. I have had over 30 surgeries. Trying my best to stay active but I can't do very much otherwise I pay dearly for it. I would like to blame it all on getting old but it's been with me forever. Oh well not much we can do about it. Stay positive, laugh, enjoy the good days. That's life. Having a supportive spouse makes all the difference in the world. Oh and AD friends who listen when we need to vent, big plus!!!!

You can't trade one human life for another. I really hope you are getting some good help with your depression. Life is short and we must make the best of every day. There are a lot of people fighting to stay alive with all sorts of terrible diseases. For you to think life is worthless is very very sad to me.

I doubt very much that you are a "worthless sack of human shit". I hope you can start counting your blessings instead of dwelling on what might be some negatives.

If you need someone to talk to you can always PM me. I don't know if I can help but I will listen to you.

One of the worst panic attacks to date and I can't seem to get in contact with a counselor. I can't seem to make myself leave the room, go to class or even eat anything and I don't know what to do. I almost left class yesterday due to anxiety and just barely made it through the day.

It could be your body trying to adjusting to the hormones pills you're taking . Did you call you doctor , there should be someone on call on the weekend .

Feeling bad today. My right foot is burning and swollen, and the toes keep cramping under. I want to go shoe shopping today but it might not be possible. I've been walking a mile or more each day but the pain is getting worse. I hope new walking shoes will help but I'm afraid it's just the Parkinson's getting worse. I'm very disappointed. I had hoped increasing exercise would help but I seem to be getting worse. Doctor already increased my med's dosage but that didn't help much. I thought I was supposed to have a few good years left but now I'm beginning to wonder. :(

I hope the new shoes will help you some.

I have to save up all my questions for my next appointment (maybe another month).

Now two of my toes on my right foot have been numb for a few days. I wish my body would quit throbbing; I can't seem to get much done. It's getting harder to even post.

I don't feel old mentally; I don't want to lay around. I've got a lot I want to do. It's very discouraging, and TCS deserves better.

I shouldn't whine. I'm sorry, I know other people have serious problems, too. I know you miss your walks with your dog. :hug:

Whoever says old age is "just a number" obviously hasn't yet experienced it. Physical old age stinks.

It's ok to whine a little. You are going through a difficult adjustment period, and it isn't something you do very often.
