[QUOTE="NoKindOfSusie, post: 1663827, member: 441787"] I think that's exactly it, I don't feel like me any longer. I feel like a ghost. And then people sit around going "oh, don't resent it." Oh yes it's great, it's destroying every part of my life, everything I do for a living, making it impossible to do any of the things I used to do for fun. I love it. It's great. Yes I would love to spend a week doing everything I want, but I would not enjoy it as I would know how much damage it is doing. I am not able to exercise anyway which is one of the things I most want to do. I would be lying in the gutter after ten minutes. Normally I wouldn't even BE here typing this on a sunday morning, I'd be miles away running. Then you get told "oh it's a good idea to stay in shape. I WOULD LOVE TO. It's absolutely horrible, being told to do it and desperately wanting to do it but knowing you'll just fall over. Sitting here slowly gaining weight, desperate to go run it off, being TOLD to go and do that, and it is totally impossible. So yes it is wonderful I don't resent it and I am completely psychologically healthy. What am I supposed to say. How am I supposed to feel. [/QUOTE]
