Need to vent

I'm really stressed. Usually since my jaw injury, my left eye feels twitchy. My right eye just twitched. I don't know what's really going on. I have no one to talk to.

My SOs back is so bad, he's getting not able to walk, even with a cane. So I've got some type of nerve muscle damage, and he can't walk.

Tomorrow I go to the hospital oral surgeon not covered by Medicare to discuss a problem I'm having with an upper left molar the same side my jaw popped, sending me into this expensive nightmare to begin with. I'm wrrd 32k worth of tmj dental work too control the tmj may be badly effected

I am getting to feel like life is spinning out of control and its causing me a lot of mental problems.

Have you tried quaaludes? They may help in the worst moments.

They sure did the trick for me, in a strictly recreational way, back in the day Hung on the beach all day (Ocean Park, ME). I worked 2nd shift, hit the beach, with friends, at 8AM, do a couple of ludes, and it was incredibly relaxing 7 hours. No Alcohol, I was actually charged up for work.

7. I am so sorry to hear of your worries. I have them, too. You expressed it perfectly "life spinning out of control"

At age 85 I feel more and more helpless as our democracy crumbles with Drump in the WH.

since I was a teenager 60 years ago. I was told it was a stress/anxiety reaction and not to worry about it.
Hopefully it's only that for you, too.

I cannot get to talk to an expert. I'm also having a headache otc does not stop. I know he's done something to my skull and facial nerves. I complain and they stare at me. One told me take my meds when i contacted them about chin cheek tingling. Its like symptoms move around. One day its cheek tingling. Next day headaches. Then I'll go wo eye twitching one day and next day its back. I cannot get a lawyer
