@GABAROO13 @JoeAllenNewman It’s the same as the marijuana argument. I’m glad that people are finding alternatives that work for them, but Kratom doesn’t help a lot of people.
It did almost nothing for my pain and made me violently ill to the point that I could barely keep down water.
It’s not a cure all
@ResisterDoggie @HilaryKimMorden @josh_collard2 Kratom made me so sick I couldn’t eat. Every time I tried to take it I could barely keep down water.
I kept trying because my pain levels were so terrible and some days I just needed something to take me from a 10 to a 9
It barely works for many people.
@josh_collard2 Warn them? Who picked that?
Don’t you care that your friend is living in serious pain?
Also... why do you think you’re some sort of savior? Our doctors, the nurses, the pharmacist, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, the news, the paper, police reports, ... (on forever) all warn us
This thread made me cry.
It so easy to feel lost and lonely and unlovable.
This thread is one of the best things on Twitter right now. There is so much love and hope... I’m overwhelmed by it
Hi. Weird request but fuck it:
If you're disabled and in a happy, loving relationship, would you mind sharing a photo of you and your partner with me? Bonus points for wheelchair users & LGBT folk
Brain is finding it SO hard to imagine being loved in my chair.
Feel free to RT
@Surgeon_General @WRBethesda @ASALifeline No they didn’t.
They woke up from invasive surgery and received no relief from pain what so ever?
This can’t be real. What kind of doctor would let their patients suffer needlessly?
@JSuzy100@painadvocateAR Many doctors won’t prescribe #chronicpain patients the life saving medication they need.
We need the right to find doctors willing to help us.
@speakingabtpain I live in NY. After 3 small strokes, a heart attack, with my spinal syrinx and a brain malformation, I was cut off my meds cold turkey after years of not abusing. And treating my pain successfully.
I’ll tell everyone my story
@RealBrittHughes@Alyssa_Milano Are you kidding? If she bicycled there in a potato sack you would say she was putting on a show for cameras
A real person showed up in the way they really are, and you are upset? You’re grasping. And it’s sad
Another #suicide after #pain medication was denied. Sadly, I hear from people all over the country who are acutely suicidal, families who have lost loved ones to suicide or overdose, and many, many who can no longer function. https://t.co/Re8qXjXIiV
