Hi everyone, I’m quite new on here, Happy New Year to you all 🥳🎊. Little bit about me, I’m a 50 year old woman, I have Trigeminal Neuralgia Type 2 which I’ve had for 16 years, I have Glaucoma which I’ve had for 4 1/2 years, I suffer Depression and Anxiety as a result of having a Breakdown nearly 4 years ago. I feel I’m in a vicious cycle.... when my TN pain isn’t bad it triggers the Depression and Anxiety, or, if I’m feeling extra anxious/depressed I find I don’t deal with my TN pain as well which in turn makes the pain worse!! So sick ‘n tired of feeling sick ‘n tired 😢😢xx
