USA

I am in the depths of hell and depression between pain of PN and spinal cord------the riots and uprisings here in PA and all other states! The isolation and lonliness of being alone--America is being destroyed! Why won't they bring in the military??? I know its in UK too! I am sicker of all of it---innocent people being killed, bussiness destroyed and buildings burnt down. These are not protesters, these are nothing but terroist! My heart breaks watching what is going on! We will end up a communist state! I feel helpless except to pray! I cry when I awake and when I go to bed! Please God help all of us and all the innocent! Its 2am but no sleep! God Bless our world! trishj46

I would be banned for life if I answered this truthfully.😷

Have a look who really rules the US and who owns the media. Takes a bit of digging but there lies your answer. A lot of riots were started by fake rioters but unfortunately it brings out the criminal element and peaceful demonstrations turn ugly. It’s bad in the US but bringing in the military will make things worse. The officers concerned should be brought to justice and the police should be taught better practices. That is the way forward. Instead the officers were fired I believe but that’s all which is not good enough. However it’s too big an issue to discuss on here really. All I can say is stay safe and take care.

The officers have been charged with manslaughter!

Thanksfor your input! I am living in fear!

Take care!

So much of life is out of our hands. All we can do is try our best to solve the problems presented to us and PRAY.

Thanks for your kind input---I do pray---I just find isolation with all this going on very difficult and terrifying at times. Pain on top makes me feel hopeless to help anyone going through this, besides just me. Hugs!

Can you pick up the phone and call a friend? Watch a favourite movie or put your favourable album on. I know it sounds silly but it's little things like that that keep me grounded and calm . Any stress will just make your pain worse.

No I don't think its silly---I guess I just get paralyzed and caught up in everything going on and tend to feel unsafe! No one can come in here yet as I am isolated. I have the phone but no real company. I hate to call people sometimes and have them hear my weakness!

Its easier I guess to talk on here, everyone so supportive and non-judgemental! Thanks you your kindness and suggestions--I will try! Hugs!

Give it a go, pick up the phone. You might be helping them too. X

trishj46• in reply tohappytulip4 years ago

Will do! Promise! Hugs!

How are you doing??

trishj46• in reply tohappytulip4 years ago

I have talked to a good friend and my Aunt in New York! Tried to do some reading---like spiritual things! Its very kind of you to even remember me! Your post to me was motivating so I went for it. Pain does not go, but I can try to distract, but not always easy! Thanks very much happytulip!

I will keep you in my prayers & say one for me! Hugs!

You are most welcome. We all need a helping hand at times. I had one today from a friend and it encouraged me.

I suffer from chronic pain due to lupus and am on very strong painkillers. I find that the more I am stuck at home and not moving because of the virus, the stiffer and more painful I get. So I put some music on today and had a very gentle kitchen disco to some of my favourite tunes. A little movement is better than none. And right now music is better than all the hate in the news.

Good vibes are being sent to you from across the pond 🌈🌈

So glad you got some relief too! Don't know why this isolation seems worse as I have been homebound nine years now. I have pudental neuralgia, spinal cord injury, and lots of things that go with it. I feel I am slowly losing my life in a matter of time. Not going to concentrate on that----just on the relief we both got now! Take care of yourself! Putting you in the hands of God, hoping your pain from Lupus lessens everyday! Hugs & Blessings! Pat
