Pain vs Heat

Any of my fellow sufferers know that extreme heat is a sworn enemy. The only thing besides a cool bath or shower (and finding some AC) I can suggest is an ice pack or a cool damp rag across the back of your neck. I am not a doctor but i play one on......lol , no, it has been explained to me by one that it cools the blood flowing to and from your brain thusly keeping the thermostat turned down.

Sometimes it is hard.....

I have a hard time keeping my hopes alive when it is so obvious
how far I have slipped from where I was. I just don't know what too do anymore. Looking at it from the perspective of 3 years as a preview to the rest of my life...........I have to be stoned out of my gourd in order to maintain any social function, is it worth it? No matter how hard I try I can't shake the feeling that I no longer provide any service to society or to the people that love me. The twine holding me in this world seems to fray more and more......
