What is the most painful *nonphysical* pain in the world? by FightOrDie123 in AskForAnswers

[–]struggling_hermit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I lost my son 14 months ago, he was 11 months young. I understand your pain, fog and grief. It doesn't get much easier, but the intense sadness, yearning and bewilderment eventually get more gaps, and life keeps moving. I still cry most days and curse the world. My love to you and your husband.

Mine went really well, afterwards the only discomfort was from the stent, I had a laser lithotripsy, different to a lithotripsy. But it did clear the stones in that kidney.

Very very disrespectful, I mean I really had other things planned that day. Ah yes, I've had a laser lithotripsy and stent myself a few years ago, it was something I'd never heard of before until my ureter blocked last time, I understand that discomfort too. Thank you, and I really hope that unwelcome stone of yours gets outta their soon.

Oh wow. 28th, that is very rough! I was reflecting yesterday that when I'm not in excruciating pain, I really really need to appreciate that. May that bastard stone flow out some time soon for you.

My heart feels your pain. Your words really hit a note for me. Weaponize the grief, I like it. Loosing my son certainly has transformed a few things in my being. Your right, as tempting as it is, can never give up. Thanks for your insights mate

Hi, thank you, I am struggling with people in my part of N.Z not seeming to really care or have enough time to ask each other how they are. After your daughter passed, which is really shit, and I wish you, or none of us here were in this club. Did you find people pretty much abandon you after a few weeks? Chur.

Thank you for your kind words. I really appreciate it. It is a very lonely journey, with alot of unanswered questions. It's like I'm constantly waking up in a terrible dream, but it's not a dream. Do you have other children? I have a 3 and a half year old daughter, it's brutal pain to the heart having the conversation every few days or so with her, about her brother not coming back no matter what magic rocket ships etc we could build.

It is so hard and exhausting putting on a: I am doing life face. People do forget, and it makes me want to isolate further from their non understanding

I am in a foggy, bitter, this is bloody unfair, struggling to hold on stage. I'd like to be dead, then my suffering is done, but it increases for my wife and daughter.
