I read your post early this morning and have been thinking of you all day.
Do you feel like the Tymlos causes depression itself or the consequences of osteoporosis?
I do totally understand depression, but not obsessing over it.
I have always taken care of my clothes, hair, appearance and loathe people who wear pajamas and slippers to the store like they just rolled out of bed. Im by no means a fashionista, but try to be presentable.
So, with a hunched back, a short neck, a muffin top and all body parts about hitting the floor, yes, it is depressing. I dont want to shop for clothes now because nothing fits right. I wouldnt get caught in a bathing suit, shorts or a crop top. When i get out of the shower and look in the mirror, I sometimes cry and do say Id rather be dead. But those thoughts are short lived. Im very thankful. My six fractures could have been much worse.
My husband still loves me and says I look nice. Our boys come home often. We do things together, they help with things I cant do anymore. We have the most wonderful nieces and nephews, good friends an neighbors. Life is good.
Yeah....my body isnt 20 anymore, but it still works. I still walk 5 miles in the park everyday, I play with the dog, cook, clean, etc. Im the same person, just 3 inches shorter and readjusted here and there.
We all have our moments of feeling down. I could be wrong....but I dont think its the Tymlos itself but what osteoporosis does to us and how frustrating it is. Focus on all the good things in your life, and there are so many. Spend time doing what you enjoy and surround yourself with people you love. Do something kind for someone. Dont let osteoporosis get you down. Stay on this forum. We all understand. Together, we can help each other.
You take care. You are a beautiful person!
