Now what! Neuropathy in feet and ankles.. Numbness in hands and arms

@jimhd Terrible to say, but I cannot imagine handling brutal pain without suicidal thoughts. I have them all the time. On top of it all, I was a veterinary technician for a few years, and watched first hand, the kindness of euthanasia. I watched suffering ended immediately, and without trauma of any kind. It's called being humane. Something that never really caught on for us humans, except in a few states. Will I ever committ suicide? If I could be guaranteed to do it correctly, perhaps. That is maybe a terrible thing to say. I don't know. But what is the point in living this way? I am sorry you are so very low. I have no idea what to say, other than that I truly understand it. I do know that I am at least able to take my Kratom and distract myself from pain. Like you, physical activity helps a lot. But is this a life? I have no idea. Lori Renee

Hey Jen @bustrbrwn22, Jim @jimhd and Lori Renee, when I am begging God to take me now bc my pain is intolerable and causing me to fight for my sanity, I think of how my grandkids, with whom I am very close to, would feel if I took my life and then I think, well, they wouldn't want me to suffer either. My mind won't stop analyzing, it's a problem!
Being a Bible-believing Christian, I don't believe we should take our own lives. I want to be clear, there is NO JUDGMENT HERE! !
I know God well enough to know that He has a purpose in our suffering. There are many bible verses that confirm that. And that a believer in Christ won't lose their salvation and will be forgiven if they take their life.
I want you to know how much I appreciate all of you and your support, encouragement and inspiration. Thank you!!
Sunny 🤗🌹

I am sorry to hear that you feel so bad that you would consider ending your life that is so terribly sad to me. Physical activity just makes the pain worse for me and I can't breath and my heart rate goes off the chart. The worse is at night when I try to go to sleep. But I can't get anyone to take me seriously about it they want to give me a pill for nerve pain that doesn't work and I'm tired of it. Some of us don't like being a gynny pig for they're placebo's and cocktails just to appeise they're hunger to prove an addict is just that an addict and will do or say anything for drugs. I wouldn't wish my condition on anyone.
