I am having a rough time right now. I haven't been able to get my meds in over a month. My p is flaring with a vengeance. I have went from zero coverage on my body to forty percent of my body covered. My p is getting bigger and worst with each day. New spots are appearing in places where I have never had before. I am trying to handle it the best I can. Since I can't get my meds for awhile I know it just a matter of time before most of my body is covered like it was six years ago. I feel so helpless. I have had p for close to nineteen years and I'm tired of it. I'm tired of the pain and soreness. I am tired of my skin flaking, cracking, and bleeding. I'm tired of the stares. I'm tired of the negative remarks. I'm tired of being judge. I 'm tired of people running in fear of me. I'm tired of being treated as if I was a freak. I keep telling myself that I can handle it and everything will be ok in time, but after all these years I feel close to my breaking point. I know I got many more years ahead dealing with p. I'm so ready to just give up. The only person around me that understand what I am going through is my dad. But I can't talk to him about it. Because he blames himself for me having p and I can't take seeing him hurting because I am suffering. I've told him that I don't blame him many times. I am so tired of the emotional and mental rollercoaster of p. I want it to stop and let me off. I just want to be normal.

Remember this:
MEN ARE JUST HAPPIER PEOPLE

NICKNAMES

If Laura, Kate and Sarah go out for lunch, they will call each other Laura, Kate and Sarah.
If Mike, Dave and John go out, they will affectionately refer to each other as Fat Boy, Godzilla and Four-eyes.


EATING OUT

When the bill arrives, Mike, Dave and John will each throw in $20, even though it's only for $32.50. None of them will have anything smaller and none will actually admit they want change back.
When the girls get their bill, out come the pocket calculators.


MONEY

A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs.
A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn't need but it's on sale.


BATHROOMS

A man has seven items in his bathroom: toothbrush and toothpaste, shaving cream, razor, a bar of soap, shampoo and a towel...
The average number of items in the typical woman's bathroom is 337. A man would not be able to identify more than 20 of these items.


ARGUMENTS

A woman has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.


FUTURE

A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.
A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.


SUCCESS

A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
A successful woman is one who can find such a man.


MARRIAGE

A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't.
A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change, but she does.


DRESSING UP

A woman will dress up to go shopping, water the plants, empty the trash, answer the phone, read a book, and get the mail.
A man will dress up for weddings and funerals.


NATURAL

Men wake up as good-looking as they went to bed.
Women somehow deteriorate during the night.


OFFSPRING

Ah, children. A woman knows all about her children. She knows about dentist appointments and romances, best friends, favourite foods, secret fears and hopes and dreams.
A man is vaguely aware of some short people living in the house.



THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
A married man should forget his mistakes. There's no use in two people remembering the same thing!

SO, send this to the women who have a sense of humor and who can handle it ... and to the men who will enjoy reading

First of all Sarah, why haven't you blame him once detached, he's not totally responsible, but inadvertdali he is, I have found psychology effects my condition, it's what causes my condition to flare up your father can take the stress if he knows he's not directly responsible . And Sarah I have been there, I'v been hospitalized twice be of a major flare up. The doctors have to place in the hospital when it becomes life threatening.

Hello Darling, long time no hear, what's , happening ,how are you doing?
Comment by Dal L. Gordon on January 2, 2010 at 4:34pm
I try to turn off mentally when I go through a flair-up, and read some that abstract.
Comment by Dal L. Gordon on January 2, 2010 at 4:30pm
Sarah can you get to some oatmeal bath mix, it's an alternative, and some Vaseline, to break up the scales, I'v been there more then once. Hang in there until you can get some med's, and see a dr.
