Maybe you can talk with them and explain that you are glad they understand your limitations and level of pain but that you are much more then the pain.<br />I have no family and one close friend who no longer lives near me. so I have never had that situation, actually I have mostly had the opposite of refusal to accept and believe, so it is a thought I have that hopefully might be something helpful for you.<br />Thank you for reading and writing.<br />You too.

Especially whe...It is so hard to find that balance. Especially when we want to seem strong and not as a burden. I have 2 people in my life (one family, one friend. Total.) and my friend kept telling me to express more openly to my family member how hard it is for me to do things, how much I struggle just visiting with them. But all I kept telling my friend, and myself, is that I didn't want my family member to worry about me or realize how far away I am, and will probably always be, from being "normal". It took me having to endure extreme pain (standing for 2 hours), for my family member to see what this pain is really doing to me. I was embarrassed. My mind couldn't think properly, I couldn't hide the pain on my face. And my secret was given up. Now that family member knows where I'm at physically, and that person makes comments about doing things for me because they know I must be in a lot of pain. I honestly wish they never found out, because although it needed to happen, I feel like my pain has robbed me of having a conversation with someone who doesn't have my pain level constantly in mind. I hope in the future I can get better at accepting and dealing with this. :/ Thank you for making me think about the situation more objectively. I am trying to accept that the people who are close to me will have to know about my pain. Sigh. Take care.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4622074794036937969.post-12742572792506038242012-10-17T18:15:52.441-04:002012-10-17T18:15:52.441-04:00Thanks.

It is surprising sometimes how writing in the blog does sometimes turn into more journaling.

I want people to understand I am feeling pain, but also to respect my feelings in talking about it. I cannot hide how I am, it cannot be swept under the carpet. So I have to talk about it, but yes NOT all the time. But I don't want them to just ignore it, that hurts me more as if they don't care.It is as you say, a hard middle ground to learn.<br />That's what my blog is for, as you mention. It helps in a way to talk to myself, and hopefully helps others reading to either relate or understand someone they know going through similar pains.<br />Great post :)Dystonia and Functional Movement Disorder Suffererhttp://www.dystoniasufferer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4622074794036937969.post-28350359012607771302012-10-17T15:42:40.614-04:002012-10-17T15:42:40.614-04:00Hi there!
