Loved reading this post, Aly.
I think we have ALL been there. And no matter what you say to people in trying to explain or excuse why you feel bad, or why you just aren't yourself, or why you aren't drinking alcohol when everybody else is...they will NEVER understand, unless they have it...and they have been there themselves. It always seemed like such a waste of my breath. I just know that it really SUCKS at the time you are having an attack - I have had attacks so bad that I am sitting on the toilet sweating, dizzy with cramps and praying to God to PLEASE make it STOP!!
But, I usually feel a little better the next day, and your right - life goes on! You really do learn to live with it.
Glad your feeling better now!!
