Problems, unqualified and undisclaimed.

I realised tonight that I have, basically, been in pain for twenty years.

I have all sorts of thoughts about this, but I'm too sore, tired, medicated, and angry to make anything coherent out of them

ETA: But, in a nutshell — probably a hideously non-ergonomic nutshell with no padding for my hip — people in chronic pain need, basically, doulas.

Me too. Especially when it comes to women who help with childbirth (not a bad role, but it really needs a better name). It really makes my skin crawl seeing that word flung around.
