I have agraphobia, IBS, and some phobias. I don't have Migraines but I have a friend who does so I really feel for you! Why isn't there a hug emoticon mods? Hug Milly.

Aw many thanks Georgia,

It would be lovely if we did have a hug page in here wouldnt it ,I feel it for you too Georgia,so how do you deal with your phobias?

xx

Hello Georgia,

What type of IBS do you have ,is it the D type or the C type, and how do you deal with it ,does it stop you from wanting to eat out ?

xx

I don't deal with them very well. Mostly it's agrophobia about going out because people can be so cruel so I prefer to be a hermit and hide away from them. Abused as a youngster you can probably guess. But I'm not as timid as this admission might make me appear to be.  

I was never told what type of IBS it was, I was given tablets which I forget the name of, er, doh, I'm listening to music and my brain's focused on that. Anyway I found that the right foods and herbs really helped instead of those duh that I can't remember.

It's Blues, when I'm listening to Blues, medicine. 

No we're horrible! 

You're the first person I've heard say about numb Tis. I was having a rare energetic day, thought I was Hercules, so I went in the garden and starting strimming. My right arm went numb and dead for hours, I couldn't move it at all. I've tried strimming only once since. Wasn't a good outcome either, so much pain.

I believe that sometimes a bit of laughter in our lives can lift some of the misery.

So here is a special joke for the ladies: 

The pastor asked if anyone in the congregation would like to express

praise for answered prayers.

Suzie Smith stood and walked to the podium.

She said, "I have a praise. Two months ago, my husband, Tom, had a terrible bicycle accident and his scrotum was completely crushed. The pain was excruciating and the doctors didn't know if they could help him.

" You could hear a muffled gasp from the men in the congregation as they imagined the pain that poor Tom must have experienced.

"Tom was unable to hold me or the children," she went on, "and every move caused him terrible pain.

" We prayed as the doctors performed a delicate operation, and it turned out they were able to piece together the crushed remnants of Tom's scrotum, and wrap wire around it to hold it in place.

" Again, the men in the congregation cringed and squirmed uncomfortably as they imagined the horrible surgery performed on Tom. "Now," she announced in a quivering voice, thank the Lord, Tom is out of the hospital and the doctors say that with time, his scrotum should recover completely.

" All the men sighed with a unified relief.

The pastor rose and tentatively asked if anyone else had something to say.

A man stood up and walked slowly to the podium.

He said, "I'm Tom Smith."

The entire congregation held its breath.

"I just want to tell my wife the word is sternum."

Boom, boom

mind i wish my bum was numb now i had to give and take lactulose for constipation i spent all yesterday in and out of the loo s---ing thru an eye of a needle feels like iv been rubbing it with sandpaper . 

if its not one blooming thing its another with fibro .does my head in.

i brought a book stand so i hope i can get my books read just holding the weight of a book kills my arms and neck ,not helped by adams rib an extra rib at the top that presses in to nerves causing pain  and numbness. 

if i was an horse id be either turned into an open field to retire or shot . 

i remember a film i watched set in the 1920s depression and dealing with human struggles of the time .

it was called They shoot horses dont they . ?

You are too good to be shot Tiswas, and have a heck of a lot of life left in you.

Yes you have a difficult life but it could improve because you have the will to make it so.

numb bum and legs

ecessive sweating

dizzy spells

i b s

fears and phobias

aniexty

all over body pain every day for 10 yrs from 5/10+ 

crushing fatigue ,

pins and needles,

left knee gives way 

 bad eye sight thru eye muscle fatigue 

food intolerences 

i could go on but whats the point its just to depressing .

the only thing that works at the moment is my hearing still at 100 %

hi i sense you like tommy cooper jokes 

my faverite jokes from  tommy are , i love kids , went to school with a lot of them. mummy mummy can we play with grandad , no youv dug him up twice to day already .

i think i would have given up years ago if it wasnt for my love of comedy .

thanks laughter and music makes my life , from the four yorkshireman sketch, python .

tommy / frankie/ mike reid/ jack dee/ julie walters/ the lovely sarah millican

Hello Tiswas,

I am so sorry to see the list of problems you have ,it must be so difficult for you .As you will see I too have some fears and phobias,how do you cope with yours? also I see you too have IBS ,is this the D type or the C type.I have used nothing at al for the IBS other than Acidophilus Capsules ,what do you use ?

Take Care

millyimp

mine is brought about by certain foods i know i shouldnt have but cant resist 

some times , spicey foods ,tomatoes, eggs, and going on how constipated iv been from consuming mutton this also has to be added to my list . 

so if i avoid these i am ok if not i pay the price of con/direeoh . iv tried the capsuals makes things worse for me. i find normaly my accupunture keeps me steady , but i ate mutton for about 5 days in a row thinking of it as white meat  which i am fine on , but after suffering for a week i read up on mutton and its  classed as red meat ,so it was like eating beef for 5 days . god iv sufferd. .

Well I do believe that humour is one of the greatest gifts that we can have.

Laughing at ourselves also helps a lot, as does sharing laughter with others.

Whilst I am now retired, I still do voluntary work that brings me into regular contact with people who are struggling with abject misery in their lives. 

I learned some years ago that if I could somehow help them through their bleak patch with a little laughter, then I had made a small contribution to lifting their spirits and maybe their lives.

Oh, and by the way, yes I do enjoy the humour of the people that you have mentioned - 

i love the carry ons as well esp carryon camping, 

now babara has fallen out iv got sore misgivens well you need to put some cream on them ,  sid i thought you said we would be there by now i wasn't rekoning on miss throw up 1969 there .

wont bore you with any more one liners . 

Likewise ,

I found that when I ate some foods it would bring it on ,and yet other times I could eat that same food ,and it would be ok,it is so un predictable.Like you I find foods that I like can be the culprit,but I do tend to allow myself a little at a time ,hoping it doesnt set it off .Mutton is classed as red meat Tiswas,

(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))))))))))))))))

yes i know hun i found it out to late  like i said in the post just thought of it as lamb which is easy to digest . stupid person that i am . 

but i am never moving from what i know i am alright with agaiin this has been so bad . lets hope it rights it self soon hugsssssssssssss

I just went, I don't know how to say big intake of breath, I loved that series and that song. Wow

If I was you I would open to some relief type healing. Just a suggestion. 

archemedes typing problems now it's dark and I don't want to turn the big light on. The sooner you get keyboardachnia solved the better, as long as you make sure you patent it. I'll help as long as I can go halvesies. 

Anyway Tis think of light.

Hehehe good one!
