"January roller coaster"

This month was even more of an emotional roller coaster. N ot only was it the 20th year anniversary of the dissolution of my common law marriage, but it was also the anniversary of my first homeless experience in St. Kilda, Australia.   It is like salt in a wound to realize that despite working my ass off for 20 years with no vacations, I am still in crushing poverty and have survived the unthinkable.

largely homebound

Still seriously ill and it is getting really tough to leave the house.  Based on my past track record it seems very unlikely that the medical profession will ever lead me to a healthier body or better quality of life.

I've been trying to leave town for 3 years but I just don't have the means, even though it wouldn't take a huge amount of money for me to move.

I wish I had something interesting to share but cable t.v. is about it for excitement, for now.

I have made a few attempts at joining social groups, but my lack of car have made it nearly impossible to attend.

"Still in very poor health"

Definitely dissapointed that the mmj hasn't helped yet.  Because i am so sick, i now only leave the house for 2 to 5 hours each day as opposed to staying out all day.  The only break from suffering is basically when i'm sleeping.  I'm definitely getting more sleep then i did when i wasliving with  my seriously mentally ill roomate from 2/1 to 4/26/2013-so in that regard my qol is a little better.

This is still by no means an acceptable quality of life.
