- dealing with the aftermath... hEDS considerably slows the healing process...

With the condition I have,

Injuries have a hard time

Healing, and they don't

Very quickly, so I can't

Express how annoyed and

Angry I am with myself for

Going ahead and making it

So much worse for myself,

Adding to the already constant

Pain in this useless body of mine.

It's nothing that I ever want,

Just something I'm struggling

To gain some sort of control

Over and it's causing me so much

More pain that I can't describe.    

I'm feeling like a total idiot that

I can't get a better handle on this,

Considering these moments are

So void of sense or any distress

That would lead me to this old

Way of handling that kind of

Problem -- I think I'm losing it.

I'm so exhausted dealing with this,

Pretty much demolished at this point.
