No problem, you can vent any time you would like. I know that for me, I
don't have anyone to talk to about what I am going through. I am on
Alesse for bcp's right now. As far as painkillers, the only thing they
have given me so far are lortabs. I don't know much about painkillers,
but I know that most of the time lortabs do not help me at all. Now I
don't even bother taking them. I have been depressed the past couple of
days. I feel like crying and crying and crying all day long. I am sure
you understand. Thanks for listening to me. Jamie
