Prostatitis is officially ruining my life...
I only feel normal for bout 1 hour a day if you add up the pauses, it start with burning on the head of my penis, then my whole penis, then my prostate, sometimes both. It feels like someone is piercing my penis with a knife from the urethra going in all the way to my pelvic area.
I sit here just living like this... Why do I have to live like this? Than I thought... I don't have to live like this in a sense.
It makes me super depressed cause people think that its something one can just handle but let me shine some light on how this feels. Have you ever had a real bad cut or scrape? Chances are everybody has at one point in life, well its like that but like 50 times worse and the pain just never stops, its stings, burns, and hurts forever. I would cry from the pain before but now I just tolerate it, I ended up trying to make myself believe that its possible to live like this. I did a part time work for a while and I realized I can live like this but the life I'm living is one that I rather not live at all, because the stress only makes it worse while working so I would sometimes be crying while peeing or working, not crying out loud but tears coming out my eyes. I have reason to believe this is the reason why I wasn't hired full time.
I've promised myself the second the pressure went away and the burning stopped I would run down the beach happy but the more time passes the more I begin to realize that the day may never come. I have hopes that maybe it'll get cured on its own because since I have free medical until maybe one more month when I turn 21. I am currently waited to be sent to a urologist but my doctor says that they can't get in contact with my insurance so maybe they're waiting til I turn 21 so they don't have to pay for it.
If anyone can help me in some way I'd be eternally grateful...
I just want to see a doctor and live a normal life....
The more that days pass with this terrible feeling.. the more I feel like I longer want to live and when the pain gets extremely intense and I'm crying in bed... I keep thinking about suicide...
What makes me sad is that I wasn't this kind of person before and I lost friends because I can't go outside or do anything cause of the pain. I use to love going out to parties with friends, going to the mall to watch movies and visit my girlfriend who lives an 3 hours away on bus. I miss her so much and I'm surprised she puts up with the mess I've became..
If I didn't have her I think I probably would kill myself already, I don't do it cause I don't find it fair for her to go through something like that but at this point I just don't want to live. If I can go to sleep and never wake up it would be a blessing in a sense.
Anyways these are just my thoughts, and I know something like this doesn't compare to a disease like cancer where people would give anything just to live but I just want to live normal... I miss being able to be normal, and sure I'm happy to be able to enjoy sometime with the people I care about... but when you are 21 and don't have a job and cry most of the day or mope around because of pain people won't tolerate you... not even your own family...
And when your family turns on you... what do you do? You have nearly nothing left but to just cry on the floor and wait to hopefully die and then maybe they can understand.... or suicide so may they get what you were actually going through....
