Hmmm I would like to be helpful except this:
"The hardest part is that she just left without me being able to explain clearly why i screamed. She thought i was yelling at her while in reality i was yelling due to the immense pain.
After that i had to cut ties forever. Tabula rasa. So i removed everything that is related to that time and locked it in my vault."
Your reaction to her reaction is to cut ties forever? To say fuck it I don't care about her any more? and yet you fault her for perhaps having a similar reaction to your neediness? This says to me that you don't have any perspective on how she relates to you, you only care about how you relate to her. It sounds like you are in a shitty situation and I hope things improve but on this particular interaction I am on her side. -
Get some weed...
If the injury is not bones related (muscular, nerves) it helps a lot.
I traded opium based pills for weed when I was injured (same situation, 1 year without moving, injections in the ass 3x a day, and I was lucky with the girlfriend I had back then, she was my nurse).
Traded all opium pills for weed...
Not as strong but relaxes the muscles, meaning it's an analgesic and it's also helping recover. -
Wow, that sucks.. As others have already suggested, go see a doc. Or get one to come to your place.
I truly hope you'll sort it out.
As for the girl - don't worry. If she couldn't handle you in illness, what does that tell you about how serious she was?
Don't worry. It'll pass. Later you'll remember these days with a smile 'damn was I desperate back then' :) things will get better. They always do while we're young.
The injury will come back to you at your old age with a mother fucking heavy artilery, that's for sure. But for now you'll be fine -
OP, where do you live?
You definitely need to do as you were told here.
I have a returning back pain and can relate at least to some degree.
1. Get to a hospital. Visit a doctor. Get meds.
If you can't, look for OTC meds that are painkillers and learn how to use them without killing your liver. You can look for cough medicines that contain codeine, its a painkiller in highier doses. Its available without prescription in most countries. Weed might also help you if its legal where you live. I won't advice anything illegal, your life, decisions and responsibility after all.
2. Get rest, see a chiropractor or at least back massage from a professional, the one sport people have.
3. Do exercises targeted at your back pain. It is related to weak muscles, so strengthening them and making them more flexible will help.
4. Get yourself a life. Tinder or something. But first - get well. -

I have a fucked up back too, and I can totally understand the pain (especially the going to toilet bit) - been there myself though I think mine was not as bad as yours.
It's not worth living through it, just go to a doctor and/or a physiotherapist (depending on the kind of injury). I went to the former and then the latter, now after a lot of very careful exercise and some medication I can move around with reasonable comfort. Hope you get to this stage too.
I also understand why you may not want to use painkillers (to not over-stress your back). Use your judgement here, but they aren't as bad as one might think.
I would also tell you to fix your back first, and then your relationships, but I guess it's not as simple as that. All I can do is agree with the others for this bit.
My life could get worse, but it's really shitty now.
Suffering from a serious back injury since last year, my health has been not so positieve lately.
It put a toll on my mood, which in turn asked it's price regarding my relationship. Needless to say that did not go well. Already a fe months single but we kept in touch.
Three days ago my back injury returned, and was unable to lead a normal life. Constant pain, coyld not even move in the house. Even going to the toilet was a terrible experience because when you move, you're in a world of pain.
I asked my ex girlfriend to help me, since she was the only one having a key to my house.
When she arrived i hoped to have some moral support and to help me mive around, ensuring i would not injure myself any more.
Instead i received the cold shoulder. When she wanted to help pe up she did it a bit too hard and the pain sheered thrpughout my body. Screaming in pain.
She promptly left, leaving keys behind.
The hardest part is that she just left without me being able to explain clearly why i screamed. She thought i was yelling at her while in reality i was yelling due to the immense pain.
After that i had to cut ties forever. Tabula rasa. So i removed everything that is related to that time and locked it in my vault.
Since then i can hardly focus, my mibd is numb and i cannot think straight. The alcohol and other sedatives are probably also involved, but still i feel my life is a mountain of depressing shit.
Needed to vent. And yes i post this because i have a need for some understanding, yes for now i crave for some attention and some encouraging, supportive words. I'm left With no other options since the person i wanted it from the most has simply left... And the fact i am unable to actually be social outside...
Fuck friends and relationships, right?
