I don't care what anyone says about controlling your emotions. I know that depending on how you feel physically will definitely impact your feelings emotionally.
Do you ever wake up with that nagging headache? How does this impact the remainder of your day? Does it seem like everyone is annoying you, although the day before these same situations had no emphasis on you either way. If you get up feeling good then the chances of having a better day is higher.
Well today I woke up with terrible cramps and boy did it affect both my mental state as well as my productivity. Nothing I did seemed to help my emotional state, even though I took something for the pain. This is when I realized that I cannot let my pains control how I feel, funny thing is that I often give out that same advice to others.
Feel well and be well.

Toothache, Headache, Backache Hydrocodone Anyone?
I am sure we all know someone who has been on some form of hydrocodone more commonly known as Vicodin. Some may take it for a simple toothache, others for chronic pain, but the reality is that some are just plainly addicted to it. Yes I will admit that it is prescribed sometimes too freely and thus may cause an addictive response but who is accountable. Physician or patient. Some symptoms are subjective meaning as a medical provider the pain cannot be seen so we rely on patients being honest and truthful, however should some providers be more conservative with their treatments at time. I am not sure there is a right answer.
From personal experience I had very bad side effects with hydrocodone. So it is difficult for me to even believe that this is addicting, but anyway this should be used with lots of caution.
