Chronic Pain

Has anyone here besides me been emotionally abused by their family because they are chronically ill and in pain? Mine has disowned me and has threatened to lock me up for insanity and drug addiction.(My doctor is appalled and I only take the medications she gives me. And OF course I am depressed! Pain for 10 years with no apparent cause and thus no relief will do that to a person I suspect.) I live out of the United States and have been informed that they have contacted the United States Embassy and have tried to convince them I need locked up. Now I am disowned and also getting abuse (emotional) from my boyfriends family like He needs a woman from his own country and one who can work and if you were really sick you would get help and then made fun of because I am short, overweight and have trouble with the language. I am so distraught I can barely get out of bed. I have to wait for a psychologist appointment because these things take time in socialized medicine. I cry constantly and am in severe pain which is aggrivated by crying. I have chronic headaches, 4 different types. I have applied for disability and keep getting turned down. I am wondering if I am really insane or just horribly abused by most of the people I know. If so why is this happening? I do my best to be a loving person and often fall short of the mark because of pain and the abuse. But I honestly try. Am I alone in this? Please answer. I am beginning to think that taking my own life to end this pain is a good idea. I want some other ideas so I do not have to take the last one. I dont want to die. I want the pain to end. Physical and emotional. I have shut my awful family out of my life. And I think this will be forever. God I am so sad.
