Reaching Out for Human Contact

I need someone to comfort me tonight. My gain in pain has finally outstripped my learning curve regarding how to deal with it--and I don't know what to do. I am devastated. I hurt so much. I actually feel disabled today because it's so hard to convince myself to get up and move. Running is impossible; we had to during physical training (like PE) today and I just couldn't. Resting on my bed did not cause the pain to even remotely go away. I didn't sleep well last night and I am just worn out. (I will soon be starting a sleep med, even though my pain specialist disapproves, because I do need to protect my mental health and prevent another bipolar episode.) I need some human contact and comfort.
