Hi Taylamade,
You have certainly been on a life changing journey, firstly you managed to loose so much weight and change your life, only to have an accident and now find your life has changed radically again.
I'm sorry for the physical and mental pain you are feeling. Years ago I had a work injury that had my virtually living on the floor or flat out in bed for a year so I have some understanding of physical pain.
My experiences are different to yours. Right now you are really hurting in so many different ways.
Like Sophie_M has mentioned, there are supportive people here. We might not write the right thing, may make suggestions that frustrate you perhaps, please know we are here for you. Let us know how we can assist you.
Kind regards from Dools
