Hey i am David 22 m aussie,

i have the same problem with not getting sleep and have painful flair
ups during the night. Bordom is a big problem, i jump online and
chat, motorcycle rides everywhere, play Wow ( world of Warcraft),
research differant drugs, diets to beat this thing, and have started
into doing work from home stuff to pass the time. But i ve been sick
for a year now and those options are now starting to get bording as
well.

It is hard trying to adjust life around flair ups and each of us
copes in a differant way. My next big challange is my bday in a few
weeks time. i would like to get back to work full time, party with
friends, do the things i love so much, but i look at each day as a
step to getting better.
