I know what you are talking about. I have spent so many years trying to overcome it and some days I still struggle.
I would love to have you write for my blog. Would you consider it?

I will pray for your move. I hope you have a good group of people, church or people your dh works with, to help pack. And make sure the family know when you move out there, there is a chance of the stress of the move setting you back. But then, if it is a good supportive environment, and they are helping, hopefully you will be able to recover from the set back and start to have more good days.
God bless your day.View Thread

My parents have "over" supported me, to the extent where they are telling me to try something new every week. I can't even count how many books about fms and pain, and cfs I have. But they have good intentions, just over bearing sometimes.
My hubby had cancer back in 2001 so he knows what it feels like to hurt like that and have no energy. He says cancer was easier because it didn't last as long.
My brother and his wife, and my sister and her hubby, and my best friend, all thought I was faking, lazy, I don't know what all and why. But I can't post that on my blog. I have fogiven, and sometimes have to re-forgive them and our relationships are good right now.
Would you be interested in writing a blog entry in more detail about your support and lack of support? Things that were good that helped, things that hurt?View Thread

Fell. Again. Ugh. Sat down on chair on front porch while talking to my dad and went straight off the side into the evergreen bushes, chair and all. Besides some scrapes and bruises, got a nice knot on my already injured knee. Guess that is a blessing"026at least I am not crippled on both sides. LOL. The boys would have loved to have it recorded to put on AFV. Pretty funny trying to get out of a chair, thick in the bushes. Dad almost had to rig up some kind of crane!
PAIN ! All over. Not just where the bruises are, oh my word. Did I get hit by a semi after I fell? Maybe I was out of it and just wasn't aware of a truck crushing my entire body.
Boy, oh boy. Isn't fibro fun!View Thread
