I took Energy from you, and gave you Exhaustion. Try to have fun now? I also took Good Sleep from you and, in its place, gave you Brain Fog. I can make you tremble internally ,make you feel cold or hot when everyone else feels normal. Oh, yeah, I can make you feel anxious or depressed,too. If you have something planned, or are looking forward to a great day, I can take that away, too. You didnt ask for me. I chose you for various reasons. That virus you had that you never recovered from, or that car accident, or maybe it was the years of abuse and trauma. Well, anyway,I'm rolling on the floor, laughing. Just think you will have to go to many,many Doctors until you find one who even BELIEVES I EXIST.
You will be put on pain pills, sleeping pills, energy pills, told you are suffering from anxiet or depression, given TENS Units, get massaged, told if you just sleep and exercise more I will go away, told to think positive, poked,prodded, and MOST OF ALL, laughed at when you tell the doctor I am debilitating. Your family, friends and co workers will listen to you until they just get tired of hearing about how I Make you feel, and that I'm a real disease. Some of them will say things like "oh ,you are just having a bad day," not hearing that you said 20 Days ago. Some will just start talking behind your back, while you dlowly feel that you are losing your dignity trying to make them understand, especially when you are in the middle of a conversation with a "Normal" person l, and you cant remember what you were going to say next?
Eventually, most of them will be like all the doctors who say "Its all in your Head"
In closing (I was hoping that I kept this part a secret), but I guess you already found out.
The ONLY place you will get any support and understanding is dealing with me is with OTHER PEOPLE WITH FIBROMYALGIA.
