Fibro cfs and the “joys” of life

Can any long term suffers of fibro and cfs tell me if you ever find yourself ? By this meaning I don’t have a clue where my life’s going anymore I just feel lost and like a bum that can’t provide anymore . This time of year hits home especially as I’d love nothing more than to treat my 6 kids my partner my mother and father to something nice , realistically I haven’t a pot to pee in because I’m in capable of working anymore .

Going off point abit does this crap sorry about the language ever get any easier , any better ? do you ever get used to just existing and not being able to flourish or make good memory’s with your family because tbh I can’t see a light at the end of this tunnel

Moneys not everything but when you struggle to even fuel your car enough to get about your daily buisness ….

I was diagnosed with M.E. twenty years ago and over the years my symptoms became a bit better and I could manage to do at least some things. Now twenty years on and I have a bunch of other illnesses - Liver disease and Diabetes among them - so I am back to square one with the fatigue.

I find it does get a bit better, in that I am now resigned to sitting about doing f* all. Also I know my limits so I tend not to overdo things (which causes a real set-back) My problem is making my family (mostly son and his wife) understand this. I only have so much energy to give so I find it hard to babysit for long periods. I think they think I am being problematic so we don't see them as much as I'd like.
