Be gentle on yourself and remember you don't need to wear your underpants on the outside and be superwoman. Have you any family you can ask for help? Delegate household tasks where you can and try to pace yourself as much as possible. In the end I had to stop working, I wasn't coping. It may be the route you need to follow.

Depression is very common with fFibro unfortunately. I had to stop working in the end and I must say the less stress and reduced pain makes up for having very little money. Just try not to worry about things you can't control as worry wears you down and never alters the outcome.
