okay Jo, take a deep breath, slowly let the air out- make a nice cuppa and sit down somewhere comfortable-NOW I WILL START, Marriage, does the other half support your case.? do you feel supported.? Do you feel loved within the relationship.? if the answer is no to any or all of the above.. Then you know the truth but don't want to admit it- if the answer is yes to one or all of the above, ask him/her what it is and why the other half can't cope. Try to understand a healthy person cannot see your pain, so can't see why your in pain- its only when they get the illness themselves that it hits home- Empathy is ok but not normally long lasting- Fibro is long lasting so friends and family can wear thin of it sooner or later- but not every one will walk away, some do stay, they are the Angels in our lives.. Now as for you, If its a nice day, take a cuppa outside and enjoy the mild sun, live by a road/footpath/where people walk,? Then sit outside and say hello to them, some will reply some won't. either way your making a positive move to doing more than sitting inside crying into your cup of tea. Sunlight is good for the soul as well as Vitamin b. I hope it goes well for you- regards, kazz

Hi Kazz sorry you are feeling so low and if you are in so much constant pain and also battling with a bad marriage it is understandable that you are down s be gentle with yourself.

Did you realise that if you click on the three horizontal stripes on the left of the green bar at the top of the page and scroll down you can click on "people near you" Not everyone gives permission for this but you might see someone who is surprisingly close to you who might be in a position to meet up or be willing to chat. If someone in their profile seems to have something in common you could personal message them. Don't feel hurt if they can't or don't want to meet as everyones circumstances are different and some people are too Ill or have too many commitments.

I have one lady near me and although we have never met we both find comfort in the thought that there is someone near going through the same thing and it makes us feel not so much alone.

There is also something called The Pain Support site and I know they have a contact club with their forum. Hope this has helped in some way.. Do let us know how you are doing.xxx😃

Hi my friend

I am so genuinely sorry to read that you are suffering and struggling so much, and I sincerely hope that you can find some resolution and relief to all of these problems.

I have pasted you a link below for Fibro groups, as I am sure that you could find a like minded soul(s) there? Or there is rosewines suggestion?

fmauk.org/contactsmenu/supp...

Please can I say however, be careful when meeting somebody off the internet. Always stay in a public place and let others know where you are going etc. Please stay safe. I want to genuinely and sincerely wish you all the best of luck.

All my hopes and dreams for you

Hi Joanne,

You're not the only one who is finding life and marriage a struggle. At the moment I feel it's like Fibro V Marriage. It's so hard, so difficult and almost unbearable at times.

Then suddenly, you have a 'not so bad day' and you think oh I've turned a corner only to find the next day back to square one.

Please get some outside help, perhaps counselling together or on your own.

All I can add to this is you definitely are not alone with your feelings. You have BigAlan near you, how great is that, he is wonderful to chat with and may even pop by in his new chariot!

Take care my Fibro friend

Lu xx
