It is so difficult to cope with our emotions when a break up happens, but when we are ill it magnifies everything.

Can I suggest you give the Samaritains a call on 116 123. They have qualified listeners who can help you when you are feeling so low.

It's horrible what Fibro can do to us, both our bodies and our lives. You are certainly not alone 🐸

I wish I could shine a light and show you the way 🙁. But it's important to remember that you've taken the first step. You have told us how you feel. That's a big step forward. When everything hits you at once like that life is never easy. I'm sure one of us will come up with something useful. In the meantime I have you in my thoughts 🐸

My partner moved out due to his own health issues and I was always supportive and have continued to be ever since but he does not even acknowledge my problems its all about him listen to how he feels about his day his trestment his worries for his future and the minute I talk about my life and chronic constant pain etc he always finds something else to do or stsrts watching a film or plays his dum game on his phone I don't think they can see past their own needs and prove how self centred they are better off without them i think

Hi walterhollis

I have read your post with so much pain and sorrow for how you are suffering and struggling and I want to sincerely wish you all the best of luck. As Sorbones says, it may help to talk to somebody about how you are feeling and the Samaritans are wonderful listeners and are there for you 24 hours a day if you ever need to reach out to somebody?

I have given you their telephone number again: 116 123

You may also find it beneficial to discuss how you are feeling with a counsellor? It may help to ask your GP about a referral for this? I was wondering if you have ever considered joining a Fibro group? As you would meet up with many like minded folk who you could talk to and hopefully benefit one another?

I have pasted you a link to the FMA UK cache on support groups.

Please take care of yourself and let us know how you get on?

All my hopes and dreams for you

Ken

I'm thinking of you and I'm going through similar problems too, I just wanted you to know that you are not alone, I truly understand and so does all the other wonderful people on this forum. Sending you lots of strength and courage. I'm here if you need to talk.

Take to heart that there are those who do care for you, and talking to a professional is important. I have my faith,famiy, and friends, but those who do not, please talk to someone who is willing to listen to you, if you have friends and family who aren't good listeners, this doesn't make them a bad person, it's that they may not be able to mentally be able to handle your situation, they me be great at taking you to the dr, or shopping...I have a husband who has fibro like myself, he was diagnosed years before me, but that's whole other issue, dealing w/women and doctors, and he is a double lateral amputee, and he has better days than me for the most part and he is fighting cancer, but we make it work, and we have two adult daughters who have chosen to live at home to help us, and vise versa at times😉 , it's a give and take. I'm sure i'd run everyone away 🏃 if I wasn't supportive of them, even from my bed!

Please keep fighting for your health, life, and relationships❤, better days ahead for you!😉
