I know I have said I over did it Friday and suffering... but do you get more tearful because of this condition...
Yesterday I managed to nap and found myself dreaming of my dear deceased mother... my brother awoke me by calling (he apologised of course) on the telephone.
Then I spent the day crying missing my mum... but also my daughter and granddaughter ( who are living)... it can make you feel so alone and isolated.
Am I alone in this? Or is it because I feel poorly on top of the fibro etc...
Healing hugs x

I don't often dream of her my sister.. I miss her desperately too... I k ow she is. Yay and when I have dreamt of her she has always been one step ahead of me ..
Do you think you could be feeling a bit depressed ? It's quite common with fibro .Its a very isolating illness and of course we have times of feeling like we can't go on and crying we are humans not robots and I think crying is very healing when you feel like you're on the edge and those hot fat tears come eventually you will feel better.
Why not ask you're daughter if she can come visit I know when you're in pain it can be hard to have visitors but when you are feeling better maybe .You are not alone we are here for you . Take care try not to worry and rest up and if you have a partner hub get them to take the strain .Love peace and light .xx😇
Thanks Matrix... I have been diagnosed as being severely depressed and suffer with anxiety . I have always been emotional but just so much more lately. Sadly hi. Isn't helpful really and daughter won't come to me as we have a little dog! So alternative is to go to her.
Well sweetie if you think about it you are probably very tired all the time ( which makes more emotional) and it's a relentless illness and if you have severe depression you are bound to be emotional , and that's ok it's not nice for you I know that .
Does you're daughter live close or far away . Is she allergic to the dog ?
Are you getting treatment for you're depression if so could you have got used to dose and they are no longer working ? If so maybe see you're doctor you shouldn't have to struggle on , my hub is a mental health modern matron / manager and he has told me meds have to be changed . Sending you a loving hug because we all need to be hugged and loved and to know you're not alone , you're family on here care about you , here if you need me xxx😘😇
Where are our loved ones even our best mate when we need a hug and comfort- Fibro is a cruel disease, many think we make it up because they cannot see anything, only my late dad knew how much pain it can bring he had a similar illness cased fibrositis, he died 16 years ago but I still want him around. My X husband was cruel about having fibro his family mocked me a lot until his prescious daughter (daddys girl) was diagnosed -his attitude changed immensley, too late by then the hurt had well bedded in with me, and as practising church goer I often said he should feel thoroughly ashamed.
Hi is t fibrositis the same thing I'm a fellow Christian too and without God I would be dead because I really had a time when it was so bad I wanted to die ,it still is but my faith has helped me cope .xx😇
any "itis" is inflammtion of- my dad suffered from fibrositis-inflammtion of the the fibrious tissue over his body- believed to be a common complaint for X service men from the navy
Gentle hugs ... I think we all find ourselves more tearful at times ... it's part of living with chronic pain etc.
You would also likely be feeling more emotional because you had been dreaming of your mum. I know if I'm thinking a lot about my dad it makes me more emotional xxx
Oh I am sure we all feel very sad and emotional dealing with a chronic illness no matter what it is. Unfortunately it is the nature of the beast. But there is a difference between feeling low and true depression. I would say if your crying and feeling your loss so deeply continues for more than few weeks then I would suggest you go and talk with your GP. I do hope the wonderful support you find here from our lovely members can help you over this low period {{hugs}}
I do t worry about dying I worry about leaving those I love behind. Is that odd?

I feel the same I'm much more tearfull than I used to be I don't know if its the condition or cos of what the condition does to us.I guess if fibro affects the serotonin in our brains then maybe its a pysical reaction. I miss my mum too so I feel fr you I often dream of her,but it normally wakes. Me feeling happy.hope your feeling a bit better soon xx
I think most of our fibro-family will relate to being like this at some point. You do feel very isolated especially if you cant do anything but lie in bed and particularly worse if you live alone. I find I get so frustrated with not being able to do the things I used to do as everything can be so painful even taking a shower can exhaust me and some days I just have to stay in my pyjamas. It does get you so down at times it is such a weird condition. I end up having a good cry at times and it does give me some relief. Accepting it I find is really hard when I was such an active person as most of us Fibro-warriors were in fact I have discovered like myself that a lot of them never got time to relax as were busy running to and fro looking after family members or being Carers for years. My GP told me when I was first diagnosed if I didnt stop what I was doing or draw back a bit I would end up needing looked after, and at the moment it is heading that way. I hate asking for help when I was always so independent but my walking has got so much worse with painful knees and my back which are the worst. Some medication can make you feel down also so maybe worth have a wee read at the leaflet inside to check the side-effects. I do try to perk myself up by thinking about all those other people who are suffering much worse than myself though it's not easy at times and when you are so down you do think about your loved ones who have passed away. You are not alone in this it causes all sorts of emotions. Sending hugs hope you feel better soon x
