Hi I’m struggling my name is Lyndsey I suffer with both fibromyalgia and bi polar and ptsd and I’m on meds for all conditions but I’m finding it so hard to manage them both as when I need to rest my bi polar often won’t let me I’m struggling both mentally and physically it’s just seems never ending x

Hi lyns and welcome there are alot of lovely members with fibro and other conditions , I have found personally the forum a kind welcoming place to talk even sharing tips to help , I’m hoping by visiting and chatting it might be helpful to you . If you would like to lock your posts it is only seen by our members and not out to the internet giving you more privacy and members tend to respond more if they see a post locked. Hope to see you posting again xxxx

That’s ok hunny it’s a pleasure to support you I have other conditions too most of them painful so thank you for you’re concern , we look after each other on here . I think with bi- polar and ptsd on top of fibro. you need a ton of support . Well I have taken everything I can last veing the cbd oil which seems to be doing something at least this seems to be taking a bit of edge off . Xx🤗🤗😇
