Feel so sad and alone. Found myself snapping at my family and pushing them away. I’ve literally been vile to them today. I don’t know why?!! 😓

[Mandypandy1969]

I get the same. it's frustration, anger because I feel useless and worthless, a burden even though I am told I am not.. can't support myself, my mum and my best friend give me what they can but I feel awful. it's disgusting how we are treated by d.w.p. my benefit for e.s.a. been stopped. waiting for another court date as my date for this Friday has been cancelled due to unforseen circumstances. waiting even longer.

You know - I'm not in the UK, but I really feel bad for the folks whose money gets stopped with no warning, then they keep delaying the meetings to try to get it back. Here's hoping you get there soon!

Thankyou. It's the government's fault. They love stressing ill people by having to get them to fight for what we deserve. our illness is for life like lots of other people's illnesses. no wonder so many people have mental health problems, lose their homes and even take there own lives. xx

I don't think they do it for any reason other than some people will just give up, and they save money...

[Mandypandy1969 in reply to Hidden]

They put people through so much stress which makes people with mental health problems worse with there mental health. The government stop benefits from people who can't work. They waste so much money sending it abroad. They should look after there own people first. A lot of homeless people here now because of benefit loss etc etc. xx

Yeah - unfortunately, that is true here too...

Hi Saeahlddles,

Soft hugs. I think many of us can and do feel as you are, particularly if we're having more pain than normal or in a flare.

Please don't feel alone, as you can come here and talk to us at any time, and we all understand xx

Fibro makes you feel so frustrated that it is easy to snap at others but bear a thought for them too. Like you they didn't ask for you to have this affliction, it's invisible so it is hard for people to always have the empathy and compassion for what you're going through. If you keep pushing people away some will give up. Big hug to you kiddo and make sure you let those around you know that you love them.

Better days will come. After the night the sun rises.

Well, I don't know about you, but when I start to hurt (or sweat - a lot of that going on lately), the pain clouds my thought processes, I get easily frustrated and then I get really grumpy.. Even with my beloved hubby... I have to step back, get alone for a few minutes and remind myself that I am lucky beyond all belief or logic. Then breathe a little and I am in a better place mentally. Good luck with what you are dealing with sweetie..

[SarahIddles in reply to Hidden]

Thank you, that’s great advice, maybe I need to step aside for a few mins and just try and calm down.

I know I am extremely lucky I have the best family and I love them dearly.

[Hidden in reply to SarahIddles]

Yeah - me too - So many people on here are alone... They live alone, their families don't seem to want to engage with them, they can't get out to make new friends, and I have all of that. So, I just remind myself of what I have, give thanks for it, and go tell my hubby I love and if I need to apologize, I do that. It doesn't help the grumpies go away, but it does reset my mind set =)
