Covid & Confused

[FibroGirlUK]

I’m super lucky to have survived Covid19. For a couple of hours it was touch and go. I really couldn’t breathe. Asthma inhalers, steam etc. helped. Don’t try and be a hero and cook etc it will flatten you!

Last year started off really badly medically for me My ‘friends‘ decided to launch a hate campaign, which in a small village was horrific. It all centred around my being unkind to someone. I’d love to have another defence, but I was actually asleep at the time and would never have uttered the words attributed to me.

A year on, one of the bullies tried to take her own life in a very staged way. Not in the privacy of her own home, on a very busy stretch of coastline. Attention, rather than the real distress.

I absolutely get the depression, the pain etc. What I don’t understand is the need to hurt other people. It’s vile. She sends awful messages to my partner, who has never understood why I tried to help her in the first place, and it just never ends. 14 months of harassment and crazy nasty behaviour.

She thinks Fibromyalgia is nothing. It’s not an illness.

Unfortunately we live in a hamlet and any action against her is detrimental to us. Crazy but true.

Good morning 🤗🤗 I am dealing with same situation right now. Its been going on for about 2 years. The thing is there all old age citizens!!! If it wasn't so soul destroying it would be laughable.

I guess been only 63 I'm a relative young chick on the block 😂 But I get it. No matter what age you are Intimidation and Bullying is unforgivable.

They don't understand me or my illness and they don't really wish too. That's ok but that does not excuse what they are. We moved to a close knit village about 6 years ago for the good of my health. I knew it would be hard with all the cliques that would have formed over the years. But boy if only i knew just how bad it was going to be and the mega effect it was going to have on my health.

Just remember a bully is only a bully while you let them bully you. I'm in the process of really shaking this lot up. Sunday was the final straw. With the woman's son next door trying to intimidate with his bad language. Mind you he was doing from behind a 6 foot hedge lol 😂 all bullies are cowards.

Please don't feel alone with this. And don't let them see you suffering it only makes their day. I'm always around should you need a friendly ear. Take care, stay safe and don't let the beggars grind you down xx

Sorry to read of this, I hate bullies but singled out face to face they sometimes are not so brave especially if they have a fan club behind them for support. They only win if they get a reaction, ive learnt so far silence is golden xxx

Absolutely true I know from years of experience of being bullied by a narsissictic attention seeking neighbour that if you don't give them the attention they crave they'll leave you alone!

Dunno about clever, I suffered it for a good 15 years before I caught on and sometimes still feel intimidated when I see her but put on a brave face and walk past with my head held high!

God bless him and you, when you've been sited by a stalker like that it causes a knock on that spreads through the whole family! I know this seems a bit off topic but I'm convinced that the control this person had over me contributed to my fibro! You take the best of care 👍

That's fine when your dealing with one person. But as most people know bullies work in groups. Otherwise bullies would not exist. 🙁🙁

It's called stress. And yes it does have a major impact on fibro and all illnesses.
