been in my dressing gown for a few days, and spent a lot of time in bed. Just feel a bit strange, don't know why. Plus part of me just can't be bothered.

Hey Sharon, gentle hugs.
I've been in my PJ's since Thursday. And like you just cannot be bothered. Not bothered to shower or wash my hair or even cleanse my face - the house needs a good going over and dishes are piling up - and I just don't want to know. Mr Fibro has a lot to answer for!
Love,
Carol xx
love and hugs if you ask for help please do I spent 5 months in the can't move or do state until I even had the energy to call for help.
I now let myself have a few days off and then force myself to get on.
By that I mean putting clean pjs on lol
Just do one thing however small and you will feel better.
More hugs x
hi to all thank ou for your lovely comments My gorgeous partner has just given me a shower (I think he got as wet as me!!! well he does have to kneel nest to the bath to do it) so at least I feel clean now. Hi christine my GP is fully aware of my depression, but know that it is down to fact of how much pain that i am in, and also because i can not do many things anymore. I can't even dress myself. Thing is my fibro and oseteoarthritis is really playing up so it is more comfortable to wear my dressing gown or pjs.
As for being in bed, I have this idea that I might be more comfy in bed, I wish!!!!
Just wish I could get some respite from the pain, then maybe I could be more positive, yes I know having a positive attitude will help. As my partner says "when you are feeling at your lowest, that is when you have to fight your hardest" But as everyone in this family knows, it is SOoooo hard when your in pain!!!!
Probably bored you all by now!!!! soft and gentle hugs to you all.

Sharon I,m in the same predicament. Spent days and days in bed over the past month. It makes sense that if your comfeyiest in bed then that the place your going to stay. They say do what your body tells you. I watch Jeremy Kyle ev ery morning and then I get up,or force myself to get up. Takes ages and its the same thing day in and day out. Yes I'm depressed. Anti depressants dont help - its the pain you want taking away,as its that which is causing you to stay in bed. GP knows about my depression and has given me the Samaritans number and crash team number. I sleep OK - just cant get up and could go on sleeping all day, but then you start to have weird dreams.
In agony now sitting on settee watching Corrie (doesnt take much to please us does it).
Read a very good write up if anyone out there gets the Sunday Observer or it may have been
The Telegraph about a wife whose husband had ME. Wont go into the details, but knew exactly why he did what he did. My husband is sick of me pushing these articles under his nose and being told to read them. He's p....d off with me now. Cant blame him.
Anyway you're not alone, we're all in the same boat....just remembered haven't had my hair washed for over a week....
that is so true!!! prob is when i have a shower or bath i feel great for about an hour, then the pain comes back with a vengence!!! can't win either way, can we??
hugs
sharon xx
i thought i was the only one who stays all day in bed for days and has no inclination to do anything at all not even to eat. i have been like that now for seven days and now dont even answer my phone or door ...... this way i dont become a problem to others..... petal
I'm just glad I'm not alone. Don't know why buy I always feel guilty for staying in pjs all day. It so much more comfortable.... And postie is quite used to me by me lol hugs to you all (((((hugs)))))
I feel the same lately. I don't get dressed sometimes till well into the afternoon. It's warmer in your jammies too.
I am suffering from depression and anxiety big time, but I won't take the duloxetine my GP has prescribed, scared it will make me feel worse, Had it before and am sure it kept me awake at night.
I;'m dressed now but after a phone call about offering me a solicitor to do with my car accident in April I'm more anxious than ever.
It's quite a pleasant day out there but I'm still stuck on the pc for company, as I am alone here. Hate it.
Try to do at least one thing or write down some things that need doing, and do your best to do one or some of them. This is what i have been told to do by a counselling team.
(((Hugs))) to you all.
