Hi im hoping you are okay out there, im sorry for ranting but i managed to go to milton keynes for a little while and i enjoy getting out but i felt down today im not sure why and felt tearful especially when i think about my old job which i miss alot okay it was housekeeping but i miss the people too. I sometimes feel quite down about things and cry when im alone. I just wanted to get this off my chest and how i feel hopefully things will get better as my fibro has improved in the last three years of having it which i am thankful for, thankyou for reading as i know u will all understand x😊😭❀️

It can be difficult when we remember how life was and what we used to be able to do. If it's the company you miss most - maybe think about ways that you can socialise more and meet new people. Do you have a hobby or interest that you can meet up with like minded people? Or maybe consider some voluntary work a couple of hours a week?

Hi FibrogirlYes, we grieve for our previous life sometimes and it is sad. Sometimes we measure ourselves by what we do not who we are. Self compassion can be helpful.

You are still you with lots to offer.

I hope you find an activity that helps bring the meaning back.

Look after you

Gigi
