Having a rough time today, but who isn't?
I am having a rough time lately coping with the realities of living day to day with chronic pain, chronic fatigue, chronic brain fog; just not being able to be myself! I miss having energy the most. The physical and emotional energy to be fully engaged with life.
Fibromyalgia is my daily friend. Sleeping through the night is a rarity, and then waking up is all pain, for a while. I finally get going, only to remember to take my meds and eat so I don't get sick. Bop around for a few hours, sometimes productive, sometimes not. Then the pain sets in, the anxiety, the fatigue, the sheer wretchedness that is my daily life. By evening I am so wracked in pain that I can't function, only to fall into a restless sleep...
