It wasn't until December of 2010 that I really knew what this was myself...unfortunately I am well aware of it since I have it...I live with it daily.
I found these two videos to be the best in helping someone who doesn't have to deal with Fibromyalgia or CFS understand just what a day in the life of someone who does is like - they are short and to the point....they cover it really well - I can honestly say that the symptoms outlined in these videos are very true and that I've experienced them all at one time or another, sometimes several all at once but deal with some kind of pain or fatigue daily to some degree.
If you know or love someone who has to deal with this terrible condition, please take a few moments to watch these videos and try to understand them and what they are dealing with better. Although they might look just fine on the outside, which many of us do - we aren't ok...not in the least bit.
Just take a moment and try to imagine yourself in their shoes........
A big thankyou for sharing your blogs and telling us your story from with in yourself.
ReplyDeleteIt helps people like myself who don't suffer, understand.
That's why its important to shout out your story, and others like it, so the rest of the world can see through as not being an invisible illness.
