Hi, today is the first day of the rest of my life :)
That is everyday! I stay positive and am lucky enough to view life in general with Fibromyalgia. I have found that the key is to stay active. Not always easy when fatigue sets in but I'm my own motivator as we all are. So my message is Happy thoughts and get to stepping. Take control of your well being!

Hi Swarner... and welcome to the forum. Sounds as if you have a good attitude. I know that motivation is great for the fatigue part, but not so easy with the intense all-over deep pain, right?

Anyhow, you'll find a lot of support here. How long ago were you diagnosed?

I was diagnosed 10 years ago around the age of 40. And yes I have a lot of all-over deep pain. At times I want to be outside of my body. It's hard to explain. I try my best to stay positive but like any other I have challenging times because of the muscle and joint fatigue and unrelentless pain. Support is always needed and welcomed.
Thanks so much!
 
Hello and welcome to the forum. I agree with you in the fact that support is a big important part of dealing with and living with fibro. When we lack support in our lifes it is so easy to fall into depression. Everyone on this forum tries hard to be supportive by voicing concerns of others and sharing how fibro effects them and whhat has worked or not worked, in the way of medications and other coping skills.

Please jump in and post where ever you want and share your own coping hints and ideas with us. ask questions and provide answers to others. we are very happy you have joined the forum. See you around............:)
