I’m not sure if I’m making any sense but what constitutes overdoing things. I only ask because even though it’s an individual thing I’m stuck with the whole thing.
I’ve had a really bad flare up and I keep wondering what was it that I overdid.
For example if you hoover pop to the shops take the dog out and you end up in more pain then that’s a sign you’ve overdone it but does that mean all you can do is just take the dog out and not anything else or whatever. Also is a flare up just due to overdoing it even if you are pacing things out or are there other reasons. I just don’t get what exactly it is I’m doing that’s causing them.
Have to be honest sometimes the pain scares me as I don’t know how our bodies are able to bear it. It can get so intense and excruciating I feel like I’m going to snap in half.
Can’t manage to even meditate with the level of pain I’ve been getting as I just cannot concentrate long enough as sometimes the pain can be so sharp
Sorry it’s such a glum conversation but that’s how I feel today. Struggling with absolutely everything I can’t believe I’ve come to this
I’m awaiting decision on PIP but I hate how long it takes cause we are left struggling for so many many months when if there was a 6-8wk turnaround our lives could’ve been made a little easier.
I’m in need of the help but it’s hard to portray it on a phone assessment. I sent off a diarised account of seven days from 12am-12pm as thought they’d get a better idea of what it feels like. I hope they grant it me. I will do the mandatory consideration& appeal if it’s a no but it frustrates me that you’re completely genuine and yet these appeals are so exhausting, stressful& so time consuming..how can that be good for people with fibromyalgia or indeed any debilitating long term condition.
The whole system needs a shake up.
Phew I feel better now..haha.
