This is my first post in this forum. I have chronic pain and that forum is kind of slow. Although I can understand why . Sometimes it takes real effort just to post something. I haven’t been diagnosed with fibromyalgia but I have a feeling that I can relate. Also know people that do. I just wanted to say that after reading many comments here I realize that I also feel like I’m “ lazy”, if I don’t “do” anything. I haven’t been able to work for years and it has demoralized me so much , making me feel useless and worthless. I found that I’m alway”tense”.
I cannot relax unless I’m drugged and I don’t want to be drugged anymore.
I try several various methods to relax my muscles but am unsuccessful.
Problem being that the tension and pain cause me to not be able to concentrate very well. It’s hard. I can’t stop thinking about what I’m feeling all the time.
This viscous cycling is constant. I just wanted to share that with you guys and I hope you don’t mind. Best to all.....
