I feel like my husband doesn't understand or want to understand my chronic illnesses and I feel like he thinks I'm lazy. Ever since my diagnoses of Fibromyalgia he has constantly complained that I sleep to much or how I need to get up and clean the room or take the dogs outside. All he does is play "World of Tanks" on his computer whenever he's awake...Ugh I just wish he knew what I go through day in and day out. I miss my old life when I could get out and walk and not have any pain. I used to walk everywhere or even ride a bike and I can't do that now. I cry when I'm alone because I get so frustrated at the pain and my limitations now. I just wish he would understand this because it's so tiring...

I'm sorry you have Fibro. I have it and its changed my entire life. Maybe take him along to one of your Doctor appointments? It helped my husband understand that Fibro is indeed real and how it can and will screw up day to day living.

I have tried all the "meds" for it , never got any relief.. I depend on meditation and yoga and of course diet is a huge when battling Fibro.

I'm so sorry

I hope taking your hubby along to see your T is an option as it may just be the catalyst for change you need.


It's easy to say "don't expect them to understand, they can't" but when their ignorance impacts us negatively, its imperative that they get clued up. It's more than enough to have to deal with these issues alone, having our loved ones add to that plate of bullshytt is just not an option.


I hope you like it here at our online home and that you make lots of friends here.


I know I sure have *smiles and winks as she references her sister ~Chris
