When it rains it really pours ...

My husband was arrested Friday . He was prvoked in the bar across the street from my houes Thursday night . I've been on my feet so much that last night I began to have dizzy spells and every inch of me hurt . I still managed to get things done until today ... I began to get so dizzy that I fell twice thank the Gods that a friend of mine has been here to watch over me ... I took myself to bed and slept several hours . I'm feeling a bit better now . However now it's crashing in on me that my hubby is not here he's in jail ! The man who provoked the fight is here in town walking around free too . I live in Arizona the laws here are so strange , for instance you can beat someone up with your hands and it's a ticket . But if hit the guy and break the skin on his face or break a bone , say a nose then it's a felony !??? I know this is a long vent but I really need to get it out ...

    How stressful this is for you! And as you can tell that makes FM worse. I pray everything works out and you can feel well again.
    Take a long hot shower or bath, sometimes that helps me.
    Take care!

    Raven, I am sending you healing energies along with gentle hugs. I hope everything works out for you two. I can imagine how frustrating it is right now.

    Well, for awhile there I was feeling good, especially after going to
    the chiropractor.  However now, something else isn't right.  I don't
    know if it's severe fatigue, stress, depression, or what but I can't
    function correctly in everyday life, I can't get up in the mornings.
     Even if I try, I get up and I feel shakey and almost feel like I'm
    having an axiety attack.  I'm so behind on my bills, I'm going to be
    completely destitute soon.  I feel like people don't understand plus I
    feel like I'm a lazy jerk who is inconsiderate...  I keep thinking to
    myself, "I'm just too lazy" but is that really it?  No matter how hard
    I try, I just can't function!  I've even gone so far as to thinking I
    should be committed to a mental institute to where I could just sleep
    the rest of my life away.  Truely, I really want to die but I couldn't
    do that to my family and friends.  Is there anyone else out there who
    feels the same way?  If so, how to YOU deal with the normal demands of
    life.  What should I do!?  Does anybody know?!  Please.. HELP ME!  I
    BEG OF SOMEONE!!  I can't live like this anymore!!

    No, you aren't lazy...you are experiencing FIBRO FOG.  The worst part of Fibromyalgia, Aaron,is the mental strain it has on us...Is it depression?  Not necessarily.  It is something NOBODY knows what the hell it is.  There are days I truly cannot get out of bed...I urge you to contact your physician immediately and tell them of your problems....there are meds out there that can help....I guess I'm one of the fortunate ones that can handle my pain without meds, and I am VERY fortunate that I do not have to work....I truly can just do nothing when the Fibro Fog sets in...sometimes it can last for days, right now I'm going on a good month or 2...I lost 15 lbs in a month from not eating..I had NO APPETITE..nothing..survived on sips of Coke...anxiety attacks set in...starting feeling like I was going insane...finally, my appetite came back, but I'm slipping right back into that again..I can feel it..more anxiety attacks and losing my appetite again...I think everyone that has Fibro can feel your pain...the normal demands of life are there, yet, somehow, Fibro makes it hard for us to OVERCOME the feeling of just wanting to stay under the covers..I truly do not know how other people handle this..because, I don't handle it...I can't force myself to do anything...even eat.  BUT, I refuse to take meds too, but, you don't have to suffer...get yourself in to the Dr. and get some help...
