I am a busy middle aged mum. I run a business from home and raise two children with my husband. I am one of the lucky ones. Most of the time my husband is caring, helpful and understanding. I try not to begrudge any wobbles he may have. It's not easy living with someone who is only a shadow of herself. He has his own health issues to deal with too.
I am choosing to remain anonymous. I would like the freedom to tell my story honestly, with no shame or feelings of being judged. I think it will be easier if I can't be identified. Maybe if I ever conquer the feelings of self disgust and shame I will be able to shout about who I REALLY am? Until then. Fibrodrops it is! Fibrodrops, because I am going to shower you with drops of me and my life. Just drops of it.
For me
This is going to be my therapy. This is going to help me accept that I am what I am. No more, no less. I am not choosing this lifestyle. I am not lying back and enjoying what Fibromyalgia has done to my life. I am learning to accept this version of me. Learning to find joy in the small things. Count my blessings. Enjoy some things in my days.
For you
Maybe, my being open and honest, can help some of you out there, also walking this walk and talking this talk? Maybe you will read things on here and see that you are not alone, you are not crazy or lazy, selfish or failing?
