Exhausted beyond belief

This is my 40 hour week job. I stand and flag mostly in the heat and when I'm not flagging I'm raking gravel or asphalt. And on top of all that I started my second job for Census. Recently my symptoms have gotten WAY worse and it's hard to get through each day. My mom keeps telling me to go back to the doctor, but I hate having to go through all that process of tests and waiting, again. Just looking for support. #fibrolifefighting #fibropain #KidneyDisease #Undiagnosed #Lupus #HashimotosThyroiditis #RheumatoidArthritis

how do you get out of the stuck

I have had a terrible day of fibromyalgia flare up and severe anxiety. I havnt been able to leave my house. the thought of leaving the house makes me so scared and anxious that I have started being sick. I'm shiver, shakey and sometimes it gets so much with so many thoughts running through my head I just want to bang it against a wall.
its it's all so exhausting . I just sat on the sofa watching tv with my weighted blanket which seemed to be the only thing that calms me down.

does anyone have any tips. I'm really struggling to get out of this stuck place.

Fighting

After 20 years of fighting fibromyalgia, I’ve come to the conclusion that all I need to continue to do is FIGHT!! I need to continue to fight hard and through my pain daily. I need to keep walking my 25 minutes from the train to my office to show I can do it! I need to keep kickboxing even though I get questioned on all my bruises.... all in all I’m almost 40 with a six year old that can run circles around me. This is not the life I wanted with pain all the time and having people harass me at the train station because I park in the handicap parking. Just because I don’t look sick you do not know me, my life or family. You mainly do not understand what I deal with on a daily basis to stay “normal”....no I’m not normal... I take prescription medications to feel as normal as a lot of people. #fibrolifefighting
