Being single and chronically ill is so hard. When I need help, there is no one, I have to do it by myself some way, or not do it at all. Living on one income is so hard. I barely keep a roof over my head. I don't have any fun money,I sit home alone every day. I can't eat what I should or what I want to. I can't afford therapies, supplements, etc to help me feel better. I compromise everything in my life. I can't live the life I want. I can't be who I want. #Depression#Anxiety#Migraine
I had 4 glorious days off from work. I had a plan in mind to get my house in order and my room organized. My room currently looks like a bomb went off into it. I haven't touched my room. I did have a great Thanksgiving, I spent some one on one time with my Mom which I never do. I did get some housework and crocheting done. Why is it so hard to be satisfied with what I can get done? It is so hard to be kind to myself.
I have had hashimoto's since I was 24. I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia at 32. I am now 53 and my family still doesn't get me. It is so frustrating. I feel so alone and unsupported.
Feeling like I am never enough, I'm not important, I don't matter to anyone. I give all the energy I can to my family but other people get praised and honored and I get ignored and disrespected.
It’s a daily struggle just to want to get outa bed,muchless look at my unclean home&laundry. But i have made the word “Homebody” more meaningful. I have a dream husband(no he’s not a knockout with his looks)but he does everything for me,and anything I askhe does it. I don’t cook,I barely clean. He works 2 full time jobs. We owe several homes/property and vehicles are of no issue. Ok my problem is,I hate to go any where,ANYWHERE NO MATTER! He has bought and brought home to me so much.yes I know he loves me. But bc Iv been sick for 20+yrs two aftr three things of sickness would happen over the yrs. so now I’m among all the other crap,Iv been postmeno fir 6 yrs and thats when my anxiety started taking over my life. It has ruined so much with my husband and my 2boys and it has gotten so bad that two of my 6 gkids lived with me.1 I raised from 18mnths she’s 14 yo now and her lil brother was taking when she was about 8 and we were gona raise them together but I couldn’t do it and had him adopted outa the county. But my anxiety is trrrible everyday all day,both my boys deal with it too. And I hate to know the things Iv given them that causes pain and no sleep. But my nephrology said that my thyroid being so “over active”,hyperthyroidism,is what’s causing my to be so bad and my levels have been sky high then will drop very low,which I know is known as hasimotos disease. But I just wondered if anybody else makes up so much excuses to keep from leaving the house. I’m sorry Lord but I do bc I stay so tired exhausted worn out and weak!! I truelly hope nobody understands this pain bc to understand it you have to live #AnxietyDisorders#ChronicPain it daily. Thank you for reading this. Thanks for you all being here as I’m a newbie. Thanks again. God Bless. Have A great day!! #Chronicfatique #Hasimotosdisease #T1D#Fibromyalgia #DegenerativeDiscDisease#PostmenoAnxiety
