I’m new here!

Hi, my name is jem1510. I'm looking for advise on how to deal with jealousy in a platonic FP relationship. My FP recently became friends with someone and she told me this person makes her laugh like I do. I was also replaced on Snapchat as her ‘number 1’ best friend by this person. I can see this is becoming an intense and strong friendship for her and I don’t know where that leaves me. It’s caused me to go into a typical BPD reaction and I think I’ve caused some irreparable damage and she wants to take some space. I don’t know it’s just imagined out of my fears of abandonment or if it’s real, but I can see this person being to her what I have been over the last 4 year. I am still on a waiting list for counselling. I have learn to recognise that it’s irrational to be this way, people can have multiple close relationships. When someone gets a new friendship it is exciting for that person so I know maybe it can take precendent over older relationships for a while. I am currently respecting her wishes and giving her space. I just need to know how to navigate this. I have literally just read about reacting in the opposite way that you jealousy demands you to act. I probably could have used this a few days ago before I went full BPD cling on my FP. Does anyone have any tips on building self esteem and self worth from within ? Getting self worth that doesn’t come from the love you get from your FP ? Also any tips on how to act if I am with them both, so as to not let it show that I am jealous and uncomfortable if they are bonding and laughing together in front of me. Thanks 🙂

I feel hopeless 😞

I had a brilliant week, I finally could breathe a bit better but it seems that when I say I’m better something bad is always happening.
Last week I rant up about my home problems, tonight being at work I received a call from my dad telling me that my grandma cannot breathe.
Instant anxiety attack.
I’ve been to office talked with my shift manager and at break, I’ve met with my dad outside the workplace saying he’s gonna go home because she cannot breathe and to lend him some money.
I’ve talked with her at phone, it was disturbing for me., struggling to breathe, to say anything, I felt her pain, I can’t describe but it hurt me so much.
I went back,inside, booked emergency holiday, stayed till 2 and after went home.
I have an airplane to go home in 3h, hopefully she will not pass till than 😞
Like I told to my boss, I cant do it, it is so hard for me, knowing that she’s not feeling alright is killing me.
She grew me till i was 16-17, i cant she s like a Mom FOR me.
I’ve tried everything to try to calm down, I can’t, I had another anxiety attack ☹️
I don’t know what I’m gonna do because after I had my trauma at work, I don’t think I can go through grief 😖😭😭

True life - It isn't all roses, all the time🌹

The #struggle is real... 💜

When I first joined #themighty I wanted to try and remain as #positive as possible, creating #conversations and asking questions and getting advice from you guys that would in turn help me navigate the life of #fibromyalgiasyndrome 🙏🏻

I am in the first year of suffering with widespread #ChronicPain every day that I wake up, it even keeps me from sleeping at this point #painsomnia

As well as only being #diagnosed for around five months, it's like a rollercoaster ride that I can't seem to keep up with but... With many more lows than highs 🎢

I am alternating between #insomnia and I seemed to have developed some kind of #tinnitus that rages away in my head 24 hours a day! And being so #fatigued that I cannot physically keep my eyes open; when this happens I do not eat, I do not get dressed, I do not look after myself, in fact the most I can do on these days is go to the bathroom and back to #bed

I feel so #upset and occasionally #angry that I'm doing the bare minimum... Sometimes not even that! And I'm still #struggling 😢

My doctor checks in about once a month to extend to my sick note, reorder my medications ALL of which are #anxiety and #Depression related with no strong course of #Pain relief or any pain relief at all I am told to just stick with over the counter and to take them "as and when"

I am supposed to have appointments with the pain clinic but I'm still waiting...
I have reached out to an ME/Fibromyalgia support group local to me; but I'm still waiting...
I just feel like I'm getting #worse and all I can do is #wait for the #help to come and find me. I barely have the #energy to #fight and I don't have the #knowledge to know where to go from here

I know its still early days and many other people with #Fibromyalgia have had better and worse days and that it is a journey BUT my goodness this is hard! I just want to sleep and to not wake up because it all seems so overwhelming right now 😴

I don't even know where I'm going with this #post but I just felt as though I needed to let it out on a platform that is #caring and #understanding and has helped me feel like I #belong for the first time in a long time so thank you to anyone who has interacted with me and giving me #advice it really is appreciated!

Now I know why many of you go by "Fibromyalgia Warriors"... It's so true; every day is a battle with your own body... Except you're losing 😣

Hoping for better days to come! Today is not one of them and I need to remind myself that it's OK. But more often than not when you're deep in the thick of it, it becomes hard to see the light

Trying to be positive but some days it's much harder to reach. And even if no one reads this I'm just glad to get it off my chest 💜

Head above water

Day 2 worse than day 1. We ended up having a middleman (that volunteered) because I just couldn’t talk to him.

Asked the doctors to give me more anxiety meds like they did once before and they called me back same day and have them prescribed now.

On the bright side, I finished my antibiotics today.
