MIA

Fibro. stole my life before I even knew what was wrong with me and I still feel it's MIA. I may never get the old "Me" back, but I want something I'm at least happy and comfortable with.

I'm so tired of being a "complainer". I find myself complaining about one thing or another way too often. There are plenty of things to be upset over or annoyed with. Things like not having enough energy to do the things I want and need to do, never being able to finish anything, simple chores randomly knocking me out for a couple days, problems with food due to IBS (which comes a long with Fibro) and having nervous energy from not being able to be as active as I need to be. The list is longer, but you get the point. But I'm sick of hearing myself complain and can only imagine how those around me feel about it.

The only way to fix it is to make changes. No, I really don't want to. I'd like to just wake up and go about my day without having to be so aware of how and when I do things and what I eat, but I can't avoid it. I've already started making small changes to my diet, mostly just cutting back on processed foods and cooking more from fresh and scratch. Exercising is a problem right now because it causes me more problems than it helps. So the plan is to just try to get more chores done each week than the week before and build myself up to being able to exercise.

That's my Fibor rant for the day. I really wish this would reach more people because I would love to hear from other Fibro sufferers and how you are coping with it.
