    New and feeling a bit crazy!

    Hello! I was diagnosed last year with FM. I have had ongoing symptoms for the last 3 years. I am 48 years old, I have 2 grown daughters and a very understanding husband. Yet, I still feel a bit crazy. It's not that others don't understand my FM, it's that I don't understand it. Sometimes I...

    Can Fibro lead to a Nervous Breakdown?

    I've been throwing this around in my (anxious) mind all morning. If psychological trauma could have caused fibro, could being under continuous psychological duress push us into an official nervous breakdown that we cant' come back from? This might be off the wall, I think I'm in a panic...

    Hello everyone I'm new. I was diagnosed with fibro a few years ago but have been sick for over 10 yrs I'm 37. How bad do your pain get? The second I wake up I start crying and screaming.

    I was diagnosed with fibro in February 2015. I was also diagnosed with severe anxiety and a couple other things. I currently take Cymbalta 90mg, Flexeril 10mg, Mobic 15mg, and Ambian 10mg. Ambian does not in any way help me sleep. My panic attacks and constant body pain keep me awake no matter...

    Anxiety

    I just watched an item on tv about anxiety. I honestly didn't realize so many people didn't know how anxiety felt....I kind of assumed if you had been dumped or gone through a bad relationship break up or faced other even tougher times like getting a chronic illness or many other things like...

    GABA Deficient Anxiety

    Since the clinic wants to prescribe me a medication that is normally for depression and anxiety, I though it best to research some supplements as alternatives. So without posting a link, if you do a search for "Balancing Brain Chemistry with Peter Smith" you will come to his website. He cuts...
