    The Depression Letter

    Reading the Fibromyalgia letters made me think I should write one like it, only talking about Depression. So I just now did. And here it is: I have spent more of my life depressed than I have spent being not depressed. Most people don't think that is possible, but believe me, it is. Many people...

    Beds and pillows

    My bed is about 11 years old, so I'm due for a new one. I've heard about beds made for chronic pain sufferers. Does anyone have any insight into them? Are some pillows better than others?

    It all makes sense now

    Ups and downs - wish for some normality

I woke with painful legs and feeling very tired, after a trip to do some shopping I came home in agony again, took some codeine and went to bed and slept. This condition gives me no control...

    Do you experience a reset in activity tolerance??

    Hi folks, I've been sick for about a year now, and my doc has finally given me a "tentative" diagnosis of fibro. I really wanted the opportunity to speak with folks who have the condition and find out if what I'm experiencing falls in the realm of fibro possibility I guess. Last February, I...
