    Hi, nice to meet you... I'm Exhausted. First Contact Back in 2007 I was working an emotionally taxing counseling job, that I loved, but for a shy and introverted, sensitive person it was probably too much.

    Falling for Someone with FM

    I've recently met a woman that has FM and I'm falling for her pretty badly.

    Fibro Caused by PTSD?

    I was reading the information on the site and it said that fibro can actually be caused (they think) by trauma. I find this fascinating because I have a long history of trauma in my life, and no one else in my family has fibro. There seems to be no basis for where or how I contracted it...
