    anger

    Anger at..... The pain and the exhaustion. The fibro fog that makes me look like I have Dementia. The longing to go back to work but knowing that its impossible. The feeling of being useless.

    Supposedly Fibro, but perplexed about one thing...

    So after hurting and aching and moping around for years, my rheumatologist thinks I may have fibromyalgia. And it makes a certain amount of sense -- in my mid 30s I really shouldn't ache all over this much, a poke to basically every trigger point makes me jump out of my skin, and the list of...

    I work a job “supervising” janitorial work but I’m much more hands-on than I probably should be and tend to work just as hard as my staff.
