Fibro confusion

[Namtox]

How many of you lovely people get so frustrated when you are having the worst day by feeling really down and full of pain and someone tells you how well you look. Inside you want to say how you feel but you thank them whilst thinking if only you knew yet questioning in your head “are you just saying that to make me feel better” on a positive note with Fibro fog I never get board because I forget what I was up to and start again.

I don't get frustrated when people don't notice that I am not doing well. I am glad that they can't tell, because I don't want people to worry or give me pity. And occasionally it also helps me, if they don't notice, because then I can distract myself from the pain for a while by being around others who don't know about it. I don't see it as a negative, because I try to hide it and that means I am succeeding.
