I had a bad fall when I was 19 and that is when all my problems started. The specialist I saw also said that fibro is usually kicked off by a traumatic event or accident xx

I used to feel down all the time the same as you there were days when i just couldn't be bothered. Then i started practising meditation/self hypnotism there are loads of free stuff on the internet to try out, i then came across a hypnotist Adam Eason (google it) his website has loads of free stuff even videos where you can have some fun and practise self hypnotism technics his work is very refreshing and has made a big difference to my life and coping with F/M. You will have nothing to loose by checking him out and you can even send him e-mails about your problems with health. He will go out of his way to help you.
best wishes

Tried the after sun last night after a bath. I had some left over from the summer, it did help! I find the all over itching worse at night and I can feel really irritable, so any rief is welcome. Started my medication last night too, hubby said I snored all night lol! Makes a change, I'm usually wide awake listening to him. First full nights sleep in months, usually up to the loo 3-4 times every night. I think the after sun is here to stay, helped a lot. Thanks. Hope youre doing ok. Best wishes.

started work at the pharmacy and found that I could still interact with people, but I'm finding even three hours a day hard to manage at the moment.
Before my diagnosis I though I was really loosing the plot-I'd had so many doctors do x rays scans blood tests, you name it, but all said there was nothing wrong. To finally be diagnosed was actually a relief in a wierd kind of way-I cried for the rest of the day, but don't know if it was with relief at finally being told I wasn't crazy or that I have a condition that I have to learn to manage at 31 years old. I'm now 36 and like you expected to have a happy heathly working life and get to retirement age doing something I love, but that is looking less likely by the day.
I'm glad I found this forum as people seem lovely and are always ready with good advice and support.
good luck and hopefully chat again xx

I know what you mean about before being diagnosed you feel like seriously am I going crazy because it is like nobody believes you. I'm so sorry you are so young and going through all of this.
Prayers and yes we will chat again!
I know I am glad I found this site. I love people that is what I miss the most!! I cared about them as others sometimes really don't it's just a job.
