    I have blue eyes too - would be nice to think of myself as kind hearted.  I dont feel very kind hearted presently as I snap at everyone and everything and whine like  a broken AC unit sad lol

      thank you both, I appreciate your support - this forum is a lifeline.  Seems the only place where we get true understanding of how difficult it is to live with this condition.  I have a friend with congestive heart disease.  She looks well but really isn't.  Those around her know she has limitations and gets tired easily and needs to rest, they understand when she's slow and has mobility issues and all rally round.  Somehow fibro doesn't get the same level of understanding and it's so hard to explain how our exhaustion isn't just 'tired' its a whole body attack when we can't function properly at all.  If I hear one more 'how about we go for a nice walk to cheer you up' when all I really need is some quiet time to revive.....  If I had the energy/physical ability I know I'd probably wield an axe and chop all their heads off ... giggle.

      Hi Loxie No one understands only those that have it. yesterday I tried to explain it to my sons best friend. he turned to me said its all in your head thenmad and then said you do look wellmad I said if only you could see what pain Im in And how Im feeling exactly. Last week a neighbour called round to see me, she asked how I was I said how I was feeling she changed the subject. I felt hurt by her action but I shouldnt of been it appears to be the norm Ive found people just dont have a clue and dont give a damn xx

      Giggle giggle..wheres that axe..no where's that energy..lol....if only our condition was more out there..maybe people would understand more...I must admit though the people that matter most to me..do understand..maybe it's having it sooo long...plus I've put very strong boundaries up and I just don't tolerate people who aren't that understanding and can be cruel...I just cut them off...Ive learned that I need to look out for me..hmm ...sounds a tad selfish, it's my protection..but it has worked..unfortunately well meaning comments can hurt, so I just don't allow them to make me feel any worse..if it's not helping..then it's hurting...and ai just won't go back for more...I know it sounds bad...they might be sad..but I'm not bad..it's worked wonderful all these years..often I have had people come back and apologise when they realize I'm just not that bothered with them and their comments anymore..O' well meaning family/friends...we just have to make them see the best way we can..I do sound a bit harsh there don't I?? But I guess I have to look out fir me..who else is going to... Have a lovely day luxuries and be blessed..:-) xx
