" It's like starting a whole new life all over again and again . Lost my job and the ability to work and support myself, self esteem, daily function ability to societal expectations. I have found more satisfying life moments since having to drop out of the "race" and being forced to the sidelines. I still contribute in all ways but not as the dynamo I was. "

" Fribromyalgia changed my life totally everything that I used to do a few years ago has gotten ten times harder.... I have made alot of changes in my life to try and cope with it... I all ways knew something was wronge but i didn't know what and it was stressful which made it worse... I have lost my independence the thing that i treasured most. I can't leave my house for a walk with out someone going with me. And im having a hard time with boys, i used to have a easy time asking guys out now im single and cant get out of it... I feel like people don't understand and they judge too easly. "
