Support Groups
Close Fibromyalgia
I was diagnosed at 16. Triggered I think by my participation in body contact hockey. I was overwhelmed so completely with symptoms in high school that I was forced to drop out. My experience advocating for myself in high school was another major reason for that decision. Never felt comfortable talking about it b/c of others' reactions. The ratio of support I received in school was 50/50. Some teachers and staff were very discouraging and made things very difficult for me due to their ignorance.
Treatments
