I am a 28 year old princess with fibromyalgia. I am trying to manage my disease, find a job that I can do from home, & retain my general awesome-ness. Read about how I pay my bills writing articles. You can also look into where I write.

A friendly Christmas reminder

I’m sure that it can be annoying at times to have a fibromite around. I’m not sure about this because I am a fibromite, & I love being around me. However, I’m sure that the constant attention to lighting, comfort, & fatigue can really grate on “normals” nerves. (Yes, I just coined the phrase normals, go with it.)

However, there is one important lesson that fibromites can teach “normals”. Relax. Grown ups can take naps too. Keep things simple. This is especially important at Christmas time when everyone seems to be stressing out about silly things. Remember, the holidays are supposed to be fun.

    Hi there,
    Just found your blog and wanted to contribute. First, I am 39 and was diagnosed with Fibro in July of this year. Second, I am the Executive Director of a non profit…a job I had before I was diagnosed, and a job I intend to keep…

    It isn’t easy working in a high stress career, generally more than 40 hours per week…but I am proof it can be done.

    When I read other people’s stories, particularly if they are very active, I tend to assume they are fortunate enough not to have the worst case scenario of fibro. So, in case you see things the same way, I want to let you know that I think I have a fairly difficult case. I don’t have days without pain, I have all of the lovely accompanying illnesses, like IBS, migraines, miscellaneous skin rashes, etc…but, I am finding ways to creatively deal with that crap, and still be productive…in work and at home.

    So, I have no other point, except to say that you can have a great life with fibro, and you can be empoyed in a way that is fulfilling…and I hope this is encouraging in some small way…

    Happy Holidays,
    JA

    A merry christmas for you to. Fibro sounds bad although i don’t know much on it or how bad it is. I do wish you a full recovery though and hope you get well soon.
