Connecting with others who understand my invisible struggles

I want to connect/communicate with people that understand me and my feelings. I need to feel less alone. Being successful doesn’t always mean stable emotionally. My disorders and diagnosis are invisible but very real.

Your not alone. Somedays my pain is debilitating and exhausting. Having invisible diseases there are alot of people who won't acknowledge it. What helps with your fibromialga pain ? I take ibuprofen which doesn't work for that type of pain. And gabapentin. My doctor won't prescribe any pain meds. ....I hope you're feeling okay. 🤗

I use Naproxen Sodium (Aleve) for my pain and medical marijuana(MM)also helps. I know that MM can be controversial, but I only smoke before bed. It really helps me sleep and getting good rest makes a huge difference in my ability to deal with my pain.

Hi there! As some one who is at their financial close to rock bottom, but not being depressed for the first time in maybe 20 years... I understand that from the other side. Just finally figuring out I CAN'T work and be alive.
