Dealing with Chronic Pain at Work

I had to quit working due to a quick decline. My job definitely did not understand nor care due to the field. I babysit to make my own money and a small business. My first year leaving the work force was the hardest emotionally, second guessing myself, but I know now it was necessary.

I agree Sabrina...working from home is best but if I were you, do not leave your job!! It took me 5 yrs, including 2 hearings but just acquired disability!! Get ur MD to give you time & notes for times you need to be out sick & leave that way, with disability!! I did not do that...& should have!! With disability... you can work, to some degree, so then you do bookkeeping or other work from home gig!! All the best...I do have a natural source, no side effect remedy that can help you to feel your best but don't want to break any rules here!! Just trying to help...

Diagnosis is a very stressful thing to accept because the diagnosis makes it real.. try to process that & it may make your symptoms subside (it helped me) when it comes to work.. try to keep in mind most places are not aware of what fibromyalgia is & may be dismissive but that’s from their own closed minded problems.. it may be a little hard but I think a good understanding person will be there!

I think that if you’re still able to work then working from home might be the best option. I hope you find something! 💕
