I'm so sick and tired of people saying to me, "well you don't look ill, maybe all you need to do is get a good night's rest and do some exercise and all your pain will go away". Like waving a magic wand will cure everything.

@thresherCassie I am sorry to hear that... and it is hard to live with a chronic illness, especially when the doctors won't even admit that there is a serious problem. It took me years to get properly diagnosed. Keep trying. It will get better in some respects.

Oh my do I completely understand this. "You look fine to me. Maybe you're just depressed? Lighten up, it will be ok?" Not even in the ballpark of ok. You don't know until you know. Honestly I don't want anyone to know. Ever. Even the people who don't get it. Hugs hun!!!
I know how you feel. It wasn't until I got an apartment in a disabled only building that I was taken seriously when it comes to pain, especially migraines. Sending hugs and sympathy š¤ š¢
@faerywyrm it took my husband three years to actually believe me when I said there was something wrong with me. Even now I sometimes think there's more than meets than the eye, because when I was diagnosed I was told I was borderline lupus but nothing has ever come from it. I have symptoms but it doesn't show up in blood work
