If you google "M.E. ????shire" (insert your county) you might find a support group in your area. Or search for an online M.E.forum.
There's nothing more helpful than talking to others in the same boat. (I have fibromyalgia which is a similar thing so I know how you feel)
All the best. :o)
Wiil do as you suggest thanks a lot. Sorry to hear you suffer similar, its horrible isnt it. Take care and I wish you the best of health, thankyou for helping.
You're very welcome Baby Jane.
Yes it is horrible, very depressing & isolating sometimes, especially if you're surrounded by fit friends & family who you feel are doubting what you say. That's why it's best to find other similar sufferers - if only to have a good grumble!
Hope you find some local help - I recently rang my gp's surgery to ask how many others there were with fibro in my area (with the idea of maybe starting a contact group) & after a quick tap on their computers I was surprised to learn there are 36! Maybe you could try that too.
Hi Robinia
Thanks sweetie, it is nice to have some one to talk to. Im having a bad day today ,and yes your right, folk around you tell you to get a grip, or give yourself a shake, they dont understand. If getting a grip or giving yourself a shake would be the cure then by all means thats what I will do. You have made me feel better and I hope your having a good day. Take care darlin, speak to you again and thanks once more for your support.
hi Baby Jane, glad to read you've had a few easier days... I've felt a bit better lately but I've done what I aways do when I get a good spell & gone a bit mad in the house & re-vamped the front room with a little help here & there (cleared clutter,new carpet). If you have to spend a lot of time in your home it's better if it looks nice I think.
I'm starting to 'droop' again now & I hate the dark, gloomy days like today.
Hope you stay on top of things for xmas....I'm sure I'll speak to you again before then. Take care xx
I am sorry to hear you have M.E too. Your right,it seems no one believes you and its hard to explain. I have had a good week, but keep wanting to sleep. I hope you stay on top of things and get loads of support, write to me any time you feel low. Robinia helped me a lot when they finally told me what was wrong. Keep your chin up. lots of love and take care
How are you doing? I will certainly email you,thanks for asking me. Sorry I have taken so long to reply but my internet keeps going down (it has its days too!!) Stay well,speak to you soon
