I find it very difficult to tone down my expectations for my life.

But instead I have a part time job which I don’t care about, I still live with my parents, and I am too ill to bother with dating.

Basically, life sucks.

I’d love to hear what you guys have to say :)

So fellow fibromites, I went ice skating today to celebrate my 22nd birthday and I really enjoyed it! I’m aching and sore now since I waaaayyy over-did it, I am nervous to see how my body decides to punish me though.. but I had an amazing time and absolutely loved it!

Fibromite?

i’m sure you’ve seen it floating around.. I’ve been using the term forever & an not really sure of the origin. My first use of the word in this blog is in 2009.. A Fibromite, simply put, is a person with the medical condition of Fibromyalgia. By extension, Fibromites are people with Fibromyalgia.
