hey everyone
I just wanted to share where people will understand. I am 39, diagnosed with ME at the age of 23 after about six months of tests and various doctors appointments. I have a huge spectrum of symptoms that seem to come in cycles, I will have months of bad stomach problems, then breathing issues and all the time anxiety. I am a mum of two (married for two years but together eight) and somtimes I just feel like I don’t have enough time in the day to do everything. I also work relief shifts in a care home. I feel like a juggler with so much in the air. I’m scared that if I go to bed for too long I could just stay there for weeks. Somedays I don’t feel too bad and others I ache from head to toe. I love my life and my job but do you ever want just a whole day to rest? I feel guilty if I lay in as my husband works all week and needs rest too. Anyway I just wanted to have a vent of things I keep inside. Many thanks
