Hi
I have stage 6 fibromyalgia. I had to leave my career as a senior teacher because my Head teacher put so much pressure on me. I now work part time as a university lecturer; they are amazing with me; I can even work from home if I have to.
I have lost a lot of friends because of being ill all the time, which doesn't help my depression. But I'm also anxious about meeting new people.
I have a wonderful husband and son, who help me so much. I'm not sure what I'd do without them. In February I got a puppy who is training to be my assistance dog; she helps me emotionally already!
The only thing that helps is if we go to a warm climate (not that we get to go to one that often). -
Hi @Ehit.
Welcome to your new home & online community, please let us know how we can help/support you with ????
That's a great idea with the puppy, I do love the thought of having a friend who is not judgmental !!!!

Please have a good look at our "online community" where you can help your self to lots of people willing to help/support you through your tough times.
I look forward to having a chat with you at some point !!!!
