Hi! I've been on this site for about a week, you get good advice here and lovely people who listen. I suffer with depression and anxiety, I also have chronic joint pain 24/7. So I understand about frustrating illnesses, both of mine are invisible illnesses as well so people often
look at me as if I'm putting it on.
Welcome ❤️ ❤️ -

Hi @ScottishGal
“Good Mourning”

You will find many members in similar situations as yourself.
Yes I do find “hidden disability’s” are more of a disability to be honest.
Her’s some info for you with regards to “chronic pain”
