Always Strong Enough

Just when I think I'm not strong enough to get through the pain it seems like more strength comes out of nowhere. All I can say is that I'm truly blessed like that because nothing else can explain it. It's been over 2 years since this excruciating pain has knocked me to my knees over and over again. I had pain before and I still have that pain but it's nothing compared to this pain that hits me at the worst times ever. I've said it before and I feel it's worth saying again...I never understood why those with illnesses like Fibromyalgia chose to give up. I do now and that's the scariest realization I've ever had. If you are newly diagnosed with an illness like Fibro or if your symptoms have just started prepare yourself now because it will get worse. Save your strength, reduce your stress as much as possible and build a support system now because you might think your strong enough to handle it but when the really bad pain hits it changes you and it changes the way you think. Fibromyalgia as a whole changes you, and no matter how hard it gets I still believe it's for the best.

I hope everyone is having a good day/night. Gentle hugs and lots of love!
