We are raising awareness of fibromyalgia in May and some of the fibro bloggers, in our facebook group, are sharing their quotes about fibromyalgia so that others can understand more about what is it like living with it.
Bethan Catherine Jones 'Just because I'm smiling doesn't mean I'm pain free. I live in pain 24/7 but I refuse to let it stop me'
Bettina Bier 'Just because I don't look sick doesn't mean i'm not. I still have all my fifty shades of fibro.
If you would risk to take a closer look you would see it.'
Julie Ryan That I hate missing out on things. So, when I cancel, know that I really didn't want to. I really want to be there with my friends and family.
Sue Ingebretson A fibromyalgia diagnosis isn't the finish line, it's the starting gate. Once you know you have it, the journey begins to figure out what's the best way to approach healing for YOU.
Rachel Barclift Living with Fibromyalgia is challenging, however I would rather spend my life in positivity and light than negativity and darkness.
Lynne Said Fibromyalgia doesn't sit comfortably on the conventional medical path, so when my doctor didn't have the answers my mistake was believing there was nothing else I could do, I was stuck, until I realised that there were many other paths back to health and I took them and so can you.
Carol Homer "Focus on what you can do, not what you can't. Forget about the unwritten social rules that dictate how your life should look. Adjust your perspective, be your own advocate and write your own story. You owe it to yourself to keep going for those brighter days."
Jennifer Passmore "Life, even without a chronic illness, is simply a constant learning process, and with chronic pain, we are always learning what we can do to improve our quality of life. We’re not going to let the pain defeat us, because we’re going to come out the other side of this, fighting. Not one person’s battle is the same as another, and we’re all fighting something different. Because, that is truly what we are, fighters, each and every one of us."
Terri Sutula "I realized early on in this process that I have a choice; I can be bitter about my circumstances, or I can let it make me a better person. I choose better."
Mandy Farmer "Don't leave me out of your plans. I may have to say 'no' but please don't give up on me."
Alisha Nurse When I say I’m okay, it doesn’t mean I’m not in pain. It just means I’m managing. I’m rarely pain free.- Nikki Albert Pace when you're having a good day and a bad day. Remember coping is a process, not an end game. And remember we can have a life it is just a different looking one; perhaps more mellow and a slower pace but a life nevertheless.
