“When you have #Fibromyalgia, it’s a monthly, weekly—sometimes daily—thing, getting knocked down… Boom. A flare hits… immediately back to basic survival again… I’m suddenly just pushing through…struggling to do the day-to-day minimum.” buff.ly/aZa990h @SoIsFibroReal

"Fibromyalgia lends itself to vicious circle after vicious circle; it often feels like there’s no rhyme or reason to any of it…”doing the opposite” has helped me to break those vicious circles and...to even avoid getting into them in the first place." soisfibromyalgiareal.com/in-…
“Everything #fibromyalgia revolves around #sleep…got a bit…not enough…need more…need too much…can’t sleep…can’t stay awake…can’t wait to sleep…it’s never enough…” #WhatIKnowIsReal soisfibromyalgiareal.com/to-…

“Try to be positive...is both RIDICULOUS advice and GREAT advice, all at once." #Fibromyalgia #WhatIKnowIsReal soisfibromyalgiareal.com/bei…

"…have I overdone it…lost control…pushed too far…can I “get back”?
This is my #fibromyalgia…at it’s worst…the “flare up” that everyone dreads…a really bad flare up." #WhatIKnowIsReal soisfibromyalgiareal.com/fig…

"I pace myself…& I do listen to my body & heed the signals it is sending me…but I push it too. & I PUSH IT A LOT. After 15 years of trial & error living with fibromyalgia, I’ve found my fibromyalgia has some “give” to it & I take full advantage of it." soisfibromyalgiareal.com/im-…
