Hey guys, well
I need somewhere to vent after an argument just now in my family about my illness, and this is probably the best place. understanding people, and I dont think anoybody will be as cold hearted as my family and friends have
so here goes
A few years ago the start of my illness began, It started with severe stomach pains
it progressed into heart arrhythmia, Shortness of breath, and pain in all my limbs and joints, and EXTREME insomnia (when I say extreme, I mean I dont sleep for up to 4 days in a row)
I spent years getting tests done only to turn up nothing. I got sent from doctor to doctor and nobody could figure it out
They eventually all gave up and labeled it as Fibromyalgia
Heres where the problem comes in
I am only 17 and my family thinks im a faker... They say im making it up to get out of school... my friends think im lying too and say it to my face which really hurts me.. because no matter how hard I try to explain myself nobody listens
I would be lying to say im not slightly depressed, I went from having tons of friends to having nearly none, went from riding my bike and skateboard to being a coach potato
and nobody listens to me, nobody really understands my situation.
I am extremely angry inside.. at the doctors and my family. If even one person could look at me and say "there is something wrong that we need to get to the bottom of" id be happy
but nobody can even do that.. they just say im a faker
Anyway im done ranting.. just needed to get this off my chest
