About Me
I was diagnosed with CFS in Aug. 2008 and have been feeling unwell since Oct. 2007. I am having a very difficult time coping with it all. I feel hopeless, sad, discouraged, frustrated, alone, isolated and wonder when I am going to feel better again. My entire life has changed: professional, social and personal. I have been off work since Dec. 2007, rarely go to social events, can't travel, don't spend as much time with friends, have a hard time dating and can't exercise like I used to. My relationships with my family and friends have all changed. I wish I had more support. No one can possibly know what I am going through other then all of you.
