Thanks for the hugs....they really help.
I was feeling okay after stopping all the prescription meds and supplements from the Fibro and Fatigue Center....until yesterday. Then, the sick feeling crap came back!
Nothing I can take additional since I'm having a laparascopy on Monday to see if I have any Endometriosis. So, hopefully, this 'sickiness' won't turn into a real illness, or that's going to have to be scrapped, too.
As the girl who cuts my hair at Supercuts said today, "You just can't get a break!"
Yeah..no shit.
How about some kind of communal type of living arrangement? I know they are out there; anyone know anything about one? I would think there would be positive, supportive people in one of those.

For the communal living types, are you speaking of groups like the Amish or Menonites? If so, I know what you mean first hand about how supportive their communities can be.
I had a friend who passed away last year whose wife was a Menonite. When I went to the funeral home, the widow was surrounded by the entire Menonite community.
I'm not just what it takes to become part of these communities. I'm not certain if one can only be "born" into it...or if one can just show up one day and say "I want to be AMish" and be accepted by the community.
In any case, I know what you mean...it would be wonderful to be surrounded by a community of folks who unconditionally cared for us.
Have you checked out your local church? Many churches also have a "core" group of people who tend to be very friendly and unconditionally accept others. Maybe that would be an option?
