Ok! I know I have had a bad couple of weeks and have been teary and now the heat has knackered me out and is making me hurt all over...but.... Does anyone find they feel over sensitive to things emotionally. A work colleague of mine said something to me today and it upset me, they're always the one who has something to say about the world! I don't really talk about my illness to people there - but sometimes I am just trying to get thru the day - and then someone makes a comment and i end up… read more

Me to all the time.i went to the hospital today and saw the doctor and I just wanted to cry and tried to stop my self considering every thing I have been through the last 2weeks.sometimes I cry at the silliest things at times for no reason I cry when I get angry very tired etca lot of the time I am a silent weeper.i cry when in a lot of pain.i hate it it makes me feel weak even though I am not.
All the time. I even question close family members constant if they are mad at me because of something they say and normally their response is no that had nothing to do with you. I wasn't even upset. I get very sensitive to everything. You are not alone! Glad I'm not either because this exact thing has left me in tears many times!
Aw heck I cry most days if I see a dog or cat video. Pathetic I know. but it happens
I do the same thing. I often feel as if an off the cuff remark is directed at me personally. Before the fibro it would be the sort of comment/ remark I would have ignored but because I know that most of the time I do not look ill, I am hyper-sensitive and take things far more personally. I find myself crying at the oddest of things. I have always been a strong person who dealt with matters as they arose, now I find myself hiding away, and ignoring it until I am forced to confront the issue. Do not be to hard on yourself, and just try to deal with each thing as it comes along. Remember that you are not alone. Fibro may be an invisible illness but the impact it has on our lives is very real. Gentle hugs xx
I have been very emotional yesterday and today. Unfortunately my family while love me , do not understand why I am tired and down they tell me to not give into it , but as I am a business owner and I start work at 5am everyday I get tired a lot. My hope is to sell this as it is now to much to get up and get going in the morning. I enjoy working with the public so I hope to find something to do to keep me active.
