I read theres a high number of divorce among couples where one spouse has fibro. My husband and I have been married for 45 years . We had problems before, but now with fibro they have skyrocketed. He helps me but not enough. He says I boss him around to much. Sometimes I think living by myself might bring me more peace and less stress.....but I might end up living under a bridge and that brings me back to reality......JEsus help me to cope with my fibro

I think we all get fed up at times and snap for no reason. Especially to those that love us. My poor guy has been snapped up more than a little bit and he is so helpful. He's out getting my groceries right now. I think it has to do with the pain level and the lack of sleep. I find that since I've moved into my own room I'm doing better. I also have an adjustable bed which is a godsend. At least I'm not waking him up When I'm awake all night. All we can do is apologize and try better 🍫❤️B

i BELIEVE WE CAN BE IRRITATED b/c pain, lack of stimulus of of people around us, (depressed) pain can make us do a lot of things !! So try real hard to be pleasant . I get depressed a lot & orney , hard to live with. I work hard to keep my mouth shut . It's not easy in many directions. We have to work on a lot of issues. I'm sorry!!! I would like u to do something for me promise me to LAUGH everyday the more the better.Benefits of Laughing;;;: !) reduces heart disease 2) natural pain killer 3) improves breathing 4)helps u to loose weight ( I'm not sure how that works!!) 5)improves your sleep 6) decreases stress 7) makes u look younger (hey that would nice) I found this so I thought I'd share for what it's worth !!! God bless we care about u HUGS & prayers !!! My dear !!

Effexor (antidepressant) has helped me with my irritability n moodiness.

Khalds, do you have any other health issues? My anxiety and depression causes a very short tolerance to sounds, lights, etc. I always take my meds but when I get like that I (and my family) know I need to discuss with psychiatrist to make some changes on the meds. My husband and I also have separate rooms or neither of us would sleep. My dog can barely handle all my constant flip-flopping. A good mattress helps too!
