I've found that if you just sit them down and explain everything to them, maybe come up with a code word or phrase to tell them you cant go out because of your fibro. That has helped me a ton!

Friends who are truly friends will understand the struggles you deal with. You may have to explain it to them and help them understand it's a real thing.

I dont i currently have no friends i use to be the one who helped eveyone and accompaied everyone anywhere they wanted after saying so no or i carnt because im in pain or to exhausted to do anything so called friends have all disappeared

The friends that get you and your physical and emotional/mental being will understand. Those that don't, well I'd say they are not being good friends. When you can, get out and visit with your good friends and family. Have a laugh, chat and you might find your spirits will pick up. I wish you well. Cheers xx

@A MyFibroTeam Member: I also have joined a group that is pushing all natural essential oils. It is Young Living Essential Oils. They put a class on once a month. They teach you wich oils to use for what. It is all natural, all organic. No chemicals. My niece has turned her whole family and life around. She has a 2 yr old and 1 on the way. Her son has never had any chemicals around the house, or medicine from anywhere. She has been able to keep the holistic approach for everything in her house.
I have just started to be able to go out at night or weekends to do anything. For years I sat at home. No energy, deppressed, or whatever. Finally, I am able to start living again. I wish you luck. Soft, gentle hugs and prayers.
