I feel so alone, yet my husband is in the same house and sleeps next to me every night when he decides to come to bed. And we are living with his mom. And she keeps making me feeling like I am stupid and no not deserve to be with my husband. I finally told I did not grow up like you, you did not have to very mentally ill parents that cared more about themselves than their children. I honestly feel like i am totally alone and that they only that cares is God in this house!

So pleased you have a dog but can't someone help out with your sister at least once a week so you can go to a show or a meal out. You need it. Don't just accept that there is not another way. You deserve better. I say this respectively.

My heart goes out to you Margi. You are a wonderful woman. No mother deserves disrespect. I don't know how old your children and grandchildren are. I pray the Lord gives them a conscience about how lovely you are.
God bless❤🙏

Yes Fibro does make you feel lonely . pecially in my case ,in spite of my sickness I have to take care of my sister who is Schizophrenic . Therefore I dont have have any social life . At times its really hard to manage myself and my sister . Thankfully I have a dog which helps a lot . They r no doubt a mans best friend .. I hope and pray that everyone feels better . God bless ..
I was in this exact situation over a year ago. Except it wasn’t just my husband’ Mom but his entire family. They would come over and yell at my husband and me because I was not doing any type of hard work on her yard.
I have Osteoarthritis too which makes it painful to move about.
After several years of this, I finally had to move out. I am not saying that is an option for you but it did get me away from his abusive family.
All I am saying is that I know how it feels to be alone. My family has not understood my life either, they try, but it is difficult for them to understand.
Social media, keeping yourself occupied with things that give you joy, peace, and/or contentment definitely helps.
You are not alone. We are here for you as well.
Yes Fibro and Chronic Fatigue is a very lonely illness, even under the best of circumstances. I am very sorry you have to live in a household where anyone is negative against you. It's hard enough even if everyone around you is positive.
