Hang in there. I was depressed for years then I got support from others with fibro. I also joined a wonderful supportive disability group and found myself and meaning. I now am a disability advocate and was in my first performance of disability monologues. Life is different, but there is support and kindness and understanding.
Also, stop using detergents that have chemicals and perfumes in them. There are a lot of common sense things. Read about about different cleaning products and use natural ones. Baking soda and vinegar is very good for many things. Find others.

Trevor!
Your thoughts are natural given this illness. That being said, we must reach out to the supernatural! You and I are being formed and are a temple for God to dwell in. He suffered all for each and all. We accept the good things, He accepted all and did it for love. Our pain forms, molds and accompanies us and trains us, but also when offered freely in humble trust to The Lord, He uses it for souls, and He never ever forgets you. There is a reward available for those who choose it. Choose Him. Think of His sorrows and agony and that of his dear Mother and know that there IS most definitely a purpose and God will bring good out of all of this. We need you Trevor. You are a blessing to the group! Please please try to think of one thing you are truly grateful for.
Think of the spikes driven into Christ's body. Think of his Mother looking on. Why did He endure this? That all who believe in Him might not perish. He obeyed and trusted His Father. Jesus was mocked, spit on, deserted, tortured, reviled, died and accepted all of this in full measure, that we might someday triumph over sin and reap an eternal reward. Eternity for us begins now and we wait to draw our last breath at His command. We obediently accept as He did! If we live with Him, we shall reign with Him. Surrender & Trust!!!
Surrender is NOT to give up or to despair. Surrender is to trust in Peace that this will all be turned for good if you do not rebel. Do all you can to heal, but do not refuse to suffer, because it helps you to be formed and ready. Please do not despair! Despair only leads to an unhappy demise and some decisions defeat the whole purpose of the desired end. You are loved and of infinite value and dignity.
