Hi Lindy1965
I just responded to Joannemm30809 post and now I just saw yours. you have both described my life too. I know all about the depression too, no interest in that. When I have clinic visits , I say dont bother with that depression screening , cause I am not doing it. I ask them wouldnt you be depressed if you were dealing with this .I passed out at work too, twice. I hope you did not get hurt when you fell. I feel abandoned by people also, no one understands, and the phone does not ring much anymore. We all need to stick together and maybe by sharing and communicating we can have these friendships on line through this site. There are so many of us out there, we can not give up hope. One thing I remember Joyce Meyer saying was never give up. We are tough and strong and we can beat this, my mom use to say Time heals. Sincerely, Kitty2

Hi Kitty,
Thanks so much for your response.
Yes, it has become a very lonely existence. I’m tired of people saying things like “you look fine” or “ yeah, we’re all tired”…. They don’t realize that just washing our hair and getting dressed is sometimes all We can do in a day.
Sometimes I don’t even get that far. I think all we can do is pray that time does heal. I’m getting so frustrated and impatient. I’m trying to learn how to better pace myself. I can’t even visit with my family for a couple of hours without having PEM for days or longer. I’m 58 and single. I don’t want to be this way forever.
Lindy
