How do you get others to understand?
How do I get family, friends and coworkers to understand the pain, "brain fog", fatigue, headaches and on and on that I am dealing with???
My husband says there's nothing wrong with me.
A manager at work has been telling others that she feels I'm not being truthful, just trying to get out of work at the company's expense (I'm on partial disability).
My kids don't get why I have to ask for extra help with home maintenance.
I guess they'd accept my condition more if I walked around moaning, groaning and grimacing with pain. But- I won't do that. I'm trying to live my life as "normally" as possible.
How did you handle this? I would appreciate any help!
