10. Keep on asking why
It is normal for patients dealing with chronic illnesses to ask why, of all people, they are the ones who have to deal with these debilitating conditions. However, this manner of questioning will only lead to guilt feelings, self-blame, and further stress. You should instead ask what is going on in your body. This can probably help you to uncover the things that have triggered the flare-up of your symptoms.
In Conclusion
It is hard living with fibromyalgia or chronic fatigue syndrome. However, if you identify the things that you do and break the bad habits mentioned above, you can end up feeling better emotionally and physically.
