    This.

    My brother and father died and all I got was Fibromyalgia at 34, probably due to traumatic grief. (Heroin OD and Brain Cancer are so fun to witness. /s

    That’s combined with burning out as a professional Cook for 23 years.

    All combining with cPTSD.

      I got Fibromyalgia from a combination of depression and extreme stress. It’s so hard to explain to people, since it sounds so alien and almost everyone thinks I’m being lazy or faking it.
