News of Somatoform Disorders

hello.
this is my first post here. tell you the truth i'm not even sure why i'm here. i feel a bit of a fake - since it appars everybody (docs, friends, social workers) all say i am better. but, you know i don't feel like it.

it is almost 10 am on the morning watch, yet i've been up for 3 days now. yes, there was some 10-15 min cat-nap, but no more. so ...

What do you recommend for fibromyaligia? Is it a virus which may cause an auto-immune response? I have a 24 yr old daughter who suffers daily from fibromyalgia pain, please advice.
Thanks!

any there any forums for BDD other than this one and the BDD Central one?

This illness is consuming me in a way that I thought couldn't be done...I just don't know anymore...I wish there was more understanding with such a debilitating illness *sigh*

I have Fibromyalgia for 20 years. I am now 60. I have severe muscle pain and have not found anything that helps. There are times that I am unable to walk more then a few feet even in my own house. Has anyone found a medication that helps without making you into a zombie???

I am a 45 year old female. I have been fighting fibromyalgia for several years. At this time I am unable to do anything but need to find a doctor who is knowledgeable about treatment options. I am new to St. Louis and have not found one yet.

I have been suffering with Fibromyalgia for several years and it has really taken a toll on me. I still have a very hard time living with the fatigue. I'm going to be 37 in a few days and feel 77....that is my biggest complaint...the pain I can tolerate but just hate being tired all the time.

never mind, see Serpicor's reply for why I have deleted :roll:

wasting my time

Hi I am a , Social Workers _. I need health and wellness material that I can put my name on and hand to my clients. Nothing is editable; most of it sucks and is too generic. Does anyone know where I can get free professional wellness fact sheets that I can edit, put my name on them and give them to my patients?
