About this blog..

This is a very personal and honest account of my life, written whilst being in the depths of depression, feeling the pain from Fibromyalgia, and other physical problems.  Throughout this time, I’ve had no means of real escape, or anyone to whom I could really talk to, or even understand a part of what I was going through. I have been very much alone with my illnesses mentally, physically and emotionally, and writing this blog is part of my healing process.

I have always referred to this period of my life as "My Journey", because that is exactly what it is; a journey from my the date of my breakdown to today.  Along the way, I visit many issues, some not necessarily tied to my illness, but are just trains of thought, which often help to disentangle my complicated mind.

Writing this is so important for me, and I hope by doing so, some readers may identify with what I have to say and or share the same experience.   I have been on the receiving end of the lack of understanding, and the stigmatism that is still attached to mental illness of any kind.  I have also felt the debilitating effect of feeling lost, alone and unheard, because of having no real support.  So I hope that by doing this which helps me, I can also reach out to at least one other fellow sufferer.  

Thank you for reading and showing an interest, I appreciate any comments or feedback of any kind, so please feel to do just that.

I hope you enjoy reading "Journey through a painful body and a depressed mind", as much as I enjoy writing it.  Sx
