Coping with Fibromyalgia After Losing My Father

My father died 4 months ago. I feel like my fibromyalgia has gotten worse. I’m in a lot of pain. I seem to need a lot of sleep or I can’t function at all.

Im so sorry for your loss. I'm sure this has been negatively affecting your health. Try to read, watch happy moments in your life. If you have videos of him laughing. Try to think of positive things.

Stress, which grief is so hard on our bodies and emotionally, too. Bless you. You cannot rush grief. I got really ill after my father died. That was decades ago. Long before my diagnosis.

I’m sorry for your loss pain from fibro can get way way worse after a stressful situation. If heat and pressure help I recommend hot baths and weighted blankets. I hope you find relief from your pain/symptoms soon 💖

Grief is hard. Be gentle with yourself. After my father died I got really sick from the stress of grief (decades before my fibro diagnosis). It's normal to be tired while grieving. Be kind to yourself as you would a friend.
