Fibromyalgia & Energy

Fibromyalgia, a painful disgusting chronic disorder that manages affect the musculoskeletal system, fatigue takes over the body, and sleep seems to never come when you need it. Every part of the body hurts, the muscles, ligaments, tendons, and the body’s soft tissues are also affected. As a person who suffers from fibromyalgia at times I swear my teeth hurt (although this not the case).

From the very first time I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia I have searched high and low reading just about everything I came across to find some form of relief. I have taken numerous drugs my physicians have prescribed that claim to help suppress the pain, but I soon discovered that was a lie. Then I tried to convince myself that even though the pain had not been relieved, the edge has been taken off of my pain. Okay, if I can convince myself to believe that, then why can’t I dig a little deeper to determine if there is another reason for my suffering?

I have recently come across some literature that seems to link fibromyalgia to emotion. Really? Okay, let me continue. There is research indicating fibromyalgia attacks the bodies of people that are extremely busy and lack proper rest and exercise. We push our bodies to the limit and allow the needs of others to come before our own. Allowing our mind, emotions, and body to be pushed to the extreme, we eventually disrupt our entire nervous system disrupting body functions, specifically our individual sleep pattern. Without the proper amount of sleep we make our bodies vulnerable to a plethora of diseases and chronic ailments.

Examination of my own life has allowed me to identify I have never really given myself what I need. I have always put myself last and taken care of others neglecting myself. I also discovered I experience the emotions of others, empathy overload. Once again neglecting my own feelings or suppressing them to keep others happy. Inside my body, a ticking bomb is waiting to explode. There is anger, resentment, fear, and as I much as I do not want to admit it, some very strong dislike for people. No wonder my body hurts… I think. Makes perfect sense, right? So where does all of that toxicity go?

My body has become a safe harbor for negative energy. Well damn. Could this be the key to my pain? Anger, neglect, hatred, and fear among other things have manifested in the from of pain throughout my entire body. The theory in itself is interesting and worth further exploration. I am going to do additional research on energies and the affect these energies have on the human body. If there is any validity to this claim, my fibromyalgia may be manageable without drugs.
