I am fairly new to forums so bare with me. In my search for christian information concerning chronic myofascial pain I came across this web site and thought I'd give it a try. I understand where you are coming from with regards to your feelings. I have struggled for over a decade to get properly diagnosed and get help. Where I'm from the doctors don't believe in chronic fatigue syndrome and they don't know how to treat it or myofascial pain syndrome or fibromyalgia. It can also be difficult if the people in your environment or church etc. don't understand. People can be small-minded, as my friend says. I have had a very difficult time this past while with pain especially yesterday and today. It actually hurts to type. However, I read one of the messages and thought I would reply. Sometimes just expressing what one is thinking and feeling is helpful. Something I find truly helpful when dealing with big things and tough feelings when there are no big solutions, is looking for the little things in life that make me smile or that remind me of God's grace or love. I have this poster on my fridge I got from a clinic wall. It says, "I have entered the snapdragon part of my life. Part of me has snapped and the rest of me is draggin'". After I find a healthy way of expressing myself I look for the rays breaking through the clouds and it seems to help. I hope this encourages you. I must go rest now I'm in bad shape.
I came across this radio blurb a while ago of Joni Erickson I think is very worthwhile listening to. Enjoy!
