How can I deal with all the things I need to get done?

Pace yourself

Fibro victims tend to be over-achievers. We have had unrealistic expectations of ourselves all of our lives. It's time to get real. Set some new goals. They don't need to be large- just realistic. Instead of cleaning the garden, weed one flower bed. You don't have to be perfect. Ignore anyone who tries to make you feel guilty. You can only do what you can do.

I tend to over do all the time. The next day I feel horrible. The guilt that goes along with not being able to do much the following day only makes it worse. When people don't understand how bad you really hurt it makes you feel so alone. Learning to let the jerks be jerks is taking time. Learning to not listen to the negative comments and know that what you feel is real maybe difficult but is so necessary.
