In my personal situation, I ...Very insightful post. In my personal situation, I often attempt to deal with my particular situation myself. While my condition is primarily physical there are other elements. I have a great doctor who helps me a lot, but most of the time I muddle through. Asking for help is hard, I know. I can tell when things are going wrong when I push myself so hard I start to "fall down". This has often happened at Rowany Festival, fighting from a chair because my legs don't work, or taping my sword to my hand is a result of the stubborness that I have. <br /><br />Your post has inspired me that maybe I should be writing a blog about being a fencer with fibromyalgia and also dealing with it in other situations. I will give it due consideration.<br /><br />Thanks for the blog, it is great.Henry Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07709154816465095991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4683204293544836708.post-48428458297591729342009-10-27T22:34:04.862-07:002009-10-27T22:34:04.862-07:00Bart, that was fascinating mate.

Have known a couple of people along those lines - most of them had the depression to go along with (several of whom ended up informing characters in ITWPT, which has several characters lacking correctly functioning neurochemistry in various ways) - and it was a very interesting insight. Good luck with it.Dr Yobbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10032085614743539793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4683204293544836708.post-27473053451204920272009-10-25T22:08:28.768-07:002009-10-25T22:08:28.768-07:00Since there are a few writers and budding writers ...Since there are a few writers and budding writers around these parts, I though having a perspective from inside the unwell persons head could be a useful tool.Ysambarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02360071758069381121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4683204293544836708.post-50124251251695702382009-10-25T22:05:42.634-07:002009-10-25T22:05:42.634-07:00Thanks Naut.

Once I'm coming down a bit there is usually a go round to friends and I say<br /><br />"Thanks, Sorry, what a ride.

And that needs someone else for a big 'stop' or a lot of little 'is this right' warnings eventually filter through.<br /><br />This one was a lot of little warnings, verbal and physical: "That seems desperate", "Hey bucko, what's the line between confident and arrogant", "You look confused", not being able to keep pace with someone while walking, having to march faster, I start making complex analogies that are too complex for my audience and being even worse with names than usual.<br /><br />Self analysis requires your brain, and brain is the thing that is glitching out. And behavior is a spectrum: from normal - having a good time - hypnomania - mania.Ysambarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02360071758069381121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4683204293544836708.post-56681948233006313662009-10-24T12:20:30.114-07:002009-10-24T12:20:30.114-07:00Sounds like something you are familiar with and th...Sounds like something you are familiar with and the best person to deal with it is on it. <br /><br />That person being you.<br /><br />Interesting to read about it through your experience of it.Michael barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08986102144813296339noreply@blogger.com
