Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia, Allergies - 'Why Me?'

Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia, Allergies - 'Why Me?'
Why me? A question you've asked yourself countless times
and still haven't found the answer to? As someone who
suffered at the hands of hypoglycemia, adrenal fatigue and
various allergies I asked myself the same question.

It is suggested that the majority of people with fatigue
disorders are sensitive people. Can you recognise yourself
here?

Are you easily overwhelmed by such things as bright lights,
strong smells, coarse fabrics, or sirens nearby?

Do you get rattled when you have a lot to do in a short
amount of time?

Do you make a point of avoiding violent movies and TV shows?

Do you need to withdraw during busy days, into bed or a
darkened room or some other place where you can have
privacy and relief from the situation?

Do you make it a high priority to arrange your life to
avoid upsetting or overwhelming situations?

Do you notice or enjoy delicate or fine scents, tastes,
sounds, or works of art?

Do you have a rich and complex inner life? When you were a
child, did your parents or teachers see you as sensitive or
shy?

Visit http://www.hsperson.com and take the full test
devised by Elaine Aron. She also has some very interesting
books to read.

If you recognise yourself here IT IS NOT BAD THING. It
means that you are one of only 15-20% of the population, a
special group. Without sensitive people the world would be
a harsher place. You have the rare ability to know what
people need, to be there for them, to care for people '
unconditionally. Your gifts are special, unique and
selfless. In exchange for all your wonderful gifts you are
sensitive to the harsher things in this world. You pick up
allergies easily to foreign substances, and to
environmental pollutants. You may worry forever about
things people have said and they can eat you up inside.
Too many things bombarding you everyday has left you weak
and unable to cope. As you develop symptoms of fatigue you
don't have the energy to carry on your special work anymore
and you feel even more detached.

Rue Hass encourages you to remember your ideal qualities;
these are featured on her website
http://www.intuitivementoring.com

Internally deeply caring

Deeply committed to the positive and the good

On a mission to bring peace to the world

Strong personal morality

Often make extraordinary sacrifices for someone/something
you believe in

If you're suffering right now I urge to you look for what
you could get out of this situation. You rediscover
reading, self help books are so inspiring, getting back
with nature would help a sensitive person to ground
themselves again. Could you use this opportunity to
retrain or somehow find a way of helping other sensitive
people? You need to allow yourself time to recover and
your energy can only pick up if you've allowed yourself
some time away from the noise, people, pollutants, demands
etc. Just because the majority of the population cope with
these without a problem doesn't mean that you're odd.
You're not odd ' you're special.

So go forward and nurture your sensitive side. It took me
years to build myself back up again and I wish I had
understood all about sensitive people at the time. Don't
dismiss what I've told you as unbelievable and impossible.

Visit the links I've given you and read more about other
people in similar situations. It's the best thing you
could do for yourself today. You can absolutely conquer
this.
