This post really spoke to me, as I’m in the midst of a flare up and I’ve definitely hit a low point and an feel myself falling into depression. It’s so hard because people can’t really *see* how sick you are. I get the feeling sometimes that they think I’m exaggerating how sick I am to get attention or something. It’s so hard to get out of bed every day when the people around me don’t seem supportive. In their defense, I’m sure they probably just don’t realize, but it makes it harder and harder to fight the fatigue and pain every day. Thank you for your words. .-= SR´s last blog ..<a href="http://gradstudentwithlupus.blogspot.com/2010/03/honesty-at-outset.html" rel="nofollow">Honesty at the Outset</a> =-.

I have a saying I tell people who don't understand my pain 'Walk a Mile in My Footsteps and then you tell me how it is'. I've told people I hope to God you don't get lupus because I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy and that's the whole truth. It's sad when a sibling cannot love the other sibling uncondtionally. Tell you sibling to come to my site if you like. Hugs CC Diane,

My brothers have turned their backs on me, because I live with my parents and my brothers resent me because they believe my living here has kept my parents from their lives. I live in the basement apartment of my parents home, I have not taken any money from them since I am 16, and do pay rent and try to live as indepently as I can, but they don't see it that way and have nothing to do with me it is so hurtful and fustrating, because as you know lupus in itself is a full time job. Many blessings to you and anyone out there suffering with their family as well.
