    I don't really know what to say about it. I'm used to just having to get on with it, I have had to do that since the pain first started.

    How are you doing today? I noticed that you were around very late last night and very early this morning. Are you getting any sleep?

    I'm not sleeping well. I often wake up several times during the night but it's been worse over the past few nights. I'm even turning on a blue light filter on my phone so it doesn't fool my body into thinking it's daylight and that's not really helped, although that's early days using that.

    I completely understand this. I've always had pain and was quite often told I was making it up when I was growing up - strange now that my Mum has decided that she's in so much pain constantly that she needs to tell me how badly she hurts and that I am the only who can understand that............. but her's is much, much worse than mine obviously....... *gently squishes Jaq*

    Again I sympathise. My sleep is horrendous atm. What's your sleep hygiene like? Can you try to make a bedtime, shower/bath then bed with a warm milk or something?

    I understand where you are coming from wits regards to sleep. My own pattern is gone to pieces at the moment. I get about 2 hours together and then I'm awake for an hour. I try to clear my mind when this happens but it doesn't always work.

    I tend to get a shower around 8pm then just relax in my room with the radio on.

    My mums just asked me how my hands are today and I just told her they weren't too bad, no point saying they're really stiff and my movement is restricted as all I'll get is how bad hers are, and I was right as her next sentence was "it's just me having a bad flare up then". No mother, it's not, but the difference is I actually try and help myself.

    I'm trying to be. Spent almost an hour on the phone with J this afternoon, he had his first counselling session and wanted to make sure he was ok afterwards, we ended up just having a general natter and a giggle and I think we both put the phone down feeling brighter. Other then that, I've sorted the shopping out and put it all away and started a book J lent me.
