Fatigue is like being hungover
After a day of drunken mischief
Only without the drinking or the fun
This hangover never ends
Every day completely exhausted
Drained of energy head to toe
…
The headaches, the aches and the pains
Gang up and attack you as one
Leaving you hanging on a thread
It’s ready to snap any second
To pull you into the abyss of sleep
But you know it won’t help
…
You are hungover on life
Every day dragging you further in
Never able to fully enjoy everything
It knows how to slow you down
How to work around you
And attacks at the worst time
…
You just have to let it be
Exactly like a hangover
There’s no miracle cure
You just have to hope for the best
Try and work your way around it
And survive through it no matter what
Hello Fibro Blog 
Eugh yes, the worst kind of joyless hangover! 😦

Hi Bethan. love your website about Fibromyalgia, and this is a great explanation. It also explains why I don’t like drinking alcohol – because I am already “hungover”. You Nailed it!

Thank you so much! Somebody asked me the other day how I was feeling and this is the only way I could describe that they would understand. I’m exactly the same, drinking only makes things worse!
