Fibromyalgia: A Physical and Emotional Battle

With this in mind, creating a link between fibromyalgia (a mostly-physical condition) with depression and anxiety (purely psychological disorders) goes from being a long stretch to an actual feasible connection. It is not uncommon for patients to also suffer from any of these mental conditions, on top of their overbearing and crippling physical symptoms. The feeling of being a burden to their closest loved ones, coupled with the lack of support from these same individuals is sometimes too much to bear, even for the most stoic and independent individuals.
