Amber Yes, I do have that problem. Even from some members of my family. Last year I was put on disability, and at 26, no one thinks I am really ill. One of the things I have is fibromylagia. I went to a new doctor and the first thing he said to me, was that...

patgalca I had trouble convincing people in the beginning. There were a lot of skeptics way back then (almost 11 years ago). People thought I was just making stuff up to try and get out of going back to work after my baby was born. I spent five years in litigation...

289600266 My doctor believes that it is a real condition, and is trying to help me get better before I get worse, but I rarely discuss it with anyone else. People look at me like I'm crazy. I just don't have the energy to explain it anymore.

Amber Of course! I enter trip contests, but instead I enter my parents. I know I can't go some of these places, but it would make me feel so wonderful to be able to send my parents somewhere. In real life, I would never be able to do that.

Amber Those are good tips. I never enter a contest worth more than 600 dollars. I used to, but when I got on disability, I had to change tactics. Anything about 600 dollars worth of prizes is counted as income that you have to show on your taxes. I'd have to report...
