Hello everyone,
Did you know that fibromyalgia can sometimes heighten your sensitivity to sounds, smells, or even light? 🌟
This increased sensitivity can feel overwhelming, but it’s a common experience for many living with this condition. Let’s open up the conversation!
Have you noticed any particular sensitivities (noise, light, smell) connected to your fibromyalgia? 🎧💡🌸
What are your go-to strategies for managing these moments? 💡
Do you think this sensitivity might have a silver lining, such as boosting creativity or making you more attuned to your surroundings? 🎨
