It's hard to always put your health first. But we have to, we really have no choice in the matter. I've been struggling with making committments as well, I usually drop out of things because I either have pain or am too tired. I've tried to make my friends understand this, and the ones that stick around when I cancel are the ones I want to hold onto. It's so difficult to balance it all, I wish you luck! I don't really have much insight, I just know what its like to feel like a bad person because I just cant do it because of my health.

I'm in there with you. Going from active to mostly inactive has been very lonely for me. I think my no-showing at things I've RSVP'd to results in me getting fewer invitations. I pick and choose how and where I want to spend my energy. Its like I get so many energy dollars per week and I can choose to spend the whole wad at one event or dole out a dollar at a time. After my last hospitalization, I woke up one day at home and realized I felt GOOD. I was doing some housework I hadn't felt like doing for months and thought, "What a blessing!" That made me start laughing out loud. Housework has never been my "thang." But it pointed me to a change in perspective that comes with the disease. My faith is the glue that holds me together.
