SAD or Fibro?
Posted Tuesday, 03 November 2009 By 2muchPain
My fibromyalgia always gets worse during the fall and winter months. I do not believe it is a separate issue of Seasonal Depression Disorder because this cycle developed over the past ten years only. I have a very difficult time sleeping at night and therefore fall asleep all afternoon. I find this is making just about any social or outdoor activities nearly impossible.

The colder weather can affect your pain levels. You may want to consider getting a vitamin D test to check your levels. If they are low, consider supplementation. This may help during the fall and winter months.
As far as sleeping, try (I understand the difficulty) to stay up and not go to bed until a certain time. Then get up at a certain time also. Keep the schedule to train your body when to sleep. So many factors are tied into sleep so really focus on your lifestyle and make sure you are doing the right things the right way to help.
