From the Latin “fibra”,
symbolically means "family ties". “Mio”, from the Greek, that means muscle,
and “algias”, that means pain.
Fibromyalgia is considered a
controversial diagnosis and some authors claim that should not be considered as
a disease because among other reasons, lack of abnormalities on physical
examination, laboratory tests medical studies trying to confirm the diagnosis.
It is called fibromyalgia to a
group of symptoms and muscleskeletal disorders poorly understood, which is
mainly characterized by extreme fatigue, persistent pain, stiffness of varying
intensity of the muscles, tendons and a
wide range of other psychological symptoms, such as trouble sleeping, morning
stiffness , headaches and problems with thinking and memory, sometimes called
"blackouts" that often prevent the functioning routine of people. It
is a disorder present in approximately between 3 and 6 percent of young women,
usually between 20 and 50 years old.
One thing to note, because it
is a poorly understood symptom of fibromyalgia patients feel that others do not
believe them because the pain is not. It is an inner suffering, it is the
disease of family fibbers.
People with fibromyalgia are
blocked in understanding family relationships. On the one hand they like to
live with the family and be part of it, to feel loved and understood and on the
other hand, feel that the family requires or prevents him/her from doing
his/her life. They feel it is due to them, that they should give explanations,
ask for permission, share everything with them, etc. Even, sometimes, they may
feel "obligated" to someone in the family who hurts them or has hurt
them in the past.
This is called the
conflict of dual obligation:
"I am in a double family
commitment”
"I have loyalty to my
family, but this bothers me”
"I go to the person I
love but at the same time, he/she is my executioner"
"I want to say
something for myself but I do not grant the right, the family thinks different”
"I love this family, but
this family hurts me, but I feel helpless”
Another situation that can
cause fibromyalgia, is to live 4 simultaneous conflicts and all at the family
level:
Conflict
of direction Conflict for choosing the wrong direction, being on a bad
track, whether real, imaginary or symbolic. Devaluation by not finding the
right path.
"The direction I'm taking
in my life does not satisfy me”
"What am I doing
here?"
"I'm lost, out of the
herd, then ... when someone is lost is best to stay still”
It affects the adrenal cortex,
which stops producing cortisol to help overcome the stress that the loss caused
me.
I do not know what to do, do
not know where to go.
Devaluation Conflict: we have
locks to convert inner impulses to outdoor activities:
"Devaluation conflict
with what I do or I stop doing”
"If I move aside, I'm not
good; if I move to the other, either I'm fine, therefore I do not move. "
"I cannot handle this, it
is too much for me”
Contact family conflict tax:
having to assume, do or be with a person or situation.
I take care of .... be with
.... live ....
Fear of death: Another major conflict
that can exist behind a fibromyalgia is the "fear of death" but not
physical death, but the death of his/her own "identity" (feeling of
not belonging to my royal family or I imagine it, or feel that the family does
not do what I want).
"I feel I die, my family
does not support me, I belong to my family”
Sufferers of fibromyalgia are
exceedingly helpful and responsible people. The problem is that they hurt
themselves in their eagerness to serve others (family). They are people who do
favours for anyone, and are able to stop living their lives by serving other
members. Even, sometimes, despite being the ones dealing perform most
housework, they are slighted, criticized, etc.
