Miserable Sod
It is certainly a difficult one. If you look OK, then people do make assumptions. Like you, I push, and people see that and think I'm fine. Then they are surprised when I disappear for three days to recover.
I actually raised the issue with my Neurologist last time I saw her. My family are the worst, never letting up on trying to make me do things. She said to just be honest, but I've done that, and they just think I'm joking, or exaggerating. I am worried the next step is me getting angry, and saying something to them I can't take back.
Any advice from your experiences would be gratefully received. I still haven't found the right balance.
