This is a true statement.

Here is the gist of the article:
Simply put, stress weakens your body. In a weakened state, you're more vulnerable to fibromyalgia's symptoms, such as chronic pain, fatigue, and depression. Many researchers believe if you eliminate certain stressful triggers, you'll in turn experience reduced fibromyalgia symptoms.

But loosening the grip of day-to-day stresses is not as simple as it sounds. Oftentimes, people with fibromyalgia overload themselves with parenting or other caretaking duties, or their career may take precedence. Whatever the situation, many people with fibromyalgia aren't putting themselves as a top concern. But certain lifestyle changesβ€”such as taking time to relax and making your health a priorityβ€”are an essential part of coping with fibromyalgia.

Wishing you all a pain free day!

Well... it landed me in the hospital for a solid week.
Several years back. I just totally collapsed due to major stress. Was unable to relax. Too much pressure... etc.
The hospital felt like a holiday. That answer your question? πŸ™‚
