I had someone stay in my house despite my husband's objection who said she has Fibromyalgia, PTSD, and general anxiety disorder. She was applying for Social Security Disability at that time and was living off donations she gets from her website "Miracle for ____" . According to her, a doctor said that she can never work again because the stress will kill her in 5 years. She admitted that other doctors told her otherwise. While in my house, all she did was sit around and facebook. She just sat - sometimes for the whole day. She only got up to go to the bathroom, smoke and drink coffee. Never showed pain,discomfort or any symptoms related to her disorder. She walked 5 miles once and never had the energy drain. I forgot to mention that she sings in a band with my husband . They performs 5sets 45 minutes each, with 15 minutes break. When they come home, my husband is so exhausted (he's the drummer) while she drinks until she's out of what ever alcohol was available. She was never sick when she went to hang out with her friend and she said things to me that made me question her claims. She told me that About.com has symptoms of diseases and "just exaggerate when you are asked". She also used my symptoms in one of her facebook entry. Her famous line, "You have to cry to get sympathy" and "Time to turn the water works"! When confronted, she denied everything. Someone she knows is always ill or dying or just died. Now she says she has Lupus!
I'm taking a lot of pain pills and there are times that I'm not sure if I'm imaging thing, but I just can not get over the feeling that I was taken advantaged of. Does anyone have an opinion? Is she really sick or is taking advantage of people?
She moved out on her own accord. Unfortunately, I still see her when I go to see the band. I can not even be cordial to her, I just do not like her. Please tell me she is really sick so I can get over this!
