People looking at Fibromyalgia Friends Together videos

Welcome to the Fibromyalgia Friends Together Video Channel

Our video channel is a new space created by people with fibromyalgia, for people with fibromyalgia. Whether you’re newly diagnosed, supporting a loved one, or living with long‑term symptoms, our videos are here to offer advice, guidance and practical support.

We know how isolating fibromyalgia can feel — the uncertainty, the invisible symptoms, the constant need to explain what you’re going through. Our aim is to make sure you never feel alone with it again.

Over time we will have videos about

  • Real stories and lived experience Honest conversations from people who truly understand what it’s like to live with fibro day to day.

  • Practical tips and gentle guidance From pacing and flare‑up management to sleep, mobility, and navigating the healthcare system.

  • Expert insights Interviews and discussions with clinicians, researchers, and professionals who specialise in chronic pain and long‑term conditions.

  • Community voices We highlight the experiences, creativity, and resilience of our members — because your voice matters.

  • Calming, supportive content Short videos designed to help you feel grounded, encouraged, and connected.

Why We Created This Channel

Fibromyalgia Friends Together has always been about community, compassion, and empowerment. Our channel extends that mission, giving us a way to reach more people and to share reliable information. 

Together, we can make living with fibromyalgia a little less overwhelming — and a lot more supported.
