I know where you are coming from. I own a personal training business and I just told some people yesterday that I'm really considering quitting my business. My clients are very understanding and I can sit most of the time but even just getting to work and setting stuff up and dragging weights around is getting to be too much. Plus I'm 6 month preggers so all around it's tough. I DON'T want to give it up b/c it's my lifeline to normalcy in the midst of all this pain, but I think it's making things worse.

I would definitely suggest taking up a hobbie that involves contact with others. I decided to take up the fiddle so I would have something to do when I'm sitting at home and a weekly class to engage with others.
