I too, find it difficult to get out of bed in the morning. I love to sleep late, but I have to get up early for my job. I am a H.S. Math Teacher, so my days start early, and typically have alot of stress in them. However, I must say, I enjoy reading the posts on this site, and I enjoy hearing from others with R.A. I also have Multiple Scloresis, so I suppose you could say I have alot to deal with. Some days, as I have read, are harder than others. The R.A. is far worse to deal with the M.S. I was diagnosed with M.S. in 2003, and it changed my perspective on life. Dramatically. But being diagnosed with R.A. in 2005, really changed things. R.A. is a day to day battle with pain. I hate that part. I suppose that is reason I hate getting up. The only time during my day I don't have pain, is when I sleep. The pain in my joints and back is worse in the morning when I wake up, thus, I do not like waking up in the morning. But I am still going to get up, and still going to fight on. I have R.A. and M.S. but it doesnt have me........
