A Kent teenager who quit her job after struggling with a debilitating condition is hoping to remove the stigma around it.

Paige Rabbitts from Herne Bay was diagnosed with fibromyalgia last November after two years of feeling extreme tiredness and muscle stiffness.

The 18-year-old is now trying to raise awareness of the condition which has no cure and has set up a group for others living with it.

She says her family didn't understand until doctors realised what was wrong.
