when i am really fatigued i always say "i feel like i'n melting"
because that's what my muscles feel like and for some reason people seem to get that this at least isn't good instead of responding with the usual "i am tired too"
loving people with chronic health conditions and there being nothing to do to help them SUCKS
i have chronic issues myself but when i break down it's mostly because the people i love are miserable
i am tired of seeing the people i care about suffer without being able to help
i need to lay in bed for a week to make up for one day i overdid it
not being able to sleep due to pain sucks, because sleep is the one time i am not in pain
Being chronically ill and a “normal” illness on top of it (cold, flu etc etc) SUCKS
I see you
It sucks and it’s twice as painful and you’re twice as nauseous and can’t keep anything down and have less than the zero energy you had before
I see you I’m sorry it sucks and I’m right here with you
SAY IT WITH ME: MEDICAL GASLIGHTING IS MALPRACTICE
me: "i'm so fatigued and my brain fog is pretty bad"
healthy person: "stop complaining, i'm tired too"
your "tired" is not the same as my fatigued! sleep won't cure me, this is not how it works!
playing a fun game of anxiety or new chronic illness symptom
gonna start answering "i hope you get better" with "thanks, i probably won't"
like i hope so too it's just not realistic rn
shout out to everyone who doesn't have a chronic illness!
How does it it feel to not be terrified of having to stand for longer than a couple minutes?
i'd love some audiobook recommendations, thank you!
i'm mostly trying to not spend the whole day even if it means just sitting on the couch instead when i'm not feeling well. otherwise i always felt like i wouldn't get tired in bed at all.
any tips for what helps with insomnia?
