any tips for what helps with insomnia?
why tf do people think i am joking when i say i am chronically ill and then continue making fun of it as if it's nothing apart from some silly little joke
this is my fucking life, it shouldn't be a joke to you, you shouldn't assume i am lying just cause you can't tell i'm chronically ill just by looking at me when i don't use my mobility aid
making jokes about being chronically ill with my friends, because somehow things are a little less heavy when you laugh about it
i need to lay in bed for a week to make up for one day i overdid it
everytime i feel something even just mildly wrong with my body for more than a few minutes i immediately panic thinking that this might be a new chronic symptom...
which sucks, because that makes my heart rate go up with then causes even more of my regular symptoms
how do i get rid of this anxiety about new symptoms?
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"
i would love a no symptoms day
normal people sick in addition to chronic illness really sucks...
everyone that has a chronic illness already shouldn't get sick in addition to that
started doing physical therapy again and my chronic pain got worse... really debating just quitting rn
me: oh! i think i feel ok today!
me: [sits up]
me: oh. never mind
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
