I’m so proud of people living with chronic health conditions. That shit is HARD. Idk who needs to hear this, but if no one else has said it: I’m proud of you. You’re sticking it out through so much pain and grief. That’s no small feat.

Every small thing you do for yourself health adds up. The grief is heavy and it comes from a place of love. The grief knows the pain is wronging you.

I’m proud of you. I hope on the good days you can be proud of yourself.

Keep going.

✨ Things I'm insecure about because of my disabilities ✨

Being unreliable

Having a messy room

Abdominal bloating

Not being 100% on top of my hygiene

Having to excuse myself to the washroom more often

Using my mobility aids

Random bruising

My chicken (weak) legs

Having to explain myself to strangers

Taking the accessible seating on the bus/train

Tripping over myself

My brain fog (I used to have a fantastic memory, I feel like I come off as stupid now)

Being super sweaty

Not being "good representation"

Leaving functions early

Sitting on the floor in public

And so much more. This is a reminder that you're not alone in feeling gross or undesirable, it's also okay to feel that way.

Sometimes you need to feel the feelings before you deal with them.

Born to be a wild creature frolicking through the woods, forced to be a chronically ill, and disabled girl who longs for her old body.

Born to dilly dally, forced to do schoolwork.

Born to fly, forced to be grounded.

Born to run away from everyone, and everything I've ever known, forced to lay in bed pondering, and grieving.

"I'm sorry for being so tired, it'll pass..."

"Don't apologize for something that's out of your control, like you said it'll pass. Just take care of yourself in the meantime."

My health hasn't been the best as of late and it's been a struggle to do anything other than sleep honestly.(I'm lucky I even finished this) We're still working to figure out what's going on, and are currently playing the waiting game. I really really hate not being able to do anything at all. I'm the sort of person who gets pretty restless if I'm not doing anything useful/productive. But I'm trying to cope as best I can, and have been reminding myself that I need this rest. I just have to get through it until I get answers. Bruno has also been helping by keeping my morale up and reassuring me about the situation when he can. Which I appreciate from both him and my family.

(rather be taking care of him)

Do any of y’all have this too and if so what is it and how do I fix it😭

After folding laundry my hands and face get super dry and sad looking. The hands make sense - but my face????

Washing dishes makes my face skin tired and sad looking. Don’t know why! I like doing my dishes! And I use gloves so my hands aren’t exposed.

Cooking certain things also gives me dry dirty?? face skin. Like onions or potatoes. It’s not actual filth on my face - tmi - it’s like the sebum comes out dusty or something. My skin looks so dry and tired and dull.

Same thing with vacuuming. I enjoy vacuuming I don’t know the issue??

TMI - My current theory is that it’s the dry skin just being forced from my pores when I do activities. But none of these tasks are hard for me when I am able and do them. And it doesn’t happen when I do other tasks? I also take breaks where I need if it’s a bad joint day and drink a lot of water.

It’s really annoying😭

Any tips??? I tried adding extra moisturiser but 1. That makes many of these projects more uncomfortable and 2. It’s actually made the skin problem on my face worse.

Any help would be really appreciated😭😭

chronic gastro illness culture is constant nausea, stomach ache and fatigue

If someone sees me on the street they may assume I’m unhealthy because of my size and what they don’t know is I am indeed unhealthy but mostly because of the pain and fatigue I experience every day from (clinical) endometriosis and ibs since before I gained weight . 😎

Does anyone else lose every ounce of energy just trying to wash their hair? Seriously, my blood pressure takes a nosedive whether I'm standing or sitting. Today, after finally managing to wash my hair (because let's be real, it had been a week and it was desperately needed), I ended up lying face-first on the cold bathroom floor just to catch my breath and avoid passing out. The struggle is real, folks. Washing your hair shouldn't feel like training for a marathon, but here I am!
