I hate asking but I can’t draw due to chronic pain and my gfs last job literally made them develop asthma and we are very desperate right now. we’ve been surviving off of my gfs last paycheck and my savings and making it stretch but we just can’t anymore

we are two black disabled lesbians in a household of 6. we don’t have many groceries and our main priority is my little brother, my cat and my grandma. my gf is trying to get a job but is currently facing employment discrimination and is getting ghosted and rejected constantly. atm I’m STILL waiting to speak to a doctor because my chronic pain is making it to where I can’t stand or hold anything heavier than a drawing without significant difficulty.

usually I would offer commissions but I’m in too much pain to draw, I’m sorry. I just wanna be able to get some groceries

Okay archaeology friends, field season is nigh in my part of the world and I'm determined to create (and stick to) a quick, easy, and effective morning/night stretch routine this year to prevent my body from falling apart too early. I found a pretty simple set of stretches recommended for construction workers, which I'll post below, but if anyone has suggestions for modifying it for the needs of your average field tech I'd be most grateful.

sometimes I want to make a comprehensive "lupus symptoms" post but then I remember that the symptoms of lupus are just symptoms so if you have any symptoms congratulations you have a symptom of lupus

every time I experience a Symptom Of Fibromyalgia (a condition I have been diagnosed with) I google it and its always like "this is a symptom of fibromyalgia" and I always feel like that's not what's going on even though it probably is anyway I'm having a bad fibro episode rn I think how's everybody else doing?

Okay so I saw the post about needed more sfw coryo content I was wondering if you could do one where the reader gets migraines and it’s just him taking care of reader?

I’m not too sure if you’ll do this but you work is amazing and tysm pookie ❤️

I am absolutely furious right now (not at you, this ask was amazing and fun to write) I had like a 1K word fic for this and then my Internet glitched out and I lost the entire freaking thing

so here is me hurriedly trying to rewrite it

Warnings: none, entirely sfw, slightly ooc coryo, one use of Y/N, corio and reader are already dating

You sank into your chair. It had been a long day, and your migraines had been absolutely relentless. You were exhausted and honestly just wanted to lay down.

But you had invited your boyfriend Coriolanus Snow over for dinner, and it wouldn’t be a great dinner if you just slept through it. But you were really tired, so you figured if you sat down for just a few minutes, you’d still have time to make something for dinner.

Then you heard the door open, and a familiar voice said, “Y/N? It’s me, Coriolanus.”

“I’m in here,” you said, standing up, ignoring the instant rush of dizziness that flooded to your head. “Sorry I didn’t make anything for dinner yet, I…forgot you were coming over.”

That was a horrible excuse and you both knew it. Even if you did forget, you wouldn’t forget about dinner entirely. You hadn’t made any food at all. Since you’d gotten home, you had just been lying down.

Coriolanus raised an eyebrow. “Are you sure?”

“Well….no,” you admitted, because what was the point of lying? He’d figure it out eventually, or just help you make a late dinner, and then you’d be more exhausted. “I’ve been having really bad migraines all day, and I didn’t want to make anything for dinner but I also didn’t want to just cancel our dinner together, so, I’m sorry.”

Coriolanus gently took your hand in his. “You don’t need to apologize for that. It wasn’t your fault. How about you go lie down and I’ll get you a cold washcloth?”

That sounded amazing to you, but you were still concerned about one thing. “What about you?” you asked. “Don’t you still need to eat?”

“I can eat a late dinner when I get back to my house,” Coriolanus said, leading you to your bedroom. “Right now, I just want to help you feel better.”

He walked into your bedroom with you, and the second you collapsed in your bed, you didn’t feel like arguing with him about it anymore. It was much more comfortable than you’d been all day.

Just a minute or so later, Coriolanus returned with a cold washcloth and a cup of water.

“Drink this,” he said as he placed the washcloth on your forehead. “It’ll help. I think.”

You drank the water and then set the cup on your nightstand. “Thanks, Coryo,” you said. “Would it be okay if I just laid here for a while?”

“Of course,” Coriolanus said. “I’ll just be in the main room, can you come and get me if you need anything?”

“Yeah,” you said, pulling the washcloth over your eyes. “Thank you, again.”

“Of course, again,” he smiled and clicked the light off on his way out.

@werevampiwolf I tried using a cane for a couple years. Unfortunately it was only really helpful when I started having structural issues with my feet (which custom orthotics will probably help) or the unexplained and occasional rash+swelling in my knees. For flareups ultimately I found canes to be an extra thing to manage when walking is enough to exhaust me. Which was a valuable thing to learn, I wouldn’t have known if I hadn’t tried. I think my main issue is fatigue and dizziness when I stand too long from POTS & ME/CFS. Most times I can just squat or sit on the floor for 5 minutes and feel better. So idk how helpful mobility aids would be for me

sometimes looking at like Self Help Strategies lists for the symptoms I'm having is always just like:

thing that I already do

thing I have tried 10 times

thing I already do

thing that I don't have the money to do

thing I already do

thing I've been doing since I was 10yrs old to no avail

thing that is impossible given my situation

thing that doesn't apply to me

thing that I already do

thing I have already tried

hrmm, oh wait, maybe finally- OH, yeah.. okay. thing that I already do but it was just phrased slightly differently

thing I have already done

Things they teach you in middle school science class: the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell!

Things they SHOULD teach you in science class: do NOT mix cleaning chemicals or you will chloroform yourself (or worse)
