The absolute agony when your mind doesn’t have enough energy to be conscious and process simply being alive and yet you still exist.

@sidneyeileen.bsky.socialFun Friday!
What brought joy into your life recently, no matter how big, small, or fleeting? Joy is the fuel that sustains and reminds us why we keep going.

@angioedemanews.bsky.socialSaying no to the wrong foods can mean fewer attacks, more energy, and a body that feels just a little bit safer.

@alexisx-au.bsky.socialSo much this. And it's draining to have to explain this to people, who regardless will probably just throw you in their arrogantly dismissive "doesn't _really_ want to get better" basket. Which, btw, can cause further psychological harm to a chronically ill person.

It helped me..be recognized as a “responsible #adult.”

@smartpatient.bsky.socialIf your doctor ever tells you it's all in your head, find a new doctor. Your symptoms matter. Your experience matters. Keep advocating for yourself.
@smartpatient.bsky.socialThe worst part about chronic illness isn't always the pain. It's the uncertainty. Not knowing if tomorrow will be a good day or a bad day. Learning to plan around that is a skill nobody teaches you.

@achronicvoice.com"Outside, the world carries on uninterrupted..Cars pass. Life hums along. Inside my #body, the rules rewrite themselves without warning. It feels like being #gaslit by my own body. I insist I’m fine. My body..stubbornly disagrees.": buff.ly/ox669I2
@achronicvoice.com"But the worst part? It’s not the symptoms. It’s the looks..it's the #gaslighting of the #disabled .. #doctors, relatives, strangers. Everyone’s an expert until u ask them to live a week in your ruined skin.": buff.ly/6ayKim3
