FATIGUE IN ME/CFS 
"Remember the time you were so exhausted you couldn't wait to go to sleep? I feel like that everyday. The difference is that when I wake up, I feel the same. Remember when you came down with the flu and felt like you were hungover, your head throbbed, you had no energy, and everything hurt? I feel like that everyday."

"It helps to separate 2 questions that get tangled together: who did I lose & who am I building now. The 1st one is #grief & it deserves its own space & its own timeline. Rushing past it to get to “finding yrslf” usually backfires.": buff.ly/9JQ8khR

"Some things I find #beautiful in my everyday life (or am #grateful for), despite #ChronicPain include.. #Flowers. Did I say I love flowers? To me, they represent life so perfectly — fragile, short-lived, but so, so beautiful.": buff.ly/TtDYJne

Celebrating small victories today: got out of bed, took my meds on time, and managed a short walk. On a rough week, that's a win.

Impact of fatigue in ME/CFS 
"I have mild ME. Everyone assumes because it's mild it isn't that bad and in the scale of ME I'm lucky but it has changed my life. I can barely attend college and when I do it makes me very ill. If I go to college I don't have the energy to do anything else really. I can't read regularly and go out with my friends. I don't know if I will ever be able to work. My mental health took a massive hit especially when you watch people your age thrive and be able to do everything they want when you are so often stuck inside...."

Being a burned out caretaker/parent doesn’t excuse abuse. I refuse to accept the normalization of using/abusing a vulnerable dependent to self-regulate because the caretaker is struggling.

Some days the hardest part is explaining to people why you look fine but feel terrible. You're not making it up. Your symptoms are real, your fatigue is real, and you deserve support.
