Post-exertional malaise (PEM) isn't laziness. It's a delayed flare of symptoms after even minor activity. Pacing isn't optional it's essential. tinyurl.com/Fibro-Udemy #fibromyalgia #mecfs #chronicillness #spoonies #womenshealth

“You haven’t seen my worst days because I hide them from you… It’s easy to judge a person’s condition by what you see…but you can’t rely on that… You aren’t seeing all of me. What you see one day does not accurately depict every day.” buff.ly/3YmvVNM #chronicillness


"#ChronicIllness changes everything. At the beginning of many people’s chronic illness journey, they may feel as if #illness is an annoying detour that will be forgotten as soon as they can heal & get back to business as usual.": buff.ly/iXfSC7c via @PsychToday #disabled


Good evening my lovely brother. 🫂 I am always thinking of you. I have spotted se nice spring flowers and look, who else I have found?! 🐇🌷 The link to contribute a little help for our dear Hassan to survive in war-torned #Yemen ⬇️ #chronicillness gofundme.com/help4hassan ❤️

So living with chronic illness and/or disability needs limitless load of strength,energy and patience. Kindness from others,not as a pity but as an empathy is in the heart of need. #chronicillness



I thought I had loads of friends… turns out I had proximity. Chronic illness has a way of showing you who’s really there when life isn’t convenient anymore. It’s painful, but it’s also clarity. #ChronicIllness #MultipleSclerosis #MSAwareness #DisabledLife #MSReality


When your horizons shrink try to focus on small positives. Today for me that was designing and making a tiny worry plush, a wee monster to scoop up our worries and take them away. #wellness #chronicillness

"I’m fine" is the heaviest lie we tell. Living with chronic illness is a mental marathon of grief and invisible battles. If you’re shattering under weight no one else sees: I see you. You don’t have to be "fine" today. ⛈️🔗 #ChronicIllness #MentalHealth

YES! This is how my mother explained her pain scale to me before she died, 19 years ago. #chronicillness #painscale

This is one of the most accurate things I’ve seen in a long time. Chronic illness doesn’t just change your pain level, it rewires your entire scale.



You explain again: what #sicklecell means, why absences happen, accommodations needed. Last term’s teacher understood. They had #systems in place. New term. New teacher. All that understanding? Gone. Consistency matters for #chronicillness. Schools aren’t built for it. 2/4


“If you are someone with #chronicillness or a #raredisease, you know how difficult the hospital can be… So many #spoonies fear the emergency room because they’re afraid of how they will be treated, so they choose to stay at home…in agonizing pain.” buff.ly/48eC7fo #cpp
