This is what brain fog is, and why it is so debilitating. It’s also suffering deep burns on your hands because your reactions were too slow to notice they were being seared by the oven rack. #chronicillness #brainfog #disability

The most well-meaning “suggestions” from friends do not consider my reality.
Them: “You need a nice vacation to relax.”
Me: I’m immune compromised & do not “do” public places 😷 . I don’t walk & need my mobility scooter 🛵; can’t have 🛄 damage. No to ✈️; my home is safe.

Selective empathy and spoonie blaming is a VERY dangerous kind of ableism. It enables abusive dynamics to persist and has a body count.

Sometimes regaining yourself doesn’t mean getting your old life back.

It means discovering what becomes possible from where you are now.

By “broke” I mean it forced me to make the needed changes to better accommodate my particular challenges. Take care of you 🌹

#ChronicIllness #ChronicPain #Eczema #Autoimmune #Diability #BeKind #NotAlone
Text in picture: “I have a disability, but I’m NOT disabled!” This was the phrase I said out loud that finally broke me. I have theories on why I feel this way. But the truth is: this is hard to admit and talk about. I said that out of desperation on the phone with my job supervisor in the parking lot of my doctor’s office. I don’t like to be pessimistic or post overly negative things often. I prefer keeping my posts light and encouraging as it’s so easy to get pulled into a rage-bait undertow in places like this. Disability isn’t the end. It’s hard, it’s unfair, and it’s frustrating. It’s a change. I’m adapting and I’m trying my best. I didn’t choose this, but I can make the decisions needed to accept and work towards my own betterment.
