Confidence And Helplessness

Just a human living with invisible illnesses and trying to find my footing in this world. You can call me Eileen. My soul is a mess and I am consistently inconsistent.

Cats stretch for physical reasons such as waking up, maintaining flexibility and for communication, signaling affection, trust, contentment and preparing for play.

Movement nudge! If you've been slouched over for some time, get up and stretch!

You don’t have to be constantly distressed about the state of the world to prove you care btw

I've noticed more and more in public bathrooms that people skip the handwash and just take a squirt of hand sanitizer from wall dispensers on the way out. hand sanitizer is NOT effective against most things that come out of your ass and live in public bathrooms. i'm begging y'all. please. please please please please please use the soap. i'm out here immunosupressed fighting for my life to not get naturally selected while people touch a public toilet handle and walk back to their table to immediately eat a burger

How the fuck am I supposed to explain chronic fatigue to someone??? Like I need at least one nap a day to even kind of function in addition to going to sleep earlier than most people might. I am constantly exhausted, I wake up exhausted and I end the day absolutely drained and then I’m expected to do it all again the next day. How the fuck do I explain that sometimes even doing nothing is exhausting? How do I explain that I can’t do things sometimes because I’m so far past tired that I’m essentially not functioning? How do I explain to someone who says they get exhausted but can still function when they’re at that point that my exhausted is completely and utterly different?

Chronically ill people will literally be like bro can you break my forearm real quick. Can you bash my head in the doorway a few times. Can you dislocate my kneecap. Ohhh my god thanks dude that's so much better. Yeah just a really bad flare today.

stop villanizing disabled people. stop assuming we're just being lazy. stop assuming we could be trying harder. stop assuming that we'll "feel better" in a few weeks. stop assuming that we have the same energy levels as everyone else. thanks for coming to my ted talk.
