That chronic life.

I'm creating this blog to find and give support for my chronic illnesses: Fibromyalgia, IBS, PCOS, endometriosis, insomnia, depression, anxiety, PTSD/ C-PTSD, ADHD, migraines, IST, POTS, hip dysplasia, CRPS, FND, and a sneaking suspicion that the world wants me to fail. they/them

Okay I gotta say, the split dose method of the colonoscopy prep is absolutely brilliant 10/10 would recommend. However, what i would NOT recommend is then scheduling said colonoscopy for 8:25am because that means a 6:55am check in and that means you're up at 12:55 chugging salt water and shitting your brains out just to have to wake up at 5:30 again to get ready to leave for your actual colonoscopy. 👎

And this is why its important to do your entire colonoscopy prep even if you're coming back clear because there can be pockets of it that can hide and need to be flushed by doing the whole prep. Learning this for yall ✊️

Fibromyalgia is so ridiculous.

What do you mean the name just means "muscle hurt"

What do you mean the pain is worse when it rains

What do you mean its a whole body systematic thing that half of doctors think is make believe.

What do you mean my body is so tired I could sleep for ten years.

Me calling myself disabled isn't me "being negative" or "giving up", it's me knowing that I have real struggles that I need to accommodate which aren't my fault. Which is a positive thing as opposed to hating and blaming myself for things outside my control.

Cis men will never know the pain of having diarrhea all day then pissing and having it dribble down your taint to burn open your asshole and honestly it shows. Smh.

“Haha, now you’ve got plenty of toxic meds inside of your little body…”

As a chronically ill young person, no one teaches you how to grieve the life you should have had.

I had so many plans that were stolen from me by my illness and no one taught me how I'm supposed to deal with that.

"The elderly, immunocompromised,

vulnerable, and disabled people

are getting cancelled daily

by people's callous attitudes.

The pandemic isn't over for us.

We were cancelled at the start,

and we are being cancelled now.

It's relentless."
