You know you are a spoonie when you have a favorite vein for your blood draw

It’s okay to have a bad night, and cry, and yell into a pillow. It’s okay to be pissed because you were dealt a shitty hand. But you made it through today, and you’re going to make it through tomorrow. I believe in you.

Lately I’ve been having a lot of moments where I realize how little the people in my life understand my chronic illness, and it’s been really stressful. I thought they got it but they just thought I was better because I’m working part time/in school again... but every single day feels like a battle I’m motivated to fight just out of fear of being seen as lazy

it doesn’t matter how good you’re doing, those sad nights will creep up on you from time to time and that’s ok. doesn’t mean all your progress is gone

Me: I’m doing too much. I need to rest and take care of my body.

Also Me: I’m not doing enough. I need to get more stuff done.
