i think eda is becoming a synpath/copinglink for me. her curse reminds me a lot of my own chronic illness. it worsens with stress and i have severe emetophobia, so as i've struggled and tried to contain it over the years, i've finally just become so worn down mentally and physically that i feel like all there is left to do is sort of come to terms with it and stop being so frustrated with my body. i do not live with chronic illness, chronic illness lives with me
