On #myspoons today I want to talk about other people's expectations & ableism about your symptoms.
The ones that plague me the most are #fatigue & #chronicpain. I went from writing 1800 words an hour, up to 4x daily?
To falling asleep while writing a single tweet. & Still needing at least 5 minutes of rest after sometimes.
Getting coffee when I was abled:
⭐️get up
⭐️go downstairs
⭐️5 minute job at most
I miss that sometimes. Like today. I've been trying to get a cup of coffee for an hour.

How does it take an hour? Let us ask #myspoons.
While I wait. Again. To have a minimal level of functionality in my body.

Getting coffee while in #chronic pain:
✅ 2 dry runs before being able to sit up or stand in minimal pain
✅ Rest periods for each action
✅ Stop by the rest room like an idiot*
✅ Rest from that.
✅ Stairs
✅Rest from that
Almost an hour later? Too fucking late for coffee.

I keep downloading apps and forgetting to use them. Or what I'm doing. Or what meds are called.

Yesterday while watching #GreysAnatomy I asked my niece what the doctor place is called.
The hospital. At least that's what I gathered from her giggle fit.

Today #myspoons were supportive. I received support from others via Twitter.
We committed & shared stories. I only wish I had the energy to respond when the original poster began to vent.

If you ever become a #spoonie with #chronicpain, #fatigue or other conditions that cause you to become #housebound, you may find yourself searching for community, support, tips or other types of help.
The web can provide that.

[fun #brainfog thread] So I'm walking down the hallway & forget my cane. I turn around muttering what a great idea it is to attempt stairs.
I hear my sister's phone ring in the next room thinking "how rude. Everyone knows the poor girl is studying." I hear "hello" & look down.
I AM THE ONE CALLING HER. Plus I can't remember what was so important. I laugh, apologize, hang up. & Sit down cuz WHY TF DID I COME BACK.
