Just a fellow spoonie 🥄 here to share a relatable hilarious 😄 video.
Being chronically ill, you have to learn to find the humor in your diseases. For me, it's a major way I get by day to day.
This made me smile, I hope it can make you smile as well.

I am getting sick and tired of these manifestation gurus spreading their sanist and ableist bullcrap. I am a manifestation practitioner myself but also believe in science, divine power and God.
Life and existence in all dimensions are all complex notions. We can only guess very little about what it is like in the other dimensions including the afterlife. Simply because we are given a certain capacity to comprehend only so much when it comes to it.
You don’t just come out and claim you figured it all out. Don’t be ridiculous. It’s never only been about one-answers-all. There is impenetrable divine mathematics behind everything.
Yes, there are certain things you can achieve by conditioning your subconscious BUT not everything. Yes, you are responsible from certain occurrences and conditions you are/were in BUT not everything. Yes, we are “one” when it comes to certain aspects and correlations BUT not in all senses. We are same in some senses and very different in others so are the reason(s) of your existence and life purpose(s).
You are not responsible from your own darkness when you’re entrapped in a malfunctioned body and brain since childhood. You don’t create your own reality when you happened to be born into a problematic family and circumstances; when you are exposed to bunch of health and family problems along with variety of traumas since childhood or even during the early adulthood.
Millions of people ought to go through hell because of what’s embedded in their own dna. Among those, there are many that already start getting damaged while in their mother’s womb. For example: Mother drinking alcohol; going through intense stress; going through mental or physical trauma, and accidents during her pregnancy.
You don’t get to make unfortunate people with unfortunate lives that are out of their control feel worse than what they already feel. You don’t get to make them question themselves with all the guilt you inflict upon for the sake of your meep meep propaganda.
Let’s refute your logic simply with general world history. Millions of people died because of wars, terrorism, natural disasters or by act of crime, accidents and luck (such as wrongful police killing). You’re saying a person that died to a bomb on the street created their own reality and own end? Or a kid dying of starvation? Get the f. outta here.
Consciousness and manifestation are great concepts and all when you are sticking to a cause to push your limits within your power. This is not an all fits in one cause nor it’s the resolution of humans. There is no such thing.
Some of these so called manifestation gurus are not only terribly illogical and vulgar but also the preachers of sanism and ableism. They not only promote these notions but also have virulent influence and impact on the people of misfortune and suffering. Stop feeding them. Stop supporting them. Let them know what’s wrong with what they claim and advocate.

I'm back at the hospital again. I go on a trip then end up at the hospital days after I get back. It's not COVID I know that for sure. I'm sick of being in hospitals.
Wish me luck that I don't have to stay here.

So apparently having reactions like crying of pain and so on is too much and annoying for my parents and it's an attention whore behavior...

A very late post for Fibromyalgia Awareness Day, 12th of May.
Fibromyalgia is a disorder characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain accompanied by fatigue, sleep, memory and mood issues.
Many people who have fibromyalgia also have tension headaches, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, irritable bowel syndrome, anxiety and depression.
____________
While today has been another great day on my holidayto France, the pain has been off the charts with every bone in my right foot and ankle feeling like they were broken. Sometimes it's my lower back, sometimes my shoulders, but often my hips, knees, and ankles.
When things are like this, I use crutches as it's impossible to put weight down with whatever foot or leg is in pain.
When I use crutches, it can be very hard to be independent.
For example, an inability to carry a glass of water to my seat, get in or out of a bathtub safely for a shower, or stand at a hob to make meals.
I can not allow myself to struggle as its exhausting and more painful. I have to ask for help, which, as many who know me will tell you, doesn't come easily or naturally to me.
Today my boyfriend has been getting me drinks and food, driving me less than 2 minutes down the road to the local restaurant we were eating at, helping me in and out of the bath, and reminding me to take my meds when the fibro fog has been at its worst. I hate to say it, but he's my carer. At 34 years old, I need someone to do the job I used to do for the elderly.
It's so difficult for me to depend on someone this way, but he's stepped up to a task he didn't even ask for, and does an amazing job. Even when I was married I didn't receive this level of respect and care.
Not all disabilities and illnesses are visible. I'm so glad I have someone like him to help me with mine when so many people struggle alone.

I'm not worried about people faking disabilities. I'm worried about disabled people constantly not being believed.

After it got postponed 2 times due to not enough staff, I finally had my big surgery yesterday. I'm still high from painkillers and the anesthesia, and in a LOT of pain, but it's finally done. Finally.
I've got my laptop with netflix with me to watch HS as soon as I can keep my eyes open longer than a minute, and my phone with beautiful ao3 fics that need to bee read.
Thanks to everyone, especially my WBOFC readers on ao3, who sent me nothing but love and kindness and well-wishes for this hospital trip. I haven't forgotten a single of your words. I love you all. I'm also giggling to myself because much like Nick in my story, I've got one of my IVs (yes I have two lol) right on my wrist and can't move my hand. Now I just need a Charlie to feed me gross noodle soup (that I'm not even allowed to eat urgh).
Okay, rant over. Now it's time to heal.

“The discovery of truth is prevented more effectively, not by the false appearance things present and which mislead into error, not directly by weakness of the reasoning powers, but by preconceived opinion, by prejudice.”

I hate this. I hate this and I wish I could get better because not being able to sleep and function every day hurts.

I'm currently at home for a 24 hours permission and I honestly don't wanna go back. The hospitalization isn't going great and I'm so fucking impatient for it to be over... The nights are hellish, the pain is high af and I'm not even in a flare-up, the food makes me wanna cry and it feels like spending the day waiting for doctors to come in the room to ask questions I answered 100 times before.
I've been diagnosed with Bordeline Personality Disorder on Monday, officially on Wednesday though.
I'm exhausted and I need it to be over.
