It’s concerning how pain becomes your comfort zone until you don’t know any different. #chronicpain #chronicillness #chronicpainramblings #alwaysinpain

Do better society, you may be worse than being chronically ill, bed bound or housebound!!

If you are an able-bodied person reading this, please consider the notion that if you knew the world was about to end, and no one believed you, so you couldn’t save yourself or others, how would you feel?

I’m not sure I could recognise who I was before my illnesses. #chronicpain #chronicillness #chronicpainramblings #sick #Disability #alwaysinpain #ouch #disabled #identity #WhoAmI

Being an observer rather than a participant in life is a different kind of pain. #ChronicPain #chronicillness #chronicpainramblings #alwaysinpain #fearofmissingout #FOMO

Putting our lives on pause, being housebound/bed bound, excluded from everything, it’s a different type of pain. One that no one understands, making it even more isolating. Sometimes the illness itself is only half the battle. #chronicillness #chronicpainramblings #chronicpain

Anyone else have more pillows under their legs instead of their head because of #POTS? Trying to get some blood back to the rest of my body! The things #chronicillness makes us do…

(2/2) Our bodies can take away the things we love most, and no one realises that until it hits them. It’s all totally unexplained and we’re left to deal with it on top of everything else. Chronic illness is honestly draining in so many ways! #chronicpainramblings #alwaysinpain

Does the grief just hit anyone else suddenly? When you realise you won’t be able to do old hobbies, relive some of your favourite memories, just have a day where you aren’t always wired on to think about meds, pain and exertion etc. CONTINUED (1/2) #chronicpain #chronicillness

This is a reality for too many of us. #chronicpain #chronicillness #alwaysinpain #chronicpainramblings #NeverGiveUp #warrior #pain

You know it’s bad if it literally hurts to breathe! #chronicpain #chronicillness #alwaysinpain #chronicpainramblings

👏 👏 Well said! It takes one to know one; if you haven’t had chronic pain it’s almost impossible to fully understand. #chronicpain #chronicillness #alwaysinpain #chronicpainramblings

Daily things chronically ill and disabled people experience that most don't:

- Pain, fatigue and other symptoms
- Not remembering how pain free feels
- Needing to rest after small tasks
- Taking daily meds
- Constant medical appointments
- Not having access needs met
- Ableism

My explanation for the pain to ‘normal’ people - I am #alwaysinpain even if I don’t show it! I do not need to repeat myself soooo much. #chronicpain #chronicillness #chronicpainramblings
