"There are days I wish I could prescribe #PeaceOfMind as easily as I prescribe blood pressure #medication. But it doesn’t work that way. #Peace can’t be ordered. It has to be earned—through trust, #communication, and presence.": https://t.co/TpiwfjzQSe via @kevinmd#PatientCare
“#ChronicPain can disrupt sleep, which in turn, exacerbates the pain, creating a distressing cycle. This disruption heightens #anxiety, reduces pain tolerance, and diminishes emotional resilience, making day-to-day coping a challenge.” https://t.co/I98MOCg95g #MentalHealthMatters
Endometriosis deserves space in the healthcare system - and accountability. It's a chronic condition. Pts need consistent NHS follow-ups. Neglect leads to more pain, harder surgeries, and disrupts lives. What more needs to be said?

“Don’t waste a precious minute feeling like a burden. If we could change our situations, we would. Instead, let’s #advocate for one another… And if the word “burden” somehow weasels its way into our heads, may we replace it with warrior.” https://t.co/pV5ZAxKOSN #chronicillness
When doctors dismiss real symptoms, it delays treatment, adds to the trauma, and makes people question their pain.
To anyone who has been dismissed or unheard, we believe you and we see you.
You deserve answers and better care 💛

“It’s not fair to have the same expectations from us as you would from a perfectly healthy person. This is a never-ending struggle! Most people tend to forget that #chronicillness is something you have to deal with every day of your life.” https://t.co/y0aReSXydu #pwME#pwLC#cpp
A reminder on one of the hardest days of the year for me. It is never ok to ask someone when they are starting a family, never. Thinking of everyone struggling today. #ChildlessNotByChoice
gentle reminders for my endo girlies this month:
your journey is yours, don’t compare
you don’t have to share your story
you’re allowed to disconnect
advocate for yourself
prioritise rest & healing
protect your peace
you’re not alone
you are enough
you are seen
💛
