I re/post tweets related to #chronicillnesses to spread info, offer support, & build our #neisvoid community. #CRPS #disability #dysautonomia #chronicpain 🦓🥄

[Spoon Central 🦓🥄 @spoon_central]

People with #chronicillness in the #NEISvoid are worth being seen and supported! I challenge each of you to share this video so we can spread awareness about how we #spoonies live our lives!

@Endo_Jenn Yes! Even the smallest of stretches help remind me that my body still works and that I'm alive.

This month my local library is challenging the community to read a book that either has a main character with or is about invisible illnesses. I'm so here for it! What books have you loved that have characters with a #chronicillness? #Spoonies #neisvoid

I know there are a lot of GoFundMe's being circulated, but this one is for a family member who desperately wants to regain freedom by getting a new wheelchair. Every dollar helps! https://t.co/RXIK85iD4N

I feel this so hard right now.

[Men Have Lupus @menhavlupus]

A #spoonie family needs our help...#SingleParent & #disabled. Even $5 helps. Can you help? https://t.co/0hTmmnWjaA #MenHaveLupus #LupusRevolution #LupusaurusRex @patriciamenden7 @PainReaction1 @spoon_central @Clint99105373 @HonorJustLoyal @EDLMCLAURIN @FlemingInUSA

After last night's night-sweats, I went through 5 changes of clothes. At work right now, utterly exhausted, but refusing to miss out on an important meeting. I'm currently drinking the lowest caffeine tea I could find (needed a little boost), and it tastes like the smell of A&D.

I went away for a work conference (it was great!) and am now suffering the post-excitement hangover. Brain fog. Unstable mood. Exhaustion. I feel better knowing what it actually is as opposed to thinking something else was wrong. Guess I'm watching zoo shows in pjs today.

Before leaving for my conference, Luca said "but I don't want you to go to Hogwarts!" I'm proud that he made a Harry Potter reference and honored that he thought I was cool enough to go to Hogwarts!

People don't realize that with chronic illnesses, you mourn the life you used to leave and the one you thought you were going to lead but now can't. Every time an illness steals something else from you, you go through the entire process all over again, as if it was the first time

I’m still in here somewhere I tell myself.Fibromyalgia has stolen so many things from me.I have trouble accepting that I cannot do the things I used to do.Then there is The Judgement and Family&Friends who don’t understand.This is effecting my Mental Health.Does anybody resignate

[Spoon Central 🦓🥄 @spoon_central]

I can't tell you how much I love and appreciate this post @Tara_Moss ! This. Is. Everything. I wish everyone could see, understand, and feel this.

[Tara Rae Moss @Tara_Moss]

You cannot see strength from the outside. True strength and resilience cannot be perceived with the eye.

Make no mistake. I have never been more resilient. I have never been more true to myself. I have never been stronger.

If you know someone with a chronic illness that lost power due to recent storms, check on them! They may be desperate for power so they can utilize the devices that keep them alive and safe!

Happy #InternationalWomenDay ! Thank you to everyone who inspired me to be the woman I am today!

[Spoon Central 🦓🥄 @spoon_central]

I've learned through Spoon Central how much I love advocating for people and impacting change! Thank you all for being part of my self-discovery journey!

Still sick (not covid)...starting week 3. Let's see what the doctor has to say. On the bright side, my students pay closer attention to me because of my sick voice. They want to laugh (it souns funny so I encourage it) and actually hear what I'm saying.

[Spoon Central 🦓🥄 @spoon_central]

@HemingwayMuse I feel this hard today.

[Spoon Central 🦓🥄 @spoon_central]

Not to brag, but I can breathe out of both nostrils today...most of the time.

@RainbowStephan Been there, my friend. Been there.
