There’s no such thing as work-life balance for neurodivergent & chronically ill people.

This is because everything in my life requires work:

maintaining friendships

keeping up with my hygiene

managing bills

making money

remembering my basic needs

sleeping regularly

outputting creatively

All requires some aspect of work for me.

And when everything in your life requires work, your balance goes out the window.

If you're neurodivergent and overwhelmed — I see you.

If you're chronically ill and overwhelmed — I see you.

You're not dysfunctional.

You're not incapable.

You're doing your best.

I may be extremely ace, but damn...Throb Zombie makes me feel things when in costume. They are....very sexy in their performances.

Yes please!

I’m thinking of making a discord server for crafters with disabilities/chronic illnesses

It would have multiple channels for generic chat about knitting/crochet/other fibre arts, as well as channels dedicated to venting about illness, asking for advice or tips on dealing with pain while crafting etc.

Please like/reblog this post if this is something you’d be interested in!

I will set up the server if there are 10 people interested, and we can see if it grows from there :)

I spoke too soon. The meds helped the first time. I stayed awake. The pain was dulled but not eliminated.

These meds, the only two times I stayed awake after taking them, only slightly dulled the edge off.

Otherwise, every time I've taken it besides those two instances, has just knocked me out cold for hours. Which, cannot be happening.

I basically wake up. I'm in pain. I take meds. I pass out. I wake up in pain. Rinse repeat. My husband cannot keep staying up during his sleeping hours then working his overnights.

He's recovered from this mystery illness thankfully but I haven't. I need relief. I'm in so much fucking pain. I really don't want to go back to the ER, or even urgent care because, will they even consider pain medications? It's been over a week now of pain. (More pain than my usual chronic pain throughout the rest of my body)

The meds did help. Nausea was relieved and same with the cramping. Though I really wish I had taken my next dose sooner. The cramping is coming back and now I have a buffer period where the pain exists and the meds haven't kicked in yet. But. Hopefully it'll bring relief again here soon.

My weirdass dreams is how I became a writer

Wow I just found an old note in my phone and some fucker me from the past wrote a really cool story based on a dream. I was reading it being like wow this is cool what happens next but it turns out I didn’t write the ending.
