siphonophores will never not freak me out. stop doing that its SCARY but also please don't ever stop doing that you ethereal marine cryptid

Learning your limits with chronic pain is such a pain in the ass. Especially if you were very active before being blessed with your new condition.

So I have fibromyalgia and arthritis, and even though it's been well over a year since this initial flare took me down, I haven't quite gotten the hang of stopping before I make it worse. I am finally able to work/be active a few hours a day provided that there is sufficient time to lie down and rest between those hours. Even sitting upright counts as part of the "active hours".

Anyway, yesterday I worked, did my grocery shopping, put some of the groceries away, and organized some yarn. At some point, I was like oh I should make some calls today but I couldn't. I literally had no energy left. And I kept beating myself up over it. Like they're just phone calls, it's not hard, I can surely make a few phone calls and get them off my list. That was the loop on repeat in my head.

But then I was like wait, how do I feel in my body? What's happening in my body right now? When I checked in with my body, I realized that I was in more pain than I was aware of and had already gone slightly overboard on activity. That's when the loop in my head finally stopped and I laid down without any guilt.

I say all this because it's not fucking intuitive at all. Learning to adjust to your condition and energy level is a bitch and nobody really tells you how to do that. And most people will fight against it until they absolutely can't anymore, making their symptoms much worse than they would be on their own. Basically this is a learn from my mistakes post. I hope it helps someone out. ✌️

Curator design let's go

Guys i don't even know what to do, i am so stuck and every move i can make is wrong. My job gives me money and something stable for rental applications, because i want to move out of my parent's house so so badly and have been trying for so long. At the same time it is actively breaking me down mentally and physically, and i would prefer to leave my job alive. But i can't quit without having something lined up after, and i really can't keep changing jobs just to have to quit after a few months. I know that I'm gonna have to figure out some way to sustain myself on my own and that is bloody terrifying. And that also means that i can't move out, which would also affect my friends, but i really need to get out of my parent's place god help me
