POTS Life Hacks For Diffucult Mornings

UPDATE!

I had to reupload my video due to accidentally adding copy right music (´°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥ω°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥｀)

Things my disability has made me more grateful for:

My support system. I have been around some, let's just say, very mean people in my life. I've curriated a chosen family I couldn't be happier with. With special thanks to my girlfriend and her family for giving me a temporary place to live and taking care of me

Self care. Before while I did take care of my body, I didn't take it as seriously as I should. When I had to use the restroom, shower, brush my teeth, drink water, eat I didn't always attend to my needs. Now a days, even though they are way harder to do, I put in extra effort. Because I deserve it

My art. I have a lot of self esteem issues with my art, and even have shut downs on occasions from a piece not being “perfect.” But at the end of the day, when it’s just me in bed, with my art book, and my markers, I can forget about being disabled. I can fully put effort into something I love and have worked so hard on. And my efforts pay off. I can tell my art is improving

No, I am not I am not glamorizing being chronically ill and disabled. This is the best way I’ve learned to accept and cope with it though

New to pots? Need some advice on managing symptons? Stay posted for my new vid coming out May 13 at 6:00 Eastern Time

Psst… HEY

If you are also queer, disabled, and/or have chronic pain, and wanna see art and other content about it, then feel free to follow my youtube ;))

I've been making shorts, and hopefully filming a full video when I have the energy!

ROUGH DRAFT chronic illness and insomnia

You can't sleep lying on a nail bed. The spikes digging into you. If you lay properly, it distributes all your weight. One wrong move and you're in agonizing pain. You roll around all night, trying to get one minute of rest.

You wake up after trying to sleep for hours. They ask you why you're so tired. No one sees the spiked bed, only you.

I am NOT cured, I repeat I AM NOT CURED 😭😭

Guys.. I was able to take a short walk and go up the stairs easier. I think I might be cured from chronic illness 🤭
