BETH ALBURY & MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA You're likely to come across some Cats, Harry Potter, TV Shows, Metal musicians, annoying photos of my face, and a combination of Spoonie humour and anger. I may frequently whinge about my struggles with: Fibromyalgia Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Joint Hypermobility Arthritis Borderline Personality Disorder Depression Anxiety PMDD Dysmenorrhoea

Would be willing to reblog this if you deal with Chronic pain and/or identify as Spoonie?
I’m really struggling right now and I just want to find folks like me to follow so I feel like less alone.

My friend is coming back to Aus after years abroad
I’m so excited to see my friend & catch up on everything in her life but she will have so much to talk about and so many amazing stories and since she’s left I’ve gotten more ill, stopped working, & have nothing exciting happening in my life!

Waiting for a diagnosis sometimes feels like waiting for permission to be ill.

Sometimes it seems like chronic illness has made me feel everything more intensely. Little things like a cup of warm tea or just seeing a dog on the street can brighten my day considerably, but disappointments can have a bigger impact than they ever used to, too.
I guess that’s what happens when you’re trying so hard to cling to the positive aspects of life while being so vulnerable and ill.

Don’t attach yourself to anyone who shows you the least bit of attention because you’re lonely. Loneliness is the human condition. No one is ever going to fill that space. The best you can do is know yourself… know what you want.

I think I want these boots. I haven’t had boots in so long, but they make my giant feet look even more giant. Surely they’d be more comfortable than Vans though!
