From people who came through it
“For anyone new to this: I've been there. For me it was in 2023. POTS and fainting in the queue at the shop. That was my life. I went on holiday in the summer and actually relaxed. It changes. It really does. Keep going, even slowly.”
chess_train43 · been through chronic illness“I was in the same place eighteen months ago. The worst part was explaining an invisible illness to my manager. Last month I had people round for dinner. The bad days get further apart. Hang on.”
pagetea80 · been through chronic illness“For whoever is where I was: I've been there. For me it was in 2023. Lupus flares that come with no warning, every single day. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It's slow, but it does come back.”
Sophia from Tacoma K · been through chronic illness“To whoever needs this: I was where you are eighteen months ago. A blood test every month, every single day. My kids say I'm back.”
