#CheckInWithMe: Give and get support here.

Managing health conditions can be complex and time-consuming.
Understanding your needs and symptoms while balancing daily tasks and schedules to accommodate different aspects of your life and health can add an extra layer of exhaustion.

Not to mention having to explain those complexities, demands, and challenges to others on a regular basis — whether that looks like canceling plans, not being able to show up the way you'd like because of your health, or explaining things to a health professional.

What’s something you’re tired of explaining to others?

One thing about me is that I’m always thinking about something—whether I want to or not. My mind is like the ending credits of a movie, except the movie never really ends. The credits in my mind feel like a jumbled mess of responsibilities, finances, worries, past relationships and friendships, and things I need to do. But mixed in are also ideas I have, ways I can be creative, and goals I want to achieve.

Can anyone else relate? Do you find yourself overthinking? If so, what topics tend to come up for you?

A great way to strengthen the relationships and bonds you have with the people who are important to you is to engage in fun activities or hobbies together. From watching movies to craft projects, board games, going out to eat, or even tried-and-true conversation, the possibilities are endless!

What are your favorite ways to pass the time with those you love?
