Doesn’t matter how long you’ve laid in bed with the curtains drawn, hoping the darkness and quiet will offer some relief, an escape from all the guilt and shame you feel. Guilt and shame that comes from collapsing in on yourself, pushing away friends and family, [...]

Chronic Lyme Disease 23h
See full photo

What do you wish others understood more about living with Lyme disease?

Living with Lyme disease can be unpredictable, frustrating, and exhausting. Symptoms can range from chronic fatigue and pain to rashes, neurological and cognitive challenges, mental health struggles, arthritis, heart palpitations, and much more. Because many symptoms are invisible or fluctuate over time, the realities of living with Lyme disease are often misunderstood.

What do you wish others understood better about living with Lyme disease? What has been the most challenging part of your experience? What resources, treatments, or coping strategies have been the most helpful? Where do you feel you need more support right now?

✏️ Handwritten paper lists all day, every day
🖍️ I live by my whiteboard/erasable calendar
💻 A blank Microsoft Word doc = my friend
📳 I like to use the Notes app on my phone
📱 I have a favorite list-making app (which one?!)
🤷‍♂️ None of the above, I’m not a list-maker
