November was a month of small accomplishments.

I...
1.) reinstated my state insurance (medicaid)
2.) got my food share reinstated, too.
3.) began the process of applying for SSI/SSDI
4.) started going to the gym to swim, walk on the treadmill, and ride the stationary cycles.
5.) decided to go back to therapy.
6.) became more honest with EVERYONE about my disabilities and chronic illnesses. started writing about spoonie life and how to navigate my “new normal”
7.) am currently preparing the launch of my YouTube channel about my life, disabilities, chronic illnesses, the ableism of our world, and survival. it’s basically just a vlog channel but I’m excited.
8.) started eating healthier (admittedly I did not keep up with the healthy eating this weekend. shrug.)
9.) talked openly with my partner about what my accessibility needs are in our house, in our sex life, and in our intimate emotional life. We had a good, honest, mutual chat.
10.) I SURVIVED ANOTHER MONTH IN AN ABLEIST WORLD RUN BY LATE-STAGE CAPITALISM AND GREED! #monthlycheckin #Fibromyalgia #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis #MyofascialPainSyndrome #DegenerativeDiscDisease #BipolarDepression #Anxiety #Ableism #Capitalism #survival #selfcare #successes #accessibilityneeds #Youtube #vlogs #CripplePunk
