For those who may not know what it's like to live with a complex neurological condition like CFS/ME, it's a common misconception that people with the condition are simply "tired" or only experience fatigue. In reality, CFS/ME can affect nearly every part of a person's life and often comes with a wide range of symptoms.
What symptoms do you experience alongside chronic fatigue? What does a typical day with CFS/ME look like for you? What are some of the biggest challenges you face while managing the condition? Are there any misconceptions you wish more people understood?

Sometimes, believing two things can be true at the same time is difficult. But this thought was really encouraging and challenges Black and White thinking.
I hope it's helpful to you today.

Over 60 with Mito as a diagnosis and a bunch of comorbidities. The worst of it is gastroparesis right now. My chest, throat and everything all through gets inflamed. My sometimes overinflated gag reflex makes a lot of visits (Dental, etc) difficult and the lack of nutrients between the mito and the gastro means that my hair is dry and brittle, my skin is erratic and I have incredibly inflated problems with sweating. Turns out I break out after the sweating. It all leaves me tired and frustrated. I was used to keeping an eye on bathrooms for IBS, but now I have to keep track of a place to be sick. #MitochondrialDisease #personalcare #Gastroparesis I
This is a fantastic reminder for dark seasons.
