Hi, my Alivetoday. I'm here because I want to share my story, help others feel less alone and along the way hopefully feel less alone myself.

Hi everyone! My name is Emma, and I’m the founder of Chronic and Capable. 💛**
I started Chronic and Capable because I know firsthand what it feels like to navigate life with a chronic illness. I live with Wilson disease, a rare genetic condition, and throughout my own journey, I’ve realized how important it is to see the people behind the diagnosis.
We are so much more than our medical charts, medications, appointments, and symptoms. We are students, professionals, artists, athletes, friends, advocates, and people with dreams and ambitions.
That’s why I created Chronic and Capable: a space dedicated to sharing the real stories of people living with chronic illness and disability—the challenges we face, but also the lives we continue to build alongside them.
I’m currently looking for individuals who would be interested in sharing their stories and experiences with Chronic and Capable. You don’t need to be a writer or have a large social media following. I simply want to create a space where honest experiences can be heard and where someone else might find comfort in realizing they’re not alone.
If you’re interested in being featured—or know someone who might be—I'd truly love to connect. 💛
Learn more and share your story at chronicandcapable.netlify.app
Thank you for helping me build a community where we can recognize that living with a chronic illness doesn't take away from everything we are capable of.

Hi, my name is Jenni. I'm here because
Life with chronic pain, depression, and anxiety sucks, and I feel isolated. No one in my life truly gets what it's like, and I often feel like all I ever do is try to justify how I feel to the people around me. #MightyTogether #Fibromyalgia #Anxiety #Depression #PTSD
When you’re depressed, hopelessness can feel less like an emotion and more like a prediction. You feel like nothing will change, so your mind starts telling you that nothing can change. The feeling is real, but that doesn’t mean the future your mind is imagining is real too.
Your emotions deserve compassion, especially when you’re struggling. But you can acknowledge how you feel without allowing that feeling to decide what happens next. Instead of letting “I feel hopeless” become “my life is hopeless,” remind yourself of something you can do, something you have already survived, or one small way you can take care of yourself today.
You don’t need to suddenly feel hopeful about your entire future. Sometimes you just need to stop letting today’s pain write tomorrow’s story.
What’s one thing you’ve made it through that once felt impossible?
Also, if you're going through a tough time right now, I want you to know that I post daily mental health videos about how to deal with painful thoughts.
