Living a different life
Many - if not most - of us mighties are spoonies.
If you dont know;
Spoonies is a term from The spoon theory.
Which is a metaphor describing the amount of physical and/or mental energy that a person has available for daily activities and tasks.
This theory also describes how this amount can become limited - due to mental and/or physical health issues.
A spoon is a unit of energy.
And spoonies have fewer than non spoonies.
This is very important to know.
And it is very important to remember.
On top of that many of us have mental health challenges that makes tasks harder to due to a myriad of reasons.
So we both have fewer spoons AND it is sometimes harder for us to use the spoons.
That's why it is so important to acknowledge our wins!
They may seem "small" to some - but for us they are huge.
Please remember to pat yourself on the back for your wins - however they may look to you.
