Rare Disease

A few uplifting, encouraging, or comforting words can make a big difference when you're struggling. Whether it’s realistic advice, an informative perspective, or simply a reminder that you’re not alone, support from others can be incredibly powerful.

Our Mighty community is a beautiful example of connection and compassion. 💌

What’s the best thing someone has ever said to you during a tough time?

Here's a nice morning ritual to have for yourself. Does reading this first thing in the day help bring peace from a restless night or perhaps more positivity about an uncertain future? What is your morning routine?

Also, I make mental health video responses to many of your questions. The latest one is about the power of journaling for mental clarity. If this sounds useful, check it out by clicking one of the links below:

No matter how long you've known someone or been in a situation or circumstance, sometimes it's still super challenging to communicate effectively. No judgment here, we totally get it. 🙋

@sparklywartanks says she struggles to communicate effectively when she feels uncomfortable, anxious, or around someone she hasn't spoken to in a long time.

What about you? In what situations is it challenging for you to communicate effectively?

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks has been adjusting her sleep schedule after Daylight Saving Time kicked in this past weekend where she lives. She's feeling exhausted trying to catch up—losing an hour has felt like losing an entire night! 😩🛌

How has everyone else been sleeping lately?

Whether it’s with strangers, ourselves, or with people we know, we are constantly communicating with those around us. And, like many things in life, practice, familiarity, trust, and other factors can influence how accustomed and comfortable we are with that communication (some more than others).

Who do you communicate most effectively with in your life?

As we navigate the unpredictable ups, downs, twists, and turns of our daily experiences—whether symptom flares, setbacks, or breakthroughs—being reminded of our choices and grounding our perspective can give us the boost or spark we need to keep moving forward on our journeys.

Even if just for a moment, what do you choose to let go of today? And what do you choose to accept instead?

Welcome to a fresh week, Mighty friends!

Today, let’s take a moment to brainstorm and create a list of potential goals for the days ahead.

💚 One self-care goal
🧡 One physical or mental health goal
💜 One creative or personal interest goal
🩵 One ‘just for fun’ goal

🌱 Gentle reminder: It’s perfectly OK if your goals change or move to the “to-do later” category in your weekly priorities. There’s no pressure to accomplish everything, especially within a limited amount of time and energy. You get to decide what’s important!

Here's Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks list:

💚 Go to bed before 3 am.
🧡 Write in her new workbook.
💜 Read a chapter of the book she's reading.
🩵 Make her sister a bracelet.
