2 reactions Hi, my name is Clovermoon. I'm here because I spent years supporting others while silently struggling myself. I ignored the cycles of my body, the wisdom of the moon, and the deep connection between the two—just like the professionals did. That silence led to pain, misdiagnosis, and burnout. Now I write to share what I’ve learned: that PMDD, perimenopause, chronic illness, and emotional overwhelm aren’t just medical issues—they’re signals, patterns, and sacred rhythms worth honoring. I’m a wife, mother, and advocate for my autistic daughter—and for my husband, a veteran with PTSD and TBI who pulled himself out of the fire and became an advocate for others. Together, we’ve learned that love is medicine, and healing is possible when you stop hiding your truth.

Medications are vital for people with MS to live their best lives. Learn about the different types of MS meds from Dr. Carolyn Bevan (neurology, Northwestern Medicine & Chicago VA MS center), and how to access meds through the VA plus how to work with your doctor to find the best fit for you.

"I no longer take for granted all of the things that my body enabled me to do. It would take something away from me, but then it would eventually give most of it back. I’ve always been able to see until I wasn’t. Then it was returned, and I was so grateful for it! Grateful for every sweet little moment with my kids that I got to witness. Grateful even for the ability to drive again after the feeling returned to my legs. Grateful also for the Department of Veterans Affairs. Somehow life was all the more precious after the experience."

My grandfather flew Lancasters for the RAF in WW2. I was complimenting my waitress to her manager the other day. He had just retired from the military and was now running this restaurant. My compliment about my waitress was that she was really aware of her tables because she already had “her head on a swivel.”
His eyes narrowed sharply as he looked at me as I looked back at him. Our eyes had a very intense conversation. What do you think the conversation was about. #CPTSD #Veterans #customerservice #PTSD
