Being Disabled Sucks..

Being disabled sucks.

Randomly waking several times throughout the night due to "flare-ups" and bouts of extreme pain. Cluster migraines. Chest pain due to stress.

I hate it. It feels like I've lost all control of my body, and as I steadily get older this gets worse.

Fibromyalgia and neuropathy have stolen my youth. It hurts to watch life rushing by me.

I'm trying my best to manage my moods and try to find little things to brighten my mood. I push myself to work on my art, my writing.

Spending time playing the few video games that I enjoy.

We have to remember that use our disability aids when things get too overwhelming.

I use my cane. My walker. The copper lined gloves for when my hands begin hurting too badly.

It's okay to have low days. To feel like we're "running on empty"..

It's okay.

Take time for yourself and refill your cup.
