People are so weird about anything that makes you high to the point of wanting the chronically ill to suffer more. “Just take OTC painkillers 🙄”

Many of us do. Do you know how damaging that is to the body? To take every damn day, round the clock? Ever think that’s why many spoonies have to have a strategy, constantly rotating drugs?

It’s literally not the end of the world if a spoonie needs to consume cannabis in order to more effectively manage pain and other symptoms (weed SAVES my ass from persistent daily nausea. I wouldn’t be able to eat otherwise).

It’s especially weird when people are anti-any-pain-med-that-has-a-high when they’re guzzling caffeine drinks. They really can’t pretend it’s out of concern and “worrying about the dangers of addiction.” Quit coffee, then, Susan! And get back to me in a week, tell me how you feel.

One of my favorite ways to foster a life of peace is appreciate the “just fine.” the absence of bad can actually be good! it’s wonderful to have the medium to keep us regulated and neutral at times; it’s what makes emotions a spectrum. The neutral is m a gift, it soothes us from the intensity that life sometimes imposes. Take some time to appreciate the “just fine” in your day today. I love you.

thr funniest part of therapy to me is when you first come in and you're exchanging niceties and they say "hello! how are you" and you say "im fine how are you :)" and then 30 seconds later they put on their therapist voice and say "so how are you doing?" and you go well lisa. believe it or not im doing Bad

my favorite trope is when someone believes they’re hard to love and someone who loves them like it’s breathing.

Like yeah, I'll never have a pain-free day in the future. I will experience pain every day for the rest of my life. But! I also will laugh with my family. I will create beautiful things. I will share beautiful moments with my partner. I will experience the bands that I love releasing new music. Things will get worse and maybe get better and it really sucks that I hurt so much but there is still so much good waiting for me. And I'm really glad that I'm still here to see it.
