When you write lyrics to a song about PEM and desperately want to find melodies and hooks but you have PEM so can't pick up the guitar.

More need to know how bad it is for so many. Lives up ended yet few beneficial treatments. Prevention is key. Improve air quality, N95 and stay home if unwell. More money for research needed

Last night my son went to watch the GB basketball match and danced on camera like his life depended on it to win a basketball signed by the team.
Wish I could have been there.
FU ME.

Recently watched The Traitors New Zealand. It's like the traitors on the cheap. No helicopters or speedboats and the competitors have to drive themselves places. Still, not bad!

Worth repeating: there is NOT an ounce of exaggeration in this. This illness is out of the charts. #GreatestMEdicalScandal
My friends w/ ME are not okay. Every text or dm I brace myself for a new horror, from being gaslit to being unable to swallow to being encouraged to kill themselves to seizures from noise & light. The mild version is the end of life as you knew it. The most severe version is an unimaginable hell
I don’t think people could fathom living how people with my disease live. I haven’t seen the sky in 3 months. I only see it when I get wheeled out for appointments on a stretcher which is every 3-4 months. I have eaten the same 6 foods for almost 3 yrs now. EVERYTHING I do is in bed. This is MECFS.

It's 12 years today since I did drag, at work. I'm kind of gutted that no photos exist but so pleased that I did it. Looking back it played a small part in my much needed faith deconstruction. It was such a surreal experience but so much fun, even if the high heels were two sizes too small. 😂👠

I can’t wait for this cookbook! I’ve been talking with Rachel all along the way and I know the recipes are going to be so amazing. I just pre-ordered two copies so I can give one to my daughter. It would help Rachel if you pre-ordered a copy.

For those of us living on the edges of society, #pwME & other marginalised conditions), I’m feeling slightly less alone and slightly less in a minority of the ‘Missing In Action’ from life, as sadly & as expected, the cases of Long Covid / M.E. rise.

Read a Facebook post today which mentioned ME and memory loss. It struck a chord with me as my memory has been terrible recently. If you have ME, has your memory become really poor over the years? I get head tremors so sometimes wonder if it's linked to them!

I sometimes think that ME is as just as much about dealing with the mindf#@k that the condition and PEM places you in, as the physical symptoms. It feels like you can forget how bad it can get until it happens again. A fresh hell each time.

Thanks @talmandaniel.bsky.social for contributing to this in-depth article on parenting with #LongCovid #MECFS

The only reason this injustice is happening is due to decades of systemic neglect. Australia is still far behind UK, US & even NZ!

ME peeps...
If you accidentally found something that, legally, made you feel wonderfully ME free and energised for an hour or two without major PEM, despite being potentially risky and having possible longer term side effects, would you try it again?
