Finding some hope, then feeling like we've lost it.
Feeling better, then feeling worse again.
We need to keep picking ourselves up more times than we fall down.

When I was sick with Long Covid I spent a lot of time fighting against the illness, acceptance, myself.
I was holding onto a lot of stuff. And being kinder to myself was important. To stop fighting and accept myself in that moment. In that moment- not forever!!

Recovery IS possible - people are recovering. But it's far from easy - in fact it's by far the hardest thing I've ever done.
I share my journey (& others) because I know how important it is to know that it's possible when you're in those low moments.

With something like Long Covid or ME/CFS, we often find ourselves with a lot of heavy and uncomfortable emotions.
Crying can be a great way of releasing that pressure.
It helps to regulate our nervous system, rebalance hormones and also helps us to release toxins from the body!
