Today is Severe M.E. Awareness day. A day that makes me feel such heavy grief, not only for what my life could have been like if I hadn’t got sick at 14, but for the millions of people who suffer around the world from this utterly devastating illness.
I had severe M.E. for several years as a teenager, and it put my entire life to a stop. I left school, and lay in bed for years, as friends went to college, and then uni, and went on to live their lives. I was completely bedbound, had a stairlift in the house, a commode next to my bed, and I was barely existing.
That’s the reality of Severe M.E.
It takes every single thing from you, and when you try and try to get better, the symptoms get worse and worse.
It is hell.
August 8th, marks the birthday of Sophia Mirza. She was the first person in the UK to have Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME) officially recorded as the cause of death.
Today honours those living with severe M.E. whom are living with disabling fatigue and a mariad of symptoms. Most are housebound, bedbound, and often living in complete darkness and silence, as they cannot even tolerate light or sound.
Please watch. Please share. This is ours - and so many others’ - reality. These stories deserve to be seen.

“I want to warn those who are working but barely getting by: do not ignore your symptoms, because you risk losing several levels of function. I pushed and ignored my symptoms to the point where I had nothing left. Pacing is so important”

"Symptoms made worse due to physical or cognitive exertion in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis & Chronic Fatigue Syndrome"
The unusual method I use to help encourage me to rest 5-7 hours per day
I find it challenging to rest 5-7 hours a day, so I reward myself with food (I don’t get to eat it till I’m lying down where I plan to rest).
This seems to work well for me.
It does take discipline not to put up weight so I count calories/kJs*. But I have managed to keep my BMI within 1 unit of 20 for the last 7 years so think I have it under control.
I like lying outside so don’t need to bring food with me to rest outside. But a lot of the time, it’s not suitable to be outside in Irish weather.
Definitely wouldn’t suit a lot of people, and I’m sure some people will point out their problems with it, but seems to work for me to get the all-important rest to help me have fairly steady energy levels and not deteriorate. What do you do to help encourage yourself to rest?

Let’s talk about the unofficial evaluation that can determine belief, treatment, or accommodations. What’s being measured is legibility in the eyes of the system you’re dealing with.

From @onelife_livedwell on IG:
There is a particular kind of exhaustion that comes from living in the space between knowing something has changed in your body and waiting for the world around you to find language for it. For many people with energy-limiting and fluctuating conditions, the diagnostic journey is not a straight line but a long and often disorienting passage through normal labs, partial explanations, referrals, waiting rooms, symptom trackers, and includes self-doubt that begins to gather when your daily life no longer matches what the medical record can easily show. This is part of what people mean by the diagnostic odyssey, which is not just the search for a diagnosis, but also the invisible labor of translating patterns, crashes, thresholds, recovery time, brain fog, dizziness, pain, and lost capacity into a system that often recognizes things more easily when they are stable and measurable by existing processes. If this is where you are, or where someone you love is, I hope this phrase gives you a small place to stand and is a reminder that the journey has a name
From @onelife_livedwell on IG:
The invisible illness tax is what happens when system limitations impact the people it serves. It falls disproportionately on people with conditions that have no definite biomarker or diagnostic test, are frequently misattributed to psychological causes, involve fluctuating symptoms and affect populations underrepresented in clinical research. The invisible illness tax is real, but so is the growing body of research, education, and education working to reform it.
