My bed is a shrine to stillness, to rest, to warmth, to intimacy, to love, to relaxation. In this space, I practice rituals of devotion. Here, I set down my worries. I create art. I sit with my pain. I share in pleasure. I say prayers in every action and every inaction. I honor my bedridden body in all of its glory. My disabled body is a temple, I am a humble priest. I will tend to it dutifully— by doing nothing.

crosswords! Word searchs! Jigsaws! Logic! Sudoku!

Like. I mean for like years. I dissociated through so much pain (physical and mental) and now i literally can’t anymore.

I internalized the idea that if I got worse it’d be fine because I’d get the help I need and now. I get about a quarter of the help I need because I can’t magically never be terrified by the idea of communicating.

And now I’m severe M.E. and I can’t get better by continuing to ignore either like people told me too.

Any advice for not being ashamed/disbelieving (for lack of better word) your own needs?
