3: As long as I can remember!  My earliest memories of issues with chronic pain and fatigue are from around puberty.  Everyone said it was because I was having growth spurts, but it never went away.

4: Cookies.  Eating comfort foods is a big coping mechanism for me, and I’ve never been able to cut sugary baked goods out of my diet because of it.

8: I’m involved in trans and/or non-binary activism and other things that are important to me are autism, fighting police brutality, accessible health care, and food security for everyone.

11: Fruit Ninja!  I just discovered this.  It’s about the only thing I can do when I’m nearly run out of spoons.

17: Yellow Submarine.  It also gets other songs out of my head.

23: Pizza!  I love pizza so much.  I even worked at a pizza restaurant and ate it every day for over a year and still love it.  My favorite is broccoli pizza with ranch sauce (instead of the usual pizza sauce).

30: Yes!

#6,What is your favorite distraction while you’re in pain?

Flash games, hahah. I know it’s dumb but they require attention.

9.Who has been your biggest supporter through out being a spoonie?

Emotionally....My kids, C. Financially, the rest of my family.

12, What are 3 unusual facts about yourself (again not spoonie related) ?

I do a mean Cher impression. I can sneer so intensely it puts Billy Idol to shame. I love horror.

19, If you’re reading a book right now, what are you reading?

Johannes Cabal The Detective <3

22, Who are a couple of your role models (real or fictional)?

I have so many role models. I still want to be Henry Rollins when I grow up. And I’m way grown up. I have too many to list honestly. 

30. Are you someone another spoonie can randomly message or talk to?
