Physical disability, chronic pain, and mental illness are part of my lore, not my limit.
I rebuild from glitches, myths, and moonlight.
This is just me. Carri.

Oh ick! 😂

My resilience has been tested far, far beyond what I imagined I am capable of. The hits to my mental health have been brutal.

IT IS A LOT.

So if you're curious or interested in how a neuro condition can ruin your life, check out @carriwithfnd.bsky.social.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

I want to educate others about Functional Neurological Disorder and advocate for those living with it. Because the reality is that losing my ability to walk fucked me up right good. 😕 Then with all the other symptoms including seizures and malnutrition...

The thought has crossed my mind that by creating a second account for my experience with FND, I am trying to erase my disability to make my existence more palatable for others. (Isn't internalized ableism a bitch?)

Maybe. I'm still adjusting to this massive shift myself.

My main here will be writing, music, observations nobody cares about, spooky stuff, Heathenism, and whatever strikes my fancy. Probably some shit posts in there too.

But you don't have to worry about photos or in-depth medical discussions on this one.

UNLESS THEY CHANGE ME INTO A CYBORG.

I'm glad it was you! 😂
At least I can go follow now, haha.

I made that mistake a couple months ago myself. 😂 I had no idea I would be watching so many... 😝

Hail!

I consider anyone who's certified in her L1 certs advanced, hehe. As long as you are enjoying the process, who cares how long it takes! 😊

That is some utter BS. 🤬 I'm sure this will start cropping up more often; I hope the artists will stand firm like Hout did.

Can confirm, Alberta is freaking out. 🙄 I hate that I live here.

@allyann.bsky.social Would you consider adding FND (Functional Neurological Disorder) to the keywords? I guess it would be #fnd then?

That must have been a really scary experience at 13. The idea of it is still really hard for me to process; I can only imagine how it was for you. 🖤

This is the last ditch effort to see if I can manage my needed intake just with the supplement drinks. If I don't start gaining,then it's likely a tube. 😢

I had an excellent handle on anatomy from yoga trainings that focused on biomechanics.

Most of it's gone from all my brain fog now. 🙄
