Today’s BREAKING NEWS: If my caretaker got a hearing aide it would GREATLY UNDOUBTEDLY ABSOLUTELY help my #MECFS #LongCovid 🙉⚡️💥 #pwME are in more pain than u can see. My stimuli sensitivities are the worst they’ve ever been. This is truly boredom at its silliest. Thankfully, the world isn’t on fire.

Both my middle finger nails grow markedly faster than the others. File under “Things You Notice When Bed/Homebound” #MECFS #BelieveME #LongCovid #pwME

Is it the ADHD? Is it the IQ? Is it the brain fog from #MECFS and/or #IBD? Is it the weed? (Did I smoke weed…?) Is it the #CPTSD? Is it the spoons? Is it the pace points? 😵‍💫 It’s #MECFS #LongCovid #BelieveME #pwME

Reminding myself to find the #MicroJoys in this isolated world I live in *atm.* Can’t open my shutters during the day as of 3 months ago. 💔🙈 I’ve worshipped the ☀️🌞 since birth. (CA Or Bust!) Happy to have caught this years jasmine when I peaked outside today 👀☺️🥰😊 #MECFS #LongCovid #pwME #BelieveME

Since my light sensitivity has skyrocketed over the last few months I have had the (soft/warm) lights on earlier in the day, which charges glow pup enough to work ($20 knock-off?)🤪 With #MECFS #LongCovid we have to find the #MicroJoys wherever we can. 🌻 #pwME #BelieveME What gives you warm fuzzies?!

Feels like a lifetime ago that I was almost never seen without lipstick. Found my stash today. While I’d like to wear them “just for fun” it’s not possible bc it will 100% end up on my bed linens when I plop in and out of exhaustion. My lips miss you all! #MECFS #LongCovid #pwME #BelieveME

One of the most devastating interpersonal side effects of #MECFS #LongCovid #BelieveME #pwME #IRememberME It cuts every time one of these interactions happens. I don’t know how we’re supposed to compel our fellow Americans into listening to our shared experiences as a disabled community. #SOSMECFS

Poignant image of MLK Jr on this historical day. ‘Overcome’ is a complicated concept while living with #MECFS and #LongCovid I use it as something to work towards as this illness feels as though we are not actually LIVING but merely existing within purgatory. S.O.S. #BelieveME #pwME

Tonight I have no idea if I will get dinner bc my caretaker has ghosted me bc upset I didn’t share I ordered a fridge. I lay in bed as I keep watch on the open slit in my doorway to view the kitchen counter that she sets my bowl on. 👀 Dinner or no dinner tonight? #MECFS #LongCovid #BelieveME #pwME
