Spoons... (Patreon)

I was going to work today into the postcard for my Patreons but i am out of spoons and i am in a lot of pain... so I’ll probably try to conjure dinner and call it a day... I’ll try tomorrow

I know there’s a lot of new people here and some may be unaware to the fact that i struggle with chronic pain due to fibromyalgia. This just means it’s harder for me to do a lot of stuff in one day, because i will inevitably ran out of stamina and my body will let me know... with pain!

So, every day i wake up with a set of spoons. They will vary from day to day, but i have a limited amount of stamina i can use to do all my activities. That’s why i need to plan accordingly. Cause, some activities may only take one spoon, while others will take more. The spoons required for each activity varies depends on how far the illness is pushing me and the particular day (cold days are specially bad for me). Something that only requires one spoon today may require three next week bcs of a cold!

So yeah! I need to listen to my body or I’ll probably won’t be able to get up from bed tomorrow. But don’t worry I’ve been living with this all my life and i know i am capable of delivering 🥰 i just wanna be transparent on why sometimes i will post three times in a row and then two days later i won’t appear 😅 it’s the spoons
