Migraine flare?
To anyone with chronic migraines besides myself: do you get flares so bad you can’t walk due to the pain, your entire body hurts, or just me? #chronicmigraine #flare

“You’re so lucky! I wish I could stay in bed all day!
Disabled and chronically ill folks do not enjoy being forced to give up the things they love to spend their days in bed. #ChronicIllness #chronicillnessawareness #chronicillnesswarrior #chronicillnesslife #chronicillnesscommunity #ChronicPain #chronicpainawareness #Chronicpainsucks #chronicpainlife #ChronicPainRelief #chronicmigraine #ChronicFatigue #ChronicFatigueSyndrome #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis #Fibromyalgia #fibrofighter #fibrowarrior #fibroflare #Flareup #flareupssuck #bedbound #housebound #AmbulatoryWheelchairUser

Need advice #chronicmigraine
I need advice/experience! My neuro wants to start me on Ajovy to help with migraine, Propanolol hasn’t done the trick the last 7 weeks.
I also have Fibromyagia, TMJ, depression and anxiety.
I hate the thought of an injection, but the migraines are really taking a tole

New Episode Alert! Am I Actually Neurodivergent? 🤔
There’s a joke somewhere about four neurodivergent people walking into a recording booth and attempting to focus on the topic at hand. In this episode, Ashley (hi 👋) is joined by @camararollin, @jwertman, and @skyeg as they dive into the wide spectrum of neurodiversity, imposter syndrome in relation to identifying as neurodivergent, and how neurodivergence can often be misunderstood by the people who are meant to be the most helpful in supporting those individuals — namely doctors and educators. Additionally, find out how stacking diagnoses can feel like Pokémon evolutions (and of course, stick around to hear our favorite ones!).

I feel like curling into a ball and crying #Fibromyalgia #TemporomandibularJointDisorders #chronicmigraine
It hurts and I’m so tired. I have to dog sit but the dogs are killing me. It is making me so miserable. I want to leave but the dogs want to be near me at all times.
I have nothing for relief. The dogs want to be all over me. I can’t take it. I don’t get irritated like this when I work. This is the first time I have felt like this.
I feel like crying and just laying down and locking myself away from them. I want to just not be in pain. I want to not be here. I hate how I can’t have anything without pain anymore. I just hate everything right now.
