I’ve lived with chronic fatigue for nearly five years. And I still can’t stop myself from crashing and burning 😢
This (referenced post) is probably the best post of all time.
Okay, so this is terrifying. Not only do the ADHD meds help with my ADHD, but they’re the only thing that permit me to function at all, as I live with crippling chronic fatigue… and I have zero support. JFC.

Did I mention that @stwater is yet another WC showning signs of cracking. Concerns are growing that dividend payments aren't been covered by earnings or cash flow, ie they're using debt, & interest payments on that debt also can't be covered by earnings. House of cards.

When I struggle: “Why am I so bad at this?” When I succeed: “Doesn't count—too easy.”
some healthcare providers: "You need to self-advocate!" patient/client: *advocates for themselves* some healthcare providers: *documents in records - "Patient/client is being difficult / refuses to engage in services / not invested / treatment non-compliant / lacks commitment*
My sister: frequently RTs content bemoaning the lack of help or support for people with disabilities. Also my sister: provides literally no help or support to her own sister who, for legal purposes, is disabled and has literally no support at all.
I thought today was the day. When everything aligned: my energy levels, my concentration and - tbh - a touch of desperation. I was going to be able to complete the Very Important Paperwork. Now all I can hear is a chainsaw pulsing on the property next door 😠🤬

Really stressed because a theatre won't make Reasonable Adjustments for disability. Just because they have an existing, standard policy, does that mean they can't make reasonable adjustments to that policy? @DLAinfo @scope @ThangamMP @Rethink_ @CitizensAdvice
@DLAinfo @scope @ThangamMP @Rethink_ @CitizensAdvice I have made Reasonable Adjustment requests and they keep quoting their pre-existing policies back at me. I need them to make adjustments to their existing policies for me as a disabled person - that's the whole point of a Reasonable "Adjustment" request, no?

People who complain that Mental Health Twitter is too negative about healthcare provision dont understand how dangerous it is to feel we are the only ones treated with disdain and indifference. This feeling gets inside us and re-traumatizes us unless we can see it as more global.
Shit life syndrome is by far the biggest determinant of ill-health. We all need decent jobs, diets, a living income, green space, shelter, security, friends, clean air, purpose & kindness. If we focus on these, the economy & NHS will thrive. If we don't, chronic illness will win
“You are not alone” rings terribly hollow when many people just are, facing the same broad diagnosis. When even those who aren’t alone often have people around them who can’t emotionally and materially buffer the impact of disease and disability.
Also the lengthy illnesses, chronic conditions, and resulting disability that don’t get the profile cancer does. Now is a devastating time to experience sickness and disability. It can be financially and occupationally ruinous. It can break families. Better provisions are needed.
Someone is diagnosed with cancer every 90 seconds, in the UK. I can only wish them all a level of care even approaching what can be offered to the Royals. I hope they don’t experience the battles with work, finances, and social care that so many do when treatment is prolonged.
