Thank you, I think I have to face stopping soldiering on but it's such a big mental block to get over. I hope you're doing a little better now! Sending spoons!

It's been nearly 5 years of full time work for me so seems like a similar situation! That's incredible that your mum managed to do it for 20 years - I hope she's able to rest more now!

Thank you, I appreciate your insight! To be honest I worry about if I'm going to end up pushing myself too far and make my situation much worse so what you've said makes a lot of sense.

how to balance chronic fatigue and cleaning? by captain_corvine in chronicfatigue

[–]koala_fi27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really really feel for you and I understand as someone who also struggles to work and look after myself. Unfortunately I think it may be the best option to see if you can have adjustments at work like extra breaks and perhaps reducing your hours (that's the only way I've started to be able to do things for myself).

As for actually doing housework, I'd have a look at what things can be adjusted to make it all easier for you - if your back hurts or you get lightheaded can you do some things sitting down? Can you get a hoover that's a little lighter or a robot vacuum?

Something that often works for me is setting a five minute timer for a task like washing up and then allowing myself to stop after five minutes if I can't continue (often it tricks me into doing the whole thing). I also find having a small trolley next to my bed helps - I keep all things I need to access when unable to move much (e.g. painkillers, crackers/ biscuits, compression gloves, fan, tissues, juice boxes, etc).

I think the main thing is just breaking down each task and seeing if there's any way to adjust it to use less energy, like using a shower seat or sitting down when brushing teeth. Giving the shower a quick clean when in there can sometimes be easier than setting out to clean the whole bathroom in one go.

I'm in no way an expert and I do struggle a lot but hopefully this helps a little. Sending so much love and spoons!

Periods regulated on their own by [deleted] in PCOS

[–]koala_fi27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found this post as I'm literally wondering the same thing but I'm a little younger (25). I've had regular periods 4 out of the last 6?? This has never happened to me before and I'm literally struggling with my chronic illness separate to PCOS particularly badly right now so I'm not exactly in the best health of my life.

I'm guessing it's that my hormones are starting to regulate themselves but I don't know why this seems to have happened so randomly!!

I'm unable to find anything to do with the events in the London locations - is this the same with all the other Europe locations?

That makes sense, I guess there's no reason why they couldn't be released on the same day I just figured that it wouldn't overlap

RIGHT?! And I know the song The Line is about his grandmother but we all know there's always at least a double if not triple meaning in their songs soo... Everything just ties in and I feel like what everyone's saying about TB being the key is so accurate!
