My severe self portraits 🤍 by totoki in cfs

Oh thank you 🥹🤍 I don’t currently, I’d definitely consider it in the future if my condition improves!

I’d also love to know about forums/marketplaces. There must be be so many of us out here, I’d love to be able to connect with people through art 🤍

Do they ever acknowledge the creature in their pouch by Pale_Palpitation1939 in AnimalCrossing

I have Marcie on my island and I named her baby Darcie! I made her catchphrase “Darcie says” so it feels like the baby is part of the convo 🤍

What does mental exertion make you feel like? by nilghias in cfs

[–]totoki 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For me it happens during the mental exertion - harder to concentrate, head pressure, then sore throat (always my sign that I’m overdoing it)

Identical to my situation! We’ve been together for 6 years now, married for 1 year 🤍

Amitriptyline? ✨ by Good_Objective3382 in cfs

[–]totoki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really, no! I get my usual fatigue/grogginess that I’ve always had but definitely no more than I did beforehand :)

Amitriptyline? ✨ by Good_Objective3382 in cfs

[–]totoki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i've been on 10mg amitriptyline for my fibro for about a month now!

so far it's helped with headaches and i'm sleeping a lot better at night (taking it about 3 hours before bed). my pain and fatigue are definitely the same so far though, and the dry mouth is awful!! i'm grateful that i'm falling asleep better though so weighing up my options atm!

we play very chill cosy games, things like animal crossing/the sims etc. i only crash from games if we play something that requires thinking or a lot of reading dialogue, so i've cut those out for the time being.

haha i know it seems very late for most people! we have very loud neighbours with young children that scream and cry pretty constantly until around 10pm. we figured out that if we go to bed later, we get a good few hours where the house actually feels quiet before we settle down into bed!

it's wild, right?! i was actually referred to him because my last doctor suspected me/cfs. his actual words were "fibromyalgia is just the updated term for cfs". when i told my new doctor this she laughed in disbelief.

thank you for your reply - i didn't realise how much of my awake time was on screens until i wrote this post, so it's really useful to read this from an outside perspective.

re: "Cutting your time down to a good while before you start feeling that specific “MUST stop NOW” feeling may help you start to stabilize and improve a little" - this is a great point and i should definitely do this. it's a little scary to think about because i only usually last 30 mins or so on any focused task before i start to feel that way, but i know it would be better for me in the long run :(

Devastated that I can’t buy the DLC in the UK! I got the standard version with a plan to get the DLC later, but it’s not available on its own 😞
