the cost of a good weekend (chronic illness recovery) 🌱

The "hidden side of yes" is a reality many of us live with, but few see. This past weekend was full of joy, celebrating my friend’s hen's weekend. It was beautiful, bright, and exactly what she wanted, but it came with a price. Living with chronic illness often means that for every "high", there is a corresponding "low". In this video, I’m sharing the quiet, slow recovery from a significant crash. There is so much negativity and stigma surrounding young people living with chronic illness, but I wanted to show the ordinary truth of it. You aren’t lazy for needing to rest; you are simply taking care of the only body you have. If you’re currently under a blanket or in a flare-up, I hope this video makes you feel less alone. 💙 Timestamps: 0:00 - intro 0:40 - the hen's weekend 2:25 - the crash & making breakfast 3:03 - disclaimer 3:30 - what a flare-up can look like 4:32 - my coping strategies 4:52 - making dinner 5:33 - the next day & cozy hobbies 6:05 - making lunch & snack options 8:08 - junk journal with me! 9:14 - my honest thoughts on chronic illness 10:45 - more junk journalling 13:15 - early bedtime & final thoughts 13:55 - outro Connect with me: Instagram:   / ordinary_kind   #chronicillness #slowvlog #spoonielife #recovery #ordinarykind
