A moment of support from a friend
I vented to my only remaining friend today that lots of people think I don‘t get better because I don’t want to and maybe I like doing this thing called “aggressive rest” for ten hours every day.
And she said: “Yeah, right. They should try doing that for thirty minutes and see if they like it.”
She doesn’t know much about my condition, but I’m glad to see that reasonable healthy people recognize that this is torture without knowing much about it.
Just wanted to say that resting is the hardest thing we can do, and we’re so strong for doing it ❤️ In case someone needed to hear.
