I Love The Colors!! I've Seen Scribble Art Where Its A Portrait Not Sure How They Do That But It's Pretty

good luck with a second cardiologist appointment. I have only done the nasa lean test but got a diagnosis of pots through it. the instructions tell you to avoid excess salt and water 12-24 hours beforehand.

don't do this but i will also avoid taking painkillers before going to a doctor so that i will be crabby and exhausted and sore because i look fine when i'm coping

Its weird I made the same post about purposely making my symptoms worse on Reddit and it got taken down. You're not really supposed to talk about that. Its understandable but idk how else to get my doctors to take me seriously. And thank you! I hope it goes well too apparently they're a really good doctor

TO ALL FELLOW CHRONICALLY ILL AND DISABLED PEOPLE

What would you like to see in artwork to help represent you? People with mobility aids? People that look like you? Give many any of your thoughts and ideas in the comments, my inbox, or my DMS

Just sending a message to say ‘hi’! And to say I totally get your frustration over “normal” lab results. All my labs have been normal and yet here I am, symptomatic! 🫠

Hello! Just because your lab results came back normal does NOT mean you are invalid and that there is nothing causing them.

I learned after going to the hospital yesterday (forgot I did that yesterday what fuck…) that I most definitely have POTS. I have slightly low sodium and heart palpitations. I have all the symptoms of it. When I treat my body like I have POTS it feels better

What I do to help:

The biggest fucking container of water CHUG IT

Salt, and I mean a lot

Compression socks are a gift from above

AND GET A TILT TEST DONE (I hope to do mine soon)

Can you believe I used to NEVER wear black? I only dressed in rainbows for 6 years. Then on day I decided to dress like this:

Growing up is crazy

Psst… HEY

If you are also queer, disabled, and/or have chronic pain, and wanna see art and other content about it, then feel free to follow my youtube ;))

I've been making shorts, and hopefully filming a full video when I have the energy!

POTS Life Hacks For Diffucult Mornings

We all know how important it is to stay hydrated, especially when chronically ill.

If you're anything like me, you wake up feeling awful. Keep a giant glass of water right next to where you sleep. Before getting out of bed, drink water for about 1 to 2 minutes. Bonus points if you use electrolyte drops.

Breakfast- a breakfast I love is oatmeal and salted butter toast. It gives me protien and some salt to start off my day

Having an extremely difficult morning? Don't be afraid to ask for help if it is available to you! There are days where my girlfriend makes me breakfast. You are NOT weak for asking for help. In fact, I think you're pretty brave.

I'm trying to create a more positive and content place for disabled and chronically ill people. I see so many negative posts about being chronically ill and they can really put me down. I wanna change that

I'd love to ask the question, what are you grateful for?

Now, I know this can be SO hard to answer especially when you're chronically ill. But I really want you to try and think of at least one thing. It could be something really small. Or even a list!

I'll go first: I'm grateful for my ability to create art, my mobility aids, and my chosen family.

YOUR TURN!

hello friends and oomfs i need some help

I'm short on rent and its due today!! (5/1/25) I am a disabled sex worker slowly working toward accessible employment and I really need help for this final month in my lease. I have 3 days until the late fees hit so please help me boost this and get the word out!! thank u for reading <3

I was so exhausted and has zero spoons left. Tookna three hour trip to snooze land. Probably shouldn't have taken that long of a nap, but you know what? I DESERVED THE DAMN NAP!!!! I might still be tire, but I'm feeling refreshed of spoons today.

If you need to rest go do it. No need to feel guilty about it

Guys.. I was able to take a short walk and go up the stairs easier. I think I might be cured from chronic illness 🤭
