Dear people who don't understand chronic illness/invisible disabilities - * believe me when I say I'm too exhausted to absorb what you are saying or discuss something complex* believe me when I say I'm too tired to put away groceries or walk to something a block away * understand that things that take you trivial amounts of energy can be exhausting for me* BELIEVE ME#disability #fibromyalgia

I've had this happen for things that I normally wouldn't even find difficult - at times I'm completely unable to identify what triggered it for a specific task. #ADHD #neurodiversity #ExecutiveFunction

@Wolven Interesting - I hadn't thought of that before. For me, it's less not feeling safe and more not feeling impelled, iykwim. There are things where my immediate reaction is to post to Mastodon and others where my urge is to post someplace else (any of several choices). Over time I've decided I'm ok with that. I like having a place with more info and less drama, since I have places for the emotional stuff. Different people, different needs.
