Doom scrolling #shorts #mentalhealth #chronicillness #invisibleillness

No, not doom. A blessing, a miracle, a lifeline. A source for laughter, learning, , entertainment. A provable method to get through the really bad moments, days, nights when you have to lie in bed anyway.
A BIG plus is I found your site.
I'm so happy I'm here right now.
Though the tears leak as they always do when another human says they "get it".
I cry for myself and you and all who are here with me.
Thank you. 💙

Yeah, my fatigue is hitting today. But I did some things, I did manage to cook, so I‘m still proud of myself. Thank you for always appearing on my timeline, from one fatigued person to another

[OLBALIFEEEE]

I cleaned my room today. I'm very proud of myself.

[maggiescilia]

Me for days and days before and after my medical check ups.
Thanks for sharing what we can't quite express

🎯😞 I feel like I’ve wasted two days of my life… and tomorrow isn’t looking good either.. thank goodness for my sweet dog that forces me to move a bit 😢

I had my 5th surgery in under two years this last week, and came across your channel while doom scrolling to distract from the pain. Everything you post is so on point. I’m sorry so many of us share these experiences.

Omg thats literally me until my family yells at me to "stop being lazy and get out of bed"

[katherynhoward]

This has been me the past couple days. When I've attempted to do the stuff I needed to do, I just stare at it.

[sleepieste]

that hit fucking hard. damn. physically i’ve been doing nothing but work, which means standing, walking and carrying stuff.

My fatigue hit me like bus nd I did this all day

I set timers to help remind me of when to stop and just view the world around me. It helps to enjoy the scrolling but to also just enjoy the nothing around me when it's all out of my control. This helps me feel like I'm in control.

Me right now after trying to pack for 30 min cause I’m moving. All I did was sort shit into piles from my closet, but it’s something anyway.

All the time 😅 sending all the love to you!!!

Man this is so true.
I've been mostly bed ridden for 1.2 years bc long COVID and the scrolling is all I can do when I feel the fatigue so bad that I can barely lift my water

[rez-.-]

Currently writhing in pain since my joints and muscles LOVE to fuck with me.

"Youre so *lazy.* Thats why you're *depressed."*

Depressed? Oh I thought I WAS SICK. Maybe you forgot. . That statement was quite telling.

[VE.creations]

Felt, girl, felt!! This happens a lot

[J.J.DoeArt]

My ADHD paralysis is trying to cave the door in lol

[Taylor_Dog]

Oof. I do this and then I beat myself up about it. It’s helpful to hear you acknowledge why I do it - I’m just too fatigued to do anything else! Have to doom scroll recharge before doing the next thing. Makes it not feel like a personal failure.

[MeghanWaring]

Every fucking day. Four hours of doom scrolling before I can even pretend I'm going to get up.
