hey my chronically ill pals!

i just wanna remind all of you that resting is NOT a waste of time!!! lying in bed/watching movies/sleeping/whatever you do to rest is not a waste of time!!!! resting is just as integral to managing your symptoms as taking your medication!!!  you are not “doing nothing” when you’re resting - you’re actively working to manage your symptoms and take care of your health!!!  don’t feel guilty for resting - it’s necessary and good!!! xoxo
