Just because we can’t be on the streets doesn’t mean we’re invisible. Take part in online actions if you can. #ME #Disabled #BenefitCuts

When you write lyrics to a song about PEM and desperately want to find melodies and hooks but you have PEM so can't pick up the guitar.

More need to know how bad it is for so many. Lives up ended yet few beneficial treatments. Prevention is key. Improve air quality, N95 and stay home if unwell. More money for research needed

Last night my son went to watch the GB basketball match and danced on camera like his life depended on it to win a basketball signed by the team. Wish I could have been there. FU ME.

It's 12 years today since I did drag, at work. I'm kind of gutted that no photos exist but so pleased that I did it. Looking back it played a small part in my much needed faith deconstruction. It was such a surreal experience but so much fun, even if the high heels were two sizes too small. 😂👠

Read a Facebook post today which mentioned ME and memory loss. It struck a chord with me as my memory has been terrible recently. If you have ME, has your memory become really poor over the years? I get head tremors so sometimes wonder if it's linked to them!

There is a cartoon image of a boy dancing in the top left, and in the bottom right is Humpty Dumpty (basically an egg in clothes) looking broken and exhausted. 

The caption says “People with PEM, dashing and crashing”

I sometimes think that ME is as just as much about dealing with the mindf#@k that the condition and PEM places you in, as the physical symptoms. It feels like you can forget how bad it can get until it happens again. A fresh hell each time.

ME peeps... If you accidentally found something that, legally, made you feel wonderfully ME free and energised for an hour or two without major PEM, despite being potentially risky and having possible longer term side effects, would you try it again?

“[Riley’s] words aren’t just read by patients who may read it and second guess their need to rest and pace, but by carers and family who could then go on to push the patient to overexert and decline.”

Some people have asked why I’m still on X. I’ve thought a lot about it and what’s the right thing to do as a journalist. Currently, I’m staying because many marginalised people - especially disabled people - rely on the platform and I can’t do my job well shutting that out. 1/4
