Hello. Last month, I got diagnosed with fibro. On Ash Wednesday of all days. Ah, the irony...
Anyway.
I know a tiny bit about fibro, but not a whole lot. This is strange territory to navigate, and I'm confused. I'm frustrated, and I am wanting to learn as MUCH as I can about this ... issue? Illness? I don't know what to call it, honestly. I don't want it to define me, but I also don't want to just treat it like it's "no big deal" and then find out the hard way that I'm doing myself more harm than good, you know?
So, a little bit about me: I'm in college. Right now, I'm working on finishing up my AA in Religious Studies/Philosophy. My hope is to become a creative writing teacher, but I can't seem to get past the brain fog right now. I have ADHD that I'm being treated for, and even with the treatment for that, the brain fog struggles are real. Also, I'm into photography (nature, specifically), reading, playing guitar, and trying to be a good human overall.
