When you live with EDS, MCAS, POTS or any of the several forms of neurodiversity its so important never to cease experimenting with what triggers or supports you best as your particular mix of ideal exposures and conditions is likely to be quite different to the next person's. Take, for instance, the effects of the sun...

Is limbic retraining any use for structural chronic pain such as EDS? (Spoiler: yes!)

Who or what are you holding yourself together for?

How do you measure who you are, what makes you feel core-strong regardless of what else is going on, and how does this manifest in your physical health? Boy this feels like such a big post, too much in it to summarise so dive in if you are prepared to ask these questions with me.

Syndromes

Suddenly, people like me, on the long-haul to solo self-recovery from "mystery" illnesses find we are not all alone in here.
