“I get sick of people telling me what not to do, and then not telling me what to do.” No one likes to hear they are doing something wrong.

Sometimes, it can be a thing of just feeling a bit foolish; like someone pointing out you are pulling on a door with a sign saying, “push.” Other times, it can be downright demoralizing, leaving the person wishing they had never tried in the first place.

I have been on the giving and receiving end of the latter. I have had to learn how to sort through the giving part as a tool to do better the next time.

Learning to Look at My Chronic Illness Scars With Love
I looked at my body. My fingers methodically tracing the jagged scars on my soft chest. The healed and blanched scar that snakes down the length of my taut belly. They say these are my warrior scars, part of the tapestry of my life. All I can do is say I’m sorry … to the little kid that was born with a perfect child’s body, the one that played in the trees like a spider monkey, built forts of billowing white sheets made for a princess with red auburn curly hair and had tea parties with Bear. She had no idea there was a monster, a thing awaiting inside of her. Quietly given to her by her unknowing parents, a gift of everlasting physical and emotional pain on par with any disaster imagined.

When Chronic Illness Takes Your Hobbies Away
I’m bored as I write this, and I hate boredom. I don’t enjoy feeling like I have nothing to do, or nothing meaningful to do. Not even a little bit. A trend that I’ve noticed in myself is when I’m bored, I very much desire to play video games. I think it originates in my high school and college years; that’s what I usually did when I was bored. But chronic illness means I can’t play video games anymore, so it’s harder to flee boredom.

What You Can Ask to Help a Friend Struggling With Mental Illness
I had a conversation with some good friends the other day about how it can be hard to ask people who are struggling how they are doing, more than just a short, “How ya doin? Good,” exchange, at least. Generally, what I have found is many people, perhaps even the majority, wish they could better care for others. But often we are finding ourselves in an awkward middle-ground of wanting to help, but unsure of how to ask for specifics of what we can help with.

What Michael J. Fox Taught Me About Parenting With Chronic Illness
I am married to a “Back to the Future” movie fan. We have a gigantic movie poster in our basement with Marty McFly, time machines in various corners of the house, pictures of us in front of replicas of time machines and yes, we have even been to the location of the “Back to the Future” house in LA and the Twin Pines Mall.

3 Things I Wish the Medical Staff Understood During My Hospitalization
Just over 10 years ago, I developed Bickerstaff brainstem encephalitis (BBE), and was in a coma for six weeks and hospitalized for 18 months. The illness resulted in an acquired brain injury (ABI) which caused a multitude of physical, mental and emotional issues that confused me, puzzled doctors and frustrated nurses and care aides. As a result, I experienced countless moments of fear, isolation, loneliness, confusion, depression and anxiety. I believe many of these situations could have been alleviated if hospital staff were better prepared. These are the three main areas where health workers’ lack of knowledge and understanding impacted my care:

7 Tips for Coping With Post-COVID Symptoms From Someone With Chronic Illness
My name is Julie Farkas. I’m the admin for the multiple autoimmune syndrome group at the Autoimmune Registry, and I want to give you some hard-earned advice on how to manage your post-COVID world. I’ve had multiple sclerosis since the 1980s, but wasn’t diagnosed until 2001. Because medical research is light years ahead of the research in the 1980s, I don’t think it will take that long to unravel the mysteries of post-COVID disorders. But until then, you may find it difficult to manage all the physical, mental and social problems you will encounter. So here are my observations and advice for you as you travel on the long road back to wellness.

How to Plan a Mental Health Recovery Day for National Stress Awareness Month
This National Stress Awareness Month, I think about how I feel stress in my body, a heaviness dragging down my hips and pressure inside my forehead. Often, it comes out as an uptick in my anxiety.  A few weeks ago, I sat at my desk, lungs squeezed inside my chest. When the stress became overwhelming, my husband came up with the idea to organize a Mental Health Recovery Day. I wanted to combine different activities that have helped me in therapy groups, along with ways to relax. For Mental Health Recovery Day, I tried to create my own structured day of self-care. I hoped that dedicating time would help me deal better with my anxiety and stress. I had reached the point of feeling so drained that I thought I needed to try something new.

When Chronic Illness Leaves You Mourning Your 'Before' Self
When talking to people who developed a chronic illness later in life, (by this, I mean they didn’t grow up with it) they will often describe a “before” and an “after.” There is usually a point in time, or an event, that can be identified as the moment where their life changed. People won’t necessarily realize that in the moment, but instead can see it when looking back and reflecting. Sometimes it involves an accident or a viral illness, sometimes that moment is when a doctor gave a shocking diagnosis or, for some people, it is an emotional trauma they lived through.

What also came to light, was that Canada has higher Anti-Asian hate crimes per capita than the US, despite Canada always touting itself as an accepting, pluralistic country, free of the intensity of racism faced by our neighbours to the south.

How This Controversial Comic Can Actually Promote Better Mental Health
I’ve been following the Instagram account @pet_foolery for a while. Their account is comprised of cute comics of little animals that usually have humor or a positive message, and for me it’s been an uplifting account to follow. However, one of their recent posts led to a lot of controversy in the comment section due to whether the message was positive, realistic or downright invalidating and dismissive. I personally think the comic in question is a great message to anyone with a mental health disorder and found myself relating heavily.
