Something a lot of my Mighty friends and I often talk about is how the different lives we lead make us savor things more than “normal” people.

A shower, something most people do without thinking each day. It has been years since I was able to take a full shower. A luxury I truly cannot afford, but something I would savor so much.

Hot water washing off and away the struggles of life, solving all of life’s problems with the steam making the rest of the world seem far away.

Why I Have to Keep My Chronic Illness a Secret to Keep My Career
Before my identity was intrinsically intertwined with my (sometimes visible) invisible illness, I identified first and foremost as a performer and singer. I started at a very young age and it became my dream to perform as my career. Long story short, my dream is in the process of coming true after working hard for many years through university and postgraduate study.

How To Avoid Getting Distracted While Driving And Why It’s Important
Distracted driving has become a serious concern in recent years. It’s estimated that 10% of all fatal accidents are caused by distracted drivers.

That’s why it is important for everyone who drives (or rides in cars) to make sure they understand what is involved with being a safe driver and avoid distractions when behind the wheel or in their seats instead of riding shotgun.

The Infinite Benefits of Including Students With Disabilities
I was in my daughter’s middle school for a meeting with some of her teachers. As I was walking down a hallway with a few of them they stated, “Look, there is Yassy! She is cycling away. We hear she loves to go in that room and ride the bike for the whole gym class. She is in great shape.”  I looked in the room and there weren’t many other kids in there. It was new, with a glass wall, so I saw her and took this photo. It is blurry because I was trying to be quick, so as not to distract her.

Different Types of Life Insurance and What Makes Sense for You
Identifying if you do or do not want life insurance is not difficult, most of the challenges will come once you must commit to a specific type.

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.

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.

It means honoring the life my girl lived and the celebrating everything she brought to the world.

When Your Family Compares Your Mental Illness With Another Relative’s Experience
Recently, I was listening to a podcast interviewing a woman with chronic mental illness, who was discussing how she juggles parenting with her mental health. The woman mentioned that her son struggled with his own mental health issues that presented differently from her own. The discussion turned to how families can inadvertently create a situation where one individual becomes the “poster child” for mental illness within the family unit, which may inhibit others within the family from acknowledging their own struggles because they don’t fit the familial narrative of what it means to be mentally ill.

7 (Actually Helpful) Things to Say to Someone Struggling With Mental Illness
“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.

What This Nurse With Chronic Illness Learned From Her Patients
I was diagnosed with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) about halfway through my final year of nursing school. In the middle of my exams I was hospitalized, which was an incredibly grounding experience given that I had just spent a large chunk of time on the other side of the hospital bed learning how to look after people. I was shocked at how vulnerable I felt, even though intellectually I understood exactly what was going on around me.

How Life With Chronic Pain Taught Me to Be More Present
This time last year while the world fell apart, I pulled myself together. As odd as it may seem, I thrived during the pandemic. I knew what it was like to shut down and isolate myself, so things shutting down and quarantining were, in many ways, familiar to me. I knew because I had experienced lows so low you withdraw from people, I would survive being away from people, even though it would be hard. It comforted me to know I would be OK. It also motivated me to be better than OK.
