Saturday, 29 Apr 2017. Issue #55.
In this edition: A poem expressing the fears of living with chronic pain. Insight into a grand mal seizure experience. Colourful comics about anxiety. Imagining what sensory overload from sounds due to fibromyalgia is like. Clinging onto things that aren’t good for us. The sad perception in society on what disability is. How unemployment with chronic illness is the rule, not exception. A bid to make fibromyalgia a disability in the U.K. A hysterectomy experience. The traumatic effects on your body when you freeze, on top of fight or flight.
