I'm a complicated mess already but my health issues, mainly my auto-immune arthritis, make it worse. Reading, my pets, my boyfriend, and exercising keeps me happy though.
The above things also constitute as my hobbies... I know, I have no life.

I'm currently on a feminine, lady-like, vintage, classy kick. Be forewarned.

Gluten Free since April 2012.

He took her in his arms & said:

“That’s what my loves for, when you’re weak, I’ll be strong.

When you let go, I’ll hold on.

When you need to cry, I swear that I’ll be there to dry your eyes.

When you feel lost and scared to death, like you can’t take one more step, just take my hand, together we can do it…

I’m gonna love you through it.”

Real love worth holding onto.


This has been one of my favorite songs since the very first time I heard it. <3

Curing the Incurable: ATTENTION EVERYONE →

THIS IS IMPORTANT.


Please take a minute to SIGN THIS PETITION against MAXIM, who recently posted an article on their website titled “5 Diseases We Wouldn’t Mind Having”, where they highlight chronic conditions that are “cool” and/or “good to have.”


The articles…

Thought I’d share this with you all.

They’ve updated it to remove Ehlers-Danlos but there are still 4 other conditions up there and I can’t imagine how anybody could think think was a good idea?

“We’re complete assholes.” Yeah, we all agree. But taking down one condition and leaving up the other four doesn’t make it any more acceptable or appropriate. Maybe if you turned the article in a different direction, it would be taken a little better. “Here are a few lesser known conditions that have serious drawbacks, no matter how cool you may think they sound at first.” Something more along those lines would be better since articles on more popular sites would be a good way to spread awareness.

And so it begins…

mycoccyxisinthefreezer:

It was decided today that I can start Anti-TNF treatment for my Ankylosing Spondylitis. I haven’t responded well to NSAIDs/Joint Inejections but at least we tried. Waiting on the results of my chest x-ray to make sure I don’t have any TB issues and then we are good to go…. Wish me luck!


Good luck!!!! I still take my NSAIDs even though I take enbrel once a week and together they help me maintain a bearable level so hopefully enbrel helps you too!

My arthritis is flaring :( Someone make me feel better? :)

What did the buffalo say to his son when he left for college? “Bison.”

What do you call an alligator wearing a vest? An investigator!

What do you call fake pasta? Impasta!

Corny, I know, but stupid jokes like that make me feel better for some reason. Hopefully it can do the same for you. Hang in there, sweetie, it’ll pass. <3

I know this will sound selfish and just ridiculous, but I just hate living. I hate being here. I hate being sick and tired. I hate “staying strong.” I hate it, and I don’t want to live anymore.

i don’t know about selfish …but i do understand the rest.

You aren’t alone.

Maybe one of these days I’ll be able to hear the advice I give others and actually listen. Maybe one of these days I’ll be able to believe myself when I say that things will get better, that this is just a bump in the road. All of your flaws make you who you are so why do I feel like mine make me a monster?

Just make it all go away…

I think I need to either up my happy pills or to find a new one to take.. Honestly, I’d prefer the second option since a month’s prescription of cymbalta costs about $75 under our new health insurance plan…

I don’t want to seem like I’m complaining because I know that there are so many other people out there that have it worse off than me… I just don’t know how to deal with it. I’m sick of being in pain. Of being sick. And tired. Sore. Stiff. Grumpy. Bitchy. Crying. Lost. I just don’t know what to do anymore. The worst thing is that I feel like I’m pushing away the one person who has always been there for me. I feel like everything I say or do ends up starting a fight or a misunderstanding or I hurt his feelings. And honestly, even just the thought of losing him makes me want to give up. I have a hard enough time coping with everything as is, I don’t know what I would do if he ever realized that I wasn’t worth all the trouble I cause.
