What keeps my heart awake is colorful silence. Claude Monet
I want to take care of a butch by learning new recipes just to cook for them, baking them sweet treats, sending them cute texts throughout the day, buying them books for their bookshelf, massaging their sore muscles, leaving a kiss mark on their cheek every time I leave etc etc I just want to look after a butch like they deserve <3
i need people to understand that when a person with a chronic illness talks about the fatigue that comes with it, we're not talking about the tiredness that comes from a 10 hour shift at work, we're talking about the inherent exhausting heavy malaise that hangs on your entire body like a weighted blanket from the time you wake up in the morning and doesn't get any lighter as the day goes on.
fatigue doesn't come from exertion. it's just innate- and when it does come from exertion, it's been worse than the innate fatigue that was already there in the first place, and it adds on top of it, not replaces it.
