Chronic Illness on Sidechat | I’ve never gotten over how debilitating the paradox of living with illness is. Yes exercise and being “fit” will help a lot of my symptoms but it is extremely painful to even do a bit of exercise and even when I manage to push its painful after? Fuck this

fatphobia fuels the advice we get about exercise more than evidence does. My doctor gave me a list of specific exercises that help with EDS and said "do not push through the pain" because tolerance will grow better when you don't have to take so long to recover, plus he gave me muscle relaxers to minimize my recovery time. He's goated 😭

No because why did I get told I just needed to exercise more during a flare up caused by too much fucking exercise!!! Like babygirl I’m TRYING my body physically cannot take more!!!
