How I visualize my chronic fatigue.

Pencil and watercolors on paper, July 2016

Love this

Thank you. It honestly helps so much to see that my experience is relatable, and I hope it has helped other people know they’re not alone in their struggles. The response to this post is why I decided to focus my tumblr more on my art depicting my experience of chronic illness (URL change from lavenderspoonie to chronically-illustrated). Thanks for your support, everyone!

We can bear-ly handle how cute this is: 4 baby bears 🐻 at Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge #Alaska

Cuteness alert: four adorable bear cubs go on a walk with their mother in Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska. It’s rare to see a mother bear with that many cubs – they usually only have two or three baby bears. Next Friday, August 19, marks the 75th anniversary of the refuge, which was created to protect Kodiak bears and their habitat. Video by Lisa Hupp, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

Re: Christianity and therapy…I grew up in a house where my mom did (and still does) believe that depression can be cured by vitamin D and prayer. It wasn’t until I was in college that I was able to get actual help. Growing up, my youth pastors were well aware I suffered from an eating disorder and did nothing. Last time I visited my church the speaker called having an eating disorder and depression as personal choices. I can definitely relate to feeling ostracized by other Christians.

wilwheaton:

It sounds like you are describing awful people who self-identify as Christian, while completely ignoring the teachings in the New Testament where Christ makes it pretty clear that He wants you to take care of yourself.

For what it’s worth, it doesn’t sound like you’re ostracized by Christians as much as you are ostracized by assholes.
