I paced myself while doing laundry, dishes, bathroom cleaning, and trash sorting.
I brushed my teeth, flossed, rinsed, and washed my face.
I finally cleaned my glasses.
I organized my bedroom closet a little.
I rested intermittently.
I told myself that all I can do is the best I can do, and that it's okay to rest.
I told myself that the pain, fatigue, and dizziness/vertigo I feel can be managed, as can all of my physical disabilities.
I allowed myself to feel negative emotions, and I validated my feelings when I've read stories about others who feel similarly.
Smiling. Super proud of you! Look at this! Way to go!

My disease causes chronic pain and fatigue. Some days, some weeks, some months are worse than others. I sincerely understand where you are coming from. So many days I pushed myself through the fatigue to clean, or walk and do stuff. Be very, very proud of yourself.
