Hi, absolutely! Not exactly a spoonie, but right now, today my body will give me 3-4 hours of work a day and I am spent. But, yes I am definitely pacing. I have had long Covid a few times now and unfortunately it just has gotten worse. I was diagnosed last week with my 5th autoimmune disorder/disease. I have to pace and not push myself to the edge, but instead I stop short of exhaustion and take a nap. I'm tired of all of this. I really am. It's not just my body that can wear me out, using my brain for complicated processes leads me to exhaustion as well. About 4 hours and my brain just goes offline and doesn't return without rest. Yeah, I attended a class on living with long Covid, but never got the visual of spoons. My energy is such, that I am on or off. I wish I had like 4 spoons a day and could stretch out my strength and endurance throughout the day but it doesn't work for me that way. I'm on or off. But, that's ok, because I know how to manage my symptoms which is the point, yeah? Journaling helped me find the patterns I needed to be more efficient with my illness and establish boundaries with those around me who were used to me doing more. I know they miss my energy, but what's the point in running myself into the ground and then needing help and care from those around me? I prefer to protect my energy, be responsible to myself and the best I can be to others from there. It's such a an adjustment and emotionally uncomfortable. I'm sorry 😔
