Tweet by autoimmunestrg As a person living with chronic illness, I am so accustomed to being doubted, to being called a hypochondriac, that I have learned to distrust my own symptoms and to doubt myself too. I am now working to unlearn that doubt and trust myself first and foremost

“Children are increasingly starting primary school struggling to talk”
Well it can’t be lockdowns - many of the kids that started school last September weren’t even born!
So can we start addressing the elephant in the room: Covid brain damage.

Happy International Women's Day especially to the amazing women in the Long Covid and chronic illness community. A special thought for the patient advocates/researchers who are doing so much heavy lifting for LC recognition, sometimes with little help or recognition. Thanks 🌸

Kids keep getting sicker as evidence for COVID immune damage builds by @juliadoubleday.bsky.social www.thegauntlet.news/p/kids-keep-...
Please don’t have “measles parties.”
Even for kids who fully recover, measles is a miserable experience.
And a substantial number will have complications.
Just get vaccinated instead.
To the men who spent today mansplaining, harassing & talking down to me… thanks for showing us WHY we still need an International Women’s Day.
If you’re coming into the posts of women sharing their experiences & advocating for equality just to demean and agitate… you’re 100% part of the problem.
Telling a disabled person who can’t work that they will be punished with if they don’t work… is like saying to an average non-disabled person they will have their pay withheld if they can’t run a 4 minute mile…
Utterly meaningless and impossible to achieve.
