CHAPTER ELEVEN: www.wattpad.com/1538349236?u...

I’ve reached *that* point in my chronic illness and disability journey where I’m considering writing a list so I don’t forget 😂

Editing in the sun 🌞

I’m posting this as a reminder, as much to myself as to others. It’s extra important to stay hydrated if you’re on medication ‼️‼️ I take quetiapine for EUPD, lamotrigine for epilepsy, and sertraline for anxiety — have drank almost two litres in two hours 😅

Finish the sentence: You know you’re a writer when…

Mum has been busy in the garden. Bob and I are very appreciative ❤️

I can't help but think that WRITING WOULD BE SIGNIFICANTLY EASIER IF I WASN'T MY OWN WORST CRITIC

So uh, hi. 👋 I feel a bit weird posting this, but this is mostly why I've been quieter on here. If you have questions, feel free to message me. Also please considering sharing if you feel comfortable. #gofundme #disability gofund.me/8eabf70e

If you’re having a bad day, allow Paddy to make it a bit brighter. He says ‘wheek wheek’ which, in Guinea pig language, roughly translates to, “You’ve got this.”

Me because endo pain is currently feeling like barbed wire and iykyk 😭

CHAPTER NINE www.wattpad.com/1535019628?u...

Went to the hospital yesterday afternoon to pick up a sleep tracker to rule out sleep apnea (before diagnosing fibromyalgia), and I ended up having a dacrystic seizure. It’s like I go to treat one thing, and another presents. Fuck chronic illnesses

“I think we need some time alone, so you can reconnect with your Welsh roots.” — My bestie because I’m picking up her accent

Bestie arrived last Monday and was sheepish even just to sit down. Fast forward to now, she’s singing Single Ladies by Beyoncé to me while I use the bathroom

Bestie has fallen asleep holding my hand 🥺❤️

Bestie has bestied so hard she’s met my immediate family, aunt, and cousins and they all adore each other 🥹

My heart is still bursting 💓

Fed and cuddled lambs yesterday 🥹 I’m very self conscious of how I look but can’t not share this picture. Fourteen years vegetarian, nine years vegan — felt like a full circle moment 🐑🤍

feeding my bestie singular jellybeans by hand while she studies. but still everybody warns about chatting to people you don’t know online 😭😭

reuniting with my long distance bestie today. it’s been eleven months 🥹

i’m about to record a monologue (haven’t acted in 10+ years) and i’m too worried that it’ll be bad that i haven’t started 😂

In case any of my fellow creatives also needed this reminder:

i had a focal seizure on friday and i’m still feeling out of sorts from it. the confusion is otherworldly. feels like i’m in an apocalypse or something ??

AHHHH 🥹

the bristolian accent sounds like a hug

taylor didn’t need to go this hard

this two hour writing sesh is about to go hard

animals definitely know when you’re struggling with your mental health. my anxiety has been through the roof for the past few days and murphy the guinea pig just took it upon himself to climb up my chest and rest his head on my shoulder 🥹

update 2.0: i’m going to buy a book of monologues and give this a whirl. it’s been sixteen years 🥲

poe is so gentle 🥹

update: i'm now sober and still considering it but what if i SUCK

tipsy thoughts: i miss drama and might consider learning and filming monologues
