So, you've found me. This was probably by following a link on one of the messageboards I frequent, or possibly you actually know me in person and I sent you here. I imagine if you're reading this sometime significantly after 2011 there's a chance you got here from somewhere else entirely, or maybe even randomly surfed in. However your journey began, welcome, please stop a while!
There are a number of blogs about living with X condition, the problems and tribulations associated with that, which exist mostly to give good advice about how to deal with doctors, cope with bad days and generally live conscious of the illness you'll never be rid of. I'm hoping to give a more positive spin on things, and this is for my own benefit as much as anyone elses. I have a history of Depression, Asthma and various food intolerances, and now have been diagnosed with Dyspraxia and very recently Hypermobility Syndrome. But I've always been an active person, and the year or two that led to my latest diagnosis have been a hard run of becoming increasingly sedentary and run down, and I've lost a lot of the sense of being myself. In this blog I will be writing a number of articles relating to living with these conditions, with an emphasis on living. I don't have things as bad as some people I know, and I see them living to the fullest and wonder why I've let myself get so cornered and down. So this is going to by my place to track my return to the person I am inside, full of creativity, adaptability and energy, but at the same time, learning to acknowledge and accept my limits rather than ignore them and then kick myself for stupidity when I crash.
So, without further ado, on to the actual posting!
