I have a really exciting Spoonie Living announcement for y’all! When I started on my 6-month medical leave from work, one of my goals was to create a zine for new spoonies, to help them hit the ground running as they begin their chronic illness experience. I’m calling it Chronically Badass, and it’s finally done!
Here’s what I cover inside:
- Spoon theory
- Getting answers
- Working with doctors
- Work & school
- Friends & family
- Reactions
- Mental health
- Coping strategies
- Online communities
- Mobility
It’s free for download right here (although you’re welcome to donate if you like), so be sure to check it out!
Please also reblog and spread the word so others can find and benefit from this zine.
Is there any way to get this without a credit card? I’d love to read it, but not sure how to get it without having a card.
Gosh, absolutely! If you set the amount to $0, the credit card thing will disappear—give it a shot 🙂
Just read this and loved it!
