E182 - THE SPOON THEORY - ADDISON STYLE
The SPOON THEORY of chronic illness was created in 2003 by US writer and blogger CHRISTINE MISERANDINO. A metaphor to explain to a friend what life was like for her living with LUPUS. At a restaurant, she grabs some spoons and explains each spoon represents ENERGY. Living with a chronic illness we need to ration our spoons to manage daily tasks. Someone not living with a chronic illness has LIMITLESS SPOONS...unlike someone with a chronic illness.
Jill explains the role of cortisol in the body and how all 30 trillion cells of the human body at any given moment are using cortisol and depleting our spoons. When someone with adrenal insufficiency runs OUT OF SPOONS...every cell in the body is struggling.
