In honor of January 28 Superior Mesentery Awareness Day, I did an episode about an overview of SMAS and my personal experience plus a few of yours! All my info is from NORD. Thank you for listening to this little overview and I hope you learn something! Ps I swear I get angry

Like the title states, I talk about as chronically Ill I feel like a burden and useless human being. We be brutally honest as my mom joins me again to ask me questions, help me break down my thoughts and giggle with me. Mostly doing another one with her cus it’s been a bad time with my Lyme. Hope you enjoy! Also we tell dumb stories about our life!

Today my mom and I sit together in a Airbnb and chat about Lyme and from a caretakers point of view while also talking diagnosing Lyme. It’s a lot of me giggling and her being annoyed by me, so enjoy lol! These episodes will be longer :)

I hate New Years. So today I talk about it. I sit down and talk about how I dislike the concept of New Years, how it makes me feel as someone who’s chronically ill, and how I find the light in it :)

Today I try to chat through a Lyme Herximer reaction and discuss my past friendships, and how it effected me as I got sicker along with my struggles with weight (TW) and my sickness. Kinda a ramble session since my brain is super on fire lol.

Okay okay this episode I discuss having to rely on medical devices, watching your health decline and doctors (of course) telling you it’s not significant enough.

This episode wasn’t suppose to be like this, but I decided to talk about my mental health and breakdown how it feels mentally being chronically Ill and realizing that your sick.

Episode 1 of many where chronically ill teen Autumn(me), dives into realizing the reality of being sick and while reflecting on the last four years of her life as an introduction to her podcast series about her illness and mental health.
