Today is what I call a… non brain day 🧠🤍
You know when your brain just… buffers?
Like an old computer with too many tabs open and absolutely no intention of cooperating.
That’s me today. 🫠🫠🫠
Sadly, my body didn’t get the memo…
so we’re up, dressed, existing… just without the full management team present 🤦🏻‍♀️
For those who don’t know, I live with Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) and fibromyalgia.
FND basically means my brain and body have a bit of a miscommunication issue…
signals get scrambled, delayed, or just don’t arrive at all.
Think crossed wires… but make it ✨unpredictable✨.
Fibromyalgia adds its own sprinkle…
chronic pain, deep fatigue, and that lovely “why do I feel like I’ve run a marathon in my sleep?” feeling.
Together?
Well… you get days like this.
Where words might come out a bit wonky.
Where I read something three times and still don’t know what it says.
Where my brain just goes, “no thank you, try again tomorrow.”
So if I don’t reply…
or what I write makes absolutely no sense…
Just know: this is very normal for me.
And honestly?
You are fully invited to laugh with me about it ❤️
Because sometimes the only thing to do
when your brain has gone on holiday without you…
is make a cup of tea, shrug, and say
“fair enough then.”
A smidgen of patience.
A smidgen of humour.
And we carry on 🌿
