Hello! It has been a long time since I've written anything! I don't feel like much has changed in my life so no big updates. Having illnesses that affect your hormones is rough. It's hard to find motivation. It's hard to live a normal life. I think that it's blocking my creative juices because I've been finding it hard to write anything lately. I left my thyroid medication at my mom's house and I'm finding it very frustrating. I think this paragraph is a testament to my inability to focus. Thanks body! I'm sure it's a combination of the medications I take and the fact that I have irregularities with my thyroid and parathyroid hormone. I feel all over the place and like I can't focus! I've been taking 90mg of cinacalcet for the hyperparathyroidism. I take 75 micrograms of levothyroxine for hypothyroidism. I'm supposed to have started birth control again but I haven't yet. Why is it so hard to focus? It doesn't help that my job hasn't really given me many days of work lately. I'm feeling stressed on and off. Looks like I need some better coping mechanisms than Mario Maker. I need to make some changes but it's not really easy when you have a whole bunch of illnesses. It's so hard to focus on improving myself when I can hardly focus on the bare minimum.

I had so much fun reading this! So captivating and relatable
What a great blog post! The Mario Maker is a great reference :) You are on point with how hard it is to focus with an illness or even multiple illnesses. It's just like focusing on a set of waves that are coming at you. One comes that you need to dive under. Then another one in the set, which could be bigger comes at you two seconds later. Then Another one comes and can completely wipe you out if you aren't able to focus.
Much like how it is to live with an illness. Lose focus for a minute and it all can come crashing down, just like a wave wiping you out. We need to support each othe…
