The constant pain I am in. Just because I opt to get up, shower and make myself presentable, people assume I am ok...If they only knew the daily pain I experience.

The stress building up inside me when I'm out and about until I get home and can relax and maybe have a lie down

As I get older my disability gets worse I get frustrated and all I get is what do you expect as you get older

Hey everyone, how are you doing today?
Chronic illness often hides in plain sight. There are symptoms we can name… and then there are the parts no one sees:
🧠 This week, we want to open space for what so often goes unspoken.
👉 Finish this sentence in your own words:
“One thing no one sees about my illness is…”
You can write a sentence, a short thought, or just drop an emoji if that’s what feels right. There’s no pressure to explain or perform. Just know you’re in a space where people get it.
💙 Your story might help someone feel less alone today. We’re listening.
Take care,
Somya from the Carenity team 🌼
