A community for chronically ill people.

Rules

  1. Be excellent to each other
  2. Absolutely no ableism, although good faith questions that take an ableist stance will be left up pending moderator discretion.
  3. No quackery. Does an up-to date major review in a big journal or a major government guideline come to the conclusion you’re claiming is fact? No? Then don’t claim it’s fact. This applies to potential treatments and disease mechanisms.

Yeah it happens. I've got an auto immune disease. When I get any sort of bug, I'm sleeping 20 hours a day. Many people, my own wife included, comment on how must be nice to sleep that much.

I'm literally sleeping that much because I don't have the strength to do anything else
