Going to uni is scary for anyone, but with ME/CFS, there is another layer to it all. Today, I’m chatting about my thoughts and feelings as the big day approaches. I’ve never been to uni before, so there are many unknowns in all of this. Such as how will i manage? Will my course be right for me? Will I be able to join in on “normal” Maybe you can find some comfort in hearing how I’m feeling pre-uni.

School is a lot for anyone. With the class time, homework, revision, coursework, socialising, clubs and more, it’s a lot to manage. Add a chronic illness on top of that, and the whole thing collapses. It is too much. Being chronically ill in school means missing out on lots, being behind, and questioning if it is possible. In today’s podcast episode, I chat about my time in high school and how I managed it all to the best of my ability. This is not a step-by-step guide to managing because one of those doesn’t exist.

In today's episode, I wanted to introduce life with ME/CFS. This by no means covers everything about ME/CFS, but it covers some of the symptoms, what can help, how life can change, support, and whether you're alone in this. I thought of this as a podcast for anyone who's recently diagnosed and feels a bit lost in the unknown and wants to know a bit more info on what's going on and what is to come. I hope you enjoy it and see you next Wednesday for another episode ..read more

I asked you on Instagram last week what you wanted people to know about being chronically ill as for healthy people it’s something they haven’t experienced and they can’t fully understand it so I wanted to see what sorts of things the community believe more people need to know. Instagram did not disappoint and I had too many replies to fit into one episode so let me know if you want another! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thetiredsociety/message ..read more
