The combination of this weather and the amount of moving about I’ve been doing lately has resulted in such an intense amount of pain that my body appears to be attempting to crawl out of itself. I just want to lay in bed and read and drink tea.
I always get such good suggestions from all of you, so I wonder: what are you currently reading?
Also, an addendum: I wish I weren’t so anti-social when I’m in pain. In a way, being around other people makes me hyper-aware of my embodiment and the physical pain that sometimes entails. Even though I trust in the understanding and empathy of the support network of friends I’ve created here, I always seclude myself when it gets this bad. It’s easier to cope, I suppose? My whole mod is cleaning the kitchen and I don’t know if I can physically help out right now. I am not an easy person to live with.
