In fact, may I quote you, Emily? I maintain an online library that includes resources related to neuroplasticity and "invisible" chronic illness, and I'd *love* for others to benefit from your wisdom and experience, if you are willing?

Absolutely you can quote me if you think it’s helpful. Anonymity not required. Being me is just fine.
I imagine as a person who writes and speaks for a living I could be more eloquent if I tried harder. Or wasn’t working on a project while messing around on Substack. (Not now. At 4 am this is just ADHD taking advantage of some pain induced insomnia.)
Proprioception and I have a difficult relationship. Having been through vestibular rehabilitation therapy twice and knowing the power of a MMOO oral splint and insole orthotics combo for orienting in space, I find neuroplasticity utterly fascinating. I keep meaning to fill that prism glasses Rx … 🙂
Invisible chronic illness is pretty much my theme. I have, without hyperbole, around 100 Dx codes. The main grouping that beget all the secondary and tertiary bedevilments is hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome with Mast Cell Activation Syndrome and various dysautonomias related to connective tissue failures (Sjogrens, cardiac weirdness, swallowing issues, airway occlusion, thoracic outlet syndrome). Those three sets of issues - hEDS/MAST/dysautonomia - will someday get grouped under their own (hopefully cool) name. It’s global, it’s end stage for many failed joints, no major bodily system remains unaffected. We are having fun over here. You’d be amazed at all I CAN do. I am.
This will be the source of much screwing off. ADHD is so excited! (hEDS and ADHD are dancing partners. Those of us with aura and synesthesia are especially odd. We’re on the neurodiverse side of fun. Or as my sister put it, “Don’t take LSD. It’s a waste of good drugs you could otherwise be sharing with someone less fortunate than you.” Too bad about all the migraines, though. Nothing is free, I suppose.)
Thank you, Metta, for putting together such an extensive body of work. Thank you for your important contribution, both from the medical and spiritual perspectives. (Same thing, I know.)
