Why Am I So Anxious?
Hello everyone! It feels good to be able to publish another post after a 4-month hiatus of sorts. I’ve been really going through it lately. With many doctor appointments and ever-changing symptoms, it’s made it quite difficult to focus on what I want to say and even more difficult to actually type it out. Because of ALL of my symptoms it takes me long time to complete each blog post so I am…

My Personal Journey with Lupus & Chronic Lyme Disease
i
Life has a way of throwing unexpected challenges our way, and for some, those challenges come in the form of chronic illnesses. In my case, it’s a double whammy – living with both Lupus and Chronic Lyme Disease. These two conditions have reshaped my life in ways I never imagined, taking me on a journey filled with ups and downs, resilience, and self-discovery.
The Unseen Battle

Guilt & Chronic Illness
Something I’ve noticed as I navigate living with chronic illness and connecting with others who are on the same path, nobody really speaks about the guilt that comes with chronic illness. I know in my own life I certainly have felt guilty for being sick and not being able to do the things I used to be able to do with and for myself and my family. My chronic illness is debilitating, which means…

Where Did The Time Go?
Over the past few months I’ve really been spending a lot of time reflecting. Thinking about my life, where I’ve been and how far I still have to go. A lot of things have changed. Specifically, I’ve noticed a change in my mental health. I’ve begun to experience some mild depression that ebbs and flows throughout the day. In the past I would have felt a feeling that would cause me to feel down or…

Some Days I Feel Like Giving Up | I Won't
This is a post that I debated writing for quite some time. My goal with this blog and podcast (Windy’s Journey), is to be fully and completely transparent in hopes that my journey will Empower | Encourage | Inspire someone else who might be living with chronic illness. That being said, sometimes it’s really hard putting yourself out there for fear of judgement or misunderstanding. At times the…

A Day In The Life Of Someone With Chronic Illness | Part 3 | Evenings
The final part of my “Day In The Life Of” series will be rather short and to the point as there’s not a lot going on for me at the end of the day. The priority for me and my family after about 6pm is…what will we eat for dinner. This is a point of stress for me, my husband and my daughter because we can never really decide what we want to eat, but we surely know what we DON’T feel like eating…

A Day In The Life Of Someone With Chronic Illness | Part 2 | Afternoons
I hope my last post gave some clear insight to what my mornings typically look like. It’s a struggle to get my day started each day as I slowly get moving and assess how my body feels. So, that being said, let’s talk about my afternoons shall we?
AFTERTOON
Most days my aftertoons start with a nap. The morning takes so much energy that it leaves me completely worn out. I love napping with all of…

A Day In The Life Of Someone With Chronic Illness | Part 1
I don’t even know where to begin. The title alone intimidates me. Mainly because I’m wondering how in the world could I ever capture a day in the life of me? I may need to come at this in multiple posts I suppose, I mean this post could get quite lengthy and who has time for that? Let see how it goes and if I need to break this up over several posts I will. Let’s get started with what my mornings…

A Chronic Illness | Not To Do List
For someone living with chronic illness it’s important for us to be thoughtful of the things we do everyday so we don’t over exert ourselves. That means being mindful of the things we CAN do and the things we CAN’T do. This can be hard for someone who is used to being independent, like me, but in order to practice self care we need to pay attention to our bodies and let it take the lead on what…

Chronic Illness & My Love Of Fashion
This is a topic that I’ve struggled with for quite some time now. You see while I have been living with Fibromyalgia and Chronic Lyme Disease (to name a couple), I also have a great love for ALL things fashion. So what’s the big deal? Well, I’m so glad you asked.
HOW I SHOW UP VS. HOW OTHERS SHOW UP
My issue with this is in the way I show up. Most people you come across who live with some type…

The Power Of Intention Setting & Chronic Illness
Over the past several years, I’ve learned the hard way that it’s important to be intentional about the things I choose to do. It’s important to me to spend time with my family and my amazing friends, but oftentimes I don’t feel good and I’m not able to do as much as I would like to. I spend a lot of time at home alone while my husband is working and my daughter is in school. During the day I am…

My Life Before Chronic Illness
Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about my life before I was diagnosed with a chronic illness. I spend a good amount of time alone which has afforded me time to reflect over the last 20 years. I often wonder what my life would be like had I not gone to the doctor all those years ago in an effort to get to the root cause for being so sick and for so long. I mean, what if I would have ignored the…

The Cold Makes My Fibromyalgia Worse
I have been living with Fibromyalgia for over 20 years now and I must say I never look forward to the winter months here in Texas. Around the month of February is when we start to see more traditional winter temperatures, that’s the time of year my body dreads the most. As the temps start to drop my body begins feeling the cold in my bones which makes the already intense fibromyalgia pain worse.…

I Have A Full-Time Job & It's Called Chronic Illness
Having a chronic illness such as Fibromyalgia and Chronic Lyme Disease can be challenging and debilitating to say the least. Many of us are unable to work traditional jobs due to the intense pain, extreme fatigue, brain fog, memory loss and more. However managing our illness should be classified as a full time job.
You see I have been living with chronic illness for 20 years this year!…
