The tired society Podcast

I'm Millie and chronic illness sucks but you're not alone it! Here I chat every Wednesday all about my experiences with my own chronic illness, chronic fatigue syndrome. I cover lots of topics so it's not just for those with CFS. I'm here to bring awareness and support. Chronic illnesses are often very isolating so I'm hoping to brighten your day and show you what you're going through is valid and there are others. Showing the good and the bad of everyday life, sharing tips and tricks to manage and personal stories along the way. Sit back, relax and get ready to join in on the tired society.

    Suicide prevention month - ME/CFS

    This episode comes with a warning of conversations to do with suicide and mental health. It’s currently suicide prevention month so I wanted to talk about suicide in people with me/cfs as it’s a common thing. We talk statistics and why this may be. I think mental health is not a big enough conversation in the me/cfs community and I think it should be. I hope you find this episode interesting. Love, Millie

    Life being different

    Today on The Tired Society Podcast, we chat about how life with chronic illness differs from life without a chronic illness. 
It is obvious that our lives differ; however, when speaking to a friend recently, I realised our perspectives on what to do with our lives really are different due to our health. I can’t just do whatever I want as I always have my health to think about and consider. 
I like to chat on this podcast and discuss, even if there isn’t always a conclusion to the topic. This is one of those times. I hope you enjoy it. 
Love, Millie

    Off to uni with ME/CFS

    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. 
Love, Millie

    Back to school - chronic illness edition

    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. Everyone’s experience will be different, but I do share what I had in place to make it as easy as possible to be in school and sit my exams. I hope this helps if you are going back to school soon, and I wish you all the best. Love, Millie

    I went to the Eras Tour!

    I had the absolute best time at the Eras Tour and am so so glad I went despite the crash I faced afterwards. Sometimes, you must do things knowing they will be bad for your health, but it’s worth it. This was one of those moments. 
In today’s episode, I chat about how I found the Eras Tour, how I managed it with a chronic illness, and what I will be doing in the future to manage concerts after having experienced this one. I hope you enjoy it. Love, Millie

    Chronic illness analogy

    Sorry for no episode this week; after the Eras Tour last week, I’ve been in full rest mode and lost track of the days! As a way to say sorry, here is a bonus podcast episode which I recorded last month on holiday when I was ill with COVID and some of my thoughts on chronic illness vs able-bodied people. I’ll be back on Wednesday for another podcast episode here on The Tired Society. Love, Millie

    Concerts with ME/CFS

    This week, I am off to the Eras Tour, and this is a BIG concert! This is my second time attending a concert, and I have never attended one of this size. I am nervous about how I will manage it and how it will affect me afterwards, but I am also excited to be able to experience this! In today’s podcast episode, I’m chatting about the things I’m doing to prepare for the show and the things I’m bringing with me to help me manage it. There will be a future episode about how this show actually went, what helped, and what didn’t, so watch out for that. Thanks for listening. Love, Millie

    So you have ME/CFS

    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.
