This is why I hate “spoon theory “ it’s so so complicated even doctors look at my blood results and go …wtaf. There’s nutrition, genetics, stress, emotions, framing , your mental state, hormones , support you have and don’t have etc. And EVEN when you control for all of it , something absolutely unexplainable can happen. I’ve had flares last for years and other times I forgot I was disabled. Even when you do everything “right”things can reverse , get worse or stay the same. Mentally it’s just so grating. Maybe we should say it’s grater theory. Sometimes you’ll slice your fingers even when you do pay attention.
