You may have heard of a concept called "Spoon Theory" before and not understood what it means. Spoon theory is a way of relating and thinking about energy expenditures in people with chronic illnesses. It uses spoons as a unit of energy to demonstrate how different activities require a different energy level and how a person must budget their activities daily.
In my case, this is applicable for narcolepsy, chronic fatigue and dysautonomia - but spoon theory can be applied to a wide range of chronic and invisible illnesses.
