Are you feeling fatigued? How do you manage it?
Unfortunately, fatigue is a part of living with AS. Learning ways to manage your fatigue can be a game-changer and help you live a happier, more rested life.
Bed rest is good for me as long as I'm not asleep more than I'm awake...I then have cognitive issues to deal with.
Brain fog is a common complaint. You aren't alone. Do you have some good support at home to help you when everything gets foggy? Warmly, Kathy (Team member)
fight through it,no choice. will not give in
Youâve got a strong will,
! But know that itâs okay if some days require a different kind of strength than just pushing through. You deserve to slow down when you need to. -Latoya (Team Member)
I do my best to power through it, or rest when it gets too hard
It's usually rest, I try to sleep as much as I can. Depending on the severity the longer it takes to recover. I get it. Recovery can definitely look different depending on the day, and sometimes rest and sleep really are the only answer. -Latoya (Team Member)
Fight through it as much as possible, then accept that I've tried and lay down. You can only fight your body so much and only for so long. But, you must art least try to live as best as possible.
It should be normal and okay to rest without feeling guilty. When living with something as complicated as AxSpa, itâs important to honor both your strength and your limits, while still finding ways to enjoy and make the most of each day. Continue to put your best foot forward as much as you can! -Latoya (Team Member)
