Yes, this theory really works and makes me realize how to pace better
One of the first things I learned about when I was diagnosed.
Thank you Linda, that was very kind of you! I still donât get it. I think it because it involves math!𧟠đ€©
@A MyFibroTeam Member đ Youâre just overthinking this. You have a certain amount of spoons=Time
You have to tailor it for yourself. Say, Dressing for the day is a small chore for you & your fibro. Maybe thatâs 1 spoon for you.
For me itâs drudgery maybe 3 spoons for me.
You know yourself what is difficult for you. You think about your day and see what you can and cannot do that day. You have a limited amount of âspoonsâ when you have used them up that day, week, etc youâre just out of spoons. You canât do anything more. If you can look at it that way, you can better pace your dayâŠ
I hope this helps-probably wonât. Itâs one of the BEST ways to help yourself.( Maybe I just muddied the waterâŠđ Linda â”ïž
I havenât heard of this but itâs interesting and quite accurate. Thank you âșïž
