Invisibleillness storie

Sovarielle was born into a legacy of music and magic-one of the legendary sound dragons of Whispervale. But everything changed the day an attack stole her sense of smell, severing her from the bond that connects dragonkind. Exiled by instinct and grieving the loss of her family and horde, she vanished into the human world, learning to navigate life through sound instead of scent. In dragon society, scent is everything. It guides memory, emotion, and-most importantly-connection. It is how dragons recognize their mates. Without it, Sovarielle is considered broken, untethered... alone. Years later, a single misstep leads her back into dragon territory-and into a storm of long-forgotten alliances, mythical creatures, and rising tensions. From sirens guarding sacred seas to secretive centaurs with ancient wisdom, Sovarielle's path is shaped by those who see her not as damaged, but different. And as feelings deepen between her and a dragon who seems to know more than he says, she begins to wonder: If dragons find their mates by scent... will she ever truly know if she's found hers? A map of the country is included in the prologue, showing dragon territories, human cities, and key locations mentioned throughout the story. For readers who enjoy diving deeper, I've also created The Scentmarked Archive, which includes an interactive map and expanded lore exploring ancient dragon territories, mysterious islands, siren legends, shifter homelands, and more. You can find the link to the archive and map in my bio. Thank you so much for choosing to step into this world with me.

This is my journey to getting a service dog! Disclaimer: Some mild language and rants! 🤣 I'm also older then I appear to be, I just look really young lol Invisible illness is just as real as a visible illness

Silent Chaos is where my pain finds its voice. A quiet sanctuary of poetry and prose shaped by chronic illness, survival, and the storm beneath the surface. Sometimes, all I have are words - bleeding quietly from wounds no one can see. Welcome to my journey - I'm still writing the ending with every breath I take.

She wasn't the topper. She wasn't the girl with a perfect plan. But when life kept breaking her in quiet, invisible ways - she still chose to stand. This is the story of a girl who lost her way, but never let go of her fire. A journey through silence, survival, and soft rebellion. No love triangles. No fairytales. Just one girl vs. everything - including herself.

Blog about my day to day life with Crohn's disease and thoughts on treatments

It's for everyone. Both those that have already tried recovery and those who are still fighting. I'm here to support. All of you, all of us. Because we all matter. I'm not a professional. Not a psychologist, psychiatrist. Just an ed survivor, writing from lived experience. Skip if you find these triggering - I completely understand. I believe that we all deserve support, and much better than the world that portrays serious diseases as "success stories" or "becoming healthier, prettier." We can do better. In short, this is a series about eating disorders and everything related to them: relapses, beginnings, the process, healing, society's influence, and recovery. I write about things that affect me as a person who has, and still is struggling with this little trap in her mind that says to give up. And that's why I'm creating this. We need something else besides the constant skinny obsession, don't we? Even if you decide not to read any of the chapters - I get it. If you don't agree with my point of view that I share in this project, that's alright. I'm not trying to convince anyone to my mind. I'm trying to let people with invisible, underrated struggles be heard, seen. And you're valid. You're enough. There're more of us. We are no longer silent. We're here for ourselves - that's already a big step toward healing. I'm not going to tell you that recovery is the same for everyone. I'm not going to tell you that people won't comment on your appearance. I'm not going to tell you that you'll always love yourself after recovery. But I am going to, at least try, to convince you that being alive is worth more than looking a certain way. You think feeling your bones is hot? You know what's more? BEING ALIVE. Healing is a process. And it's hard. But as long as you are alive, you always have a chance. I'm not one of the perfectly recovered ones. I see this trap. I've lived in it. I still do. But I'm not afraid of speaking about it - until someone finally hears me.

My name is Cole. I'm an addict, or at least I was one labeled as one. I am now grateful to say I am a recovering addict. I have a rare brain disease called Chiari Malformation, which is incurable but manageable. After years of pretending to accept my diagnosis, I am proud to say I not only accept it but am grateful for it. Being ill has changed my perspective on life and the importance of it. I wanted to share these things because they may make up a part of me, even though I'm not defined by them. I also will not be only speaking on those topics. I plan on letting it all out from fear, anger, and resentment to acceptance, self love, and allowing anything, hell everything to happen and find the beauty... Even when it looks as if there is none. I made this blog because I want to talk about life on life's terms; acceptance, pain, and rising above when life pushes you. I plan on talking about a variety of issues that I moved past and currently overcame. This blog will be REAL, RAW, AND, UNFILTERED. All I write will be my truth. Cold and hard yet necessary. Welcome to COLESHARDTRUTH.

She was fourteen when it arrived - silent, invisible, and merciless. In the sweltering heat of a Jacksonville summer, she was just a girl walking in her worn-out Converse shoes to the playground. Laughing with friends. Dreaming about eighth grade. But within days, her body began to betray her. Fevers, weight loss, rashes, and weakness-signs of an unseen war beginning inside her. Uninvited is the raw, intimate memoir of a young woman whose life was upended by an illness that came without warning and never left. More than a story of diagnosis, it's a portrait of survival-through pain and confusion, through hospitals and unanswered questions, through the quiet moments no one sees. From adolescence to adulthood, this journey traces not just the fight against a chronic illness, but the many battles life throws outside of it: identity, relationships, grief, endurance, and learning to live with something that was never supposed to be part of the plan. Told with unflinching honesty and quiet strength, Uninvited is a testament to what it means to lose control-and slowly, defiantly, reclaim your life.

She was born different. She grew up in hospitals. She survived what should have killed her-twice. At three years old, Sarah Bakker was handed a lifetime of diagnoses: Marfan syndrome, Neurofibromatosis, and more to come. By eighteen, she had faced bullying, abuse, self-harm, and a suicide attempt. By twenty-three, she endured open-heart surgery. By twenty-five, cancer nearly took her life. At twenty-nine, it came back. But Sarah's story isn't just about illness and pain-it's about love, grit, and the fire to keep living. With her husband by her side and a son who became her anchor, she has turned every setback into a reason to fight. Fierce: The Girl Who Died, Lived, and Refused to Break is a raw, unflinching memoir about surviving the unthinkable. It's about family, forgiveness, invisible battles, and the strength to be more than just the "sick girl." For anyone who has ever felt unseen, unheard, or underestimated, this is proof that broken bones and battered hearts can still hold unbreakable souls.

I have had quite the ride these last three months. My symptoms were attacking me like crazy. It seemed as soon as I figured out a plan on how to go about fighting one, another symptom would come out of nowhere not just adding more stress to my body but also giving the other symptoms more to go on. July I was nothing but a sweat box. There was nothing I could do without literally needing to change my soaked clothes. It didn't matter if I was outside or in my air-conditioned house. All of the above caused me constant flare which caused my Anxiety to heighten to new all time highs. My Anxiety caused my depression to heighten leading to severe fatigue. Nothing I did could help me out of all of this. I would have moments of hope, where I would feel good and have energy. I had hopes that I had finally pulled out of all this, but then as fast as I felt better is as fast as I went back into this flare. I am trying my hardest to get out of this funk and feel a bit more like my normal self, but the fight is exhausting and sometimes needs a bit more energy then I can give.
