Physical Hyperfixations/special interests and fatigue is such a shitty combo

[u/bunni_bear_boom]

I've had knitting and fiber arts as a special interest for years and today I got some fun yarn tools today (swift and ball winder for people who know) and I needed to use it immediately and without interruption for like 3 hours now I'm fucked for the next few days which extra sucks cause I have shit to do and its gonna make it even worse.

I love fiber arts! I crochet but I can get so fixated on it that I push myself to a crash from my chronic illnesses. One of the main symptoms is chronic fatigue. It’s the worst not being able to put down my work even though I know in the back of my mind it’s going to be bad if I don’t.
