The Spoon Rest

A safe and supportive space for adults living at the intersection of Mental Illness, Chronic Pain, and other energy-limiting conditions. -------- Managing chronic pain, fluctuating energy levels, and other symptoms that most people simply don't understand can feel impossible. Living with mental health struggles can be frustrating and exhausting. Trying to live a meaningful life with both of these is an entirely Unique Experience - if you've lived it, you Get It. Sadness, frustration, confusion, rage, and grief are all just as inherent to this life as joy, hope, or ambition... and it is SO hard to explain sometimes! At The Spoon Rest, we "Spoonies" share stories and goals and successes... but first, we share how we're REALLY doing. The Spoon Rest is where you will find respite from a world that demands too much. The Spoon Rest is where you will be believed and supported by fellow Spoonies who truly "Get It", and we will encourage one another and find things to be hopeful for together.
