WHAM! Hit by a Bus on the Road to Recovery

On 1st Aug 2025 By Absurd RhioIn Recovery UpdatesLeave a comment

Sick, starving, and betrayed by a single Biscoff biscuit, I’ve been trying to navigate recovery while my digestive system does parkour. Extreme hunger didn’t get the memo that I’m ill. Meanwhile, Clippy’s screaming about productivity, and Lidl’s haunted canoe won’t leave. Healing’s wild. No one warned me about buses.

Grief blogging, ADHD chaos, ED recovery, and Cyberpunk 2077 outbursts. Sometimes Biscoff. Always feelings.
