♡ CHECK PROCESSING TIMES ♡ I make everything in house to order, so please be aware there is a lead time on all items. :) My hello pins* come in three sizes: 44mm/1.75" round 58mm/2.25" round 40x60mm rectangle *With the exception of the pride hello pins, which are not available in rectangle. In some photos is a coin for scale - it is a 5p, roughly the same size as a US dime. Two paper types are available [see photos for comparison]: Standard white paper: colour design printed on white printer paper. Recycled paper: colour design printed on recycled paper. Expect muted colours, flecks and imperfections. Colours may vary due to monitors showing colours differently. Message me for colour changes. Do be aware that some of the more "wordy" hello pins will be harder to read from a distance/at a glance in the smaller size (44mm), so please take this into account when ordering! If you have a request or suggestion for wording on a hello pin, I'd love to hear it: https://forms.gle/rpCRWL5KG6FkUqWP6 If you want a quicker turnaround on a custom request, please check out this listing (be sure to read it carefully): https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1439431298/rush-my-request-hello-i-amhello-i-have All my pins have metal backs, but plastic backs are rarely used (only if I run into a supply emergency).

I'm not faking being sick. What I am faking is being normal. Because I'm not normal, I'm not healthy, I'm faking being well.
Well, chronic illness can either be sad, or we can laugh and make fun of how ridiculous it is! Or both. But I like the laughing better. Enjoy these STOP POTS originals. (And the videos have some suggestive language, please watch first before sharing.) Super Broccoli Man Cures POTS! (PG-13) What the Hell is POTS? (PG-13 as well) POTS IS HOT (R rated!) --------------------------------------------------------------------- YOU KNOW YOU HAVE POTS WHEN........ THIS IS AN ONGOING PROJECT! LEAVE YOUR OWN LINES IN THE COMMENTS SECTION AND I'LL ADD THEM IN! I try to find humor in this ridiculous and disabling disease, so ENJOY! 1. You get water-boarded every time you shower from having to sit down. 2. You need a recycling bin next to your bed. 3. Sexy lingerie includes compression stockings. 4. The phrase from The Matrix "There is no spoon" has special meaning for you, and its not a good one. 5. The thought of being in a padded room actually sounds great! 6. The invention of Skype made you do a happy dance while sitting down. And then your heart rate was 160. 7. Your purse has salt packets in it. 8. You actually want to go to school and work. 9. You crave IV Fluids instead of chocolate (but chocolate may be a close second!). 10. A successful night out means you didn't face plant in public, and you're hungover even though you didn't drink. 11. You've been to see more doctors than you have movies in the theater. 12. You want to punch the next person who says, "but you don't look sick!". 13. Being able to shave and wash your hair during the same shower is like a day at the spa, except for the hours in bed after it takes to recover. 14.You have a log of blood pressures and heart rates, and keep asking - is there an app for that? 15. You can share geriatric health care equipment with your grandma. ADDITIONAL QUOTES FROM COMMENTERS: Susan said... You know you have POTS when you nearly pass out from laughing so hard at this post! Love it!!! December 17, 2011 9:05 PM Anonymous said... You know you have POTS when you can wear the shirt with the phrase "Drop it like it's POTS". (Saw this on a site run by a person with POTS that sells shirts with this on it). December 18, 2011 7:28 PM Anonymous said... You know you have POTS when you would rather hear someone else talk about their day (even if all they did was sit in traffic school) than have to discuss yours, because talking takes too much out of you, physically and emotionally.

December 19, 2011 9:13 PM Love to the POTSies, Claire PS - Add your own lines below - I've heard some great ones from fellow POTSies! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MEME - INGFUL Images (see what I did there? and yes, please steal and share if you like) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Someone commented anonymously on my previous post the phrase "Drop it like it's POTS", which I found hilarious for all the obvious reasons. 1. It just works. It rhymes. It's catchy. For anyone not aware, this is a reference to the Snoop and Pharrell song "Drop It Like It's Hot" 2. POTSy people (people with the form of dysautonomia called POTS) drop constantly - as in faint, or fall, or just generally run into things due to feeling dizzy. This makes the phrase even funnier, because it is SO not hot. But most of us don't look sick at all, and are total babes (I've seen all your pics online!). So we are hot dammit, and that makes the doctors not take us seriously - the whole "not looking sick" thing. 3. POTSies can drop it like it's hot, because most have extreme temperature issues that exacerbate their symptoms. So we're dropping because we're hot, and our heart rates increase, some have blood pressure changes - but it's not at all attractive or taking place at the club, since most of us can't tolerate the hotness. Oh...the sweet sweet irony! So in honor of my "chronically awesome" disease, here are some new lyrics: "Drop It Like It's POTS" feat. Claire-dizzle (that's my new rapper name) [Intro] Snooooooooooop.. Snooooooooooop.. [Chorus - Snoop Dogg] When the gimp's in the crib ma Drop it like it's POTS Drop it like it's POTS Drop it like it's POTS When the dizzy try to get at ya Park it like it's POTS Park it like it's POTS Park it like it's POTS And if a doctor get a attitude Pop em like it's hot Pop em like it's hot Pop em like it's hot I got the rolly-ader on my arm and I'm tryin walkin on my own And I feel the best layin flat cause I got it going on [Verse - Pharrell Williams] Uh! I'm a nice patient, with some wack disease See these ice cubes, see these IVs? Eligible for disability, no million dollar boat That's Gatorade that's spilling down your throat The POTSy, exterior don't look sick The interior all jacked up symptoms take your pick I can excercise for you, this can be your Phys. Ed But I may faint on you, callin for a code red Killer wit the heat, POTS know killers in the street Wit the heart rate, make you feel like marathons wit dat beat So don't try to run up on my ear talking all that "you don't look sick" Havin to educate my doctors about why I'm sick When the patient knows more research than the high paid MD You should think about it, take a second Matter fact, you should PAY ME And think before you mess with me [Chorus] When the gimp's in the crib ma Drop it like it's POTS Drop it like it's POTS Drop it like it's POTS When the dizzy try to get at ya Park it like it's POTS Park it like it's POTS Park it like it's POTS And if a doctor get a attitude Pop em like it's hot Pop em like it's hot Pop em like it's hot I got the rolly-ader on my arm and I'm tryin walkin on my own And I feel the best layin flat cause I got it going on [Verse - Snoop Dogg] I'm a spoonie, but y'all knew that Da Big utensil, yeah I had to do that I keep a salty snack hanging out my pocket But only on the left side, yeah that's the way to rock it Ain't no other way to play the game the way I play I fall down so much you thought I was drunk but hey [scratches] "two!" - "one!" - "yep, three!" S-N double O-P, D-O double G I can't fake it, just break it, and when I take it See I specialize in making all the doctors get mistaken So bring your friends, all of y'all come inside We gonna try a new medication, now get live! So don't change the dizzle, turn it up a little I got a living room full of fallin down brizzles Waiting on the Pizzle, the Dizzle and the Shizzle G's to the bizzack, now POTSies here we gizzo [Chorus] When the gimp's in the crib ma Drop it like it's POTS Drop it like it's POTS Drop it like it's POTS When the dizzy try to get at ya Park it like it's POTS Park it like it's POTS Park it like it's POTS And if a doctor get a attitude Pop em like it's hot Pop em like it's hot Pop em like it's hot I got the rolly-ader on my arm and I'm tryin walkin on my own And I roll the best layin flat cause I got it going on [Outro] Snooooooooooop. Snooooooooooop.. The real video/song: I really wish Snoop and Pharrell would do my version...especially since I live right in Pharrell's hometown. The video could have hot chicks laying on couches or in bed with an IV sipping Gatorade. Or dancing with a rollator as a prop, and then falling over. Call me Snoop! I'll have my people set it up :)

This diagram of an argument shows you what happens when trigger thoughts fire in a dry forest of fear, distance, loneliness, and stress. With awareness that a trigger thought is probably not true ("I'm not loved," "I'm disrespected," "I'm being attacked," etc.) you can use one of the four coping skills here to calm, challenge it and get back to "Life Normal" sooner. Avoid adrenaline-fueled emotional flooding, then regrettable behaviors that can cost you your relationship over time. Note: The less positive connecting you do, the more Negative Connecting Cycles you will run--just to feel some sense of connection!
I never dreamed that one day I would wake up sick and I’d never get better. My life wasn’t always this way. I used to be *relatively* healthy. But I’ve always had pain. As a kid, doctor…
