Summary
Nightjar 18901 lived in a suburban, somewhat rural part of California and could not work because of a chronic illness, with too little energy to do much during the day and symptoms made worse by exercise and exertion. A part-time college attempt had worsened their health, and they were pursuing SSI disability benefits, still waiting for a court date. In their September 2022 post they described ongoing symptoms.

Their path
They say too little about how ill they were at each step to draw it on the severity scale, so the steps are listed as they describe them. Dates are when they posted.
