Summary
Bluebell 94208 wrote of being ill without a diagnosis, filling days with low-budget hobbies, arts and crafts, films, music, audiobooks and manga, and sitting on the back porch for hours enjoying the weather. A pet cat, calls with a friend and small treats like a nice drink helped them cope, and they distracted themselves by framing it as a vacation from work. They expected to eventually get a diagnosis and feel better.
