เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 20 มิ.ย. 2017
My Name is Elinor and I am a 25 year old sociology student in the UK who has been living with diagnosed chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS/ME) since 2015. I also have Anxiety and Depression, so my life is also influenced by that.
I hope that my channel will be able to educate people with no experience of the illness and make those experiencing chronic illness feel less alone. When I was 16/17 I was really struggling with life and desperately wanted to find a TH-cam channel that I related to to, I hope to be that for someone!
This Channel is all about my CHRONIC ILLNESS with a little bit of lifestyle mixed in !
New Videos go live most Fridays !!

Really nice flat. Congrats🎉
It is so telling that you say you have ‘got through’ the week. Gone are the days of really enjoying holidays - the thought of going abroad now fills me with anxiety as I know how much worse I feel out of my normal environment - I sleep much worse in other beds, the heat affects me as does different food, the tiredness from travelling etc - it’s so different from when I was younger, I went on holiday a lot and loved going abroad - I would now feel I had achieved if I made it to Devon or Cornwall - CFS and Fibromyalgia symptoms for many years - they rob you of the ‘normalness’ of travel
I love your quilt!! It’s beautiful and your place is so cute! Congratulations.
I love that kettle & toaster 😍
Hello there, new here. You look like you are settling in. Its amazing how much can be done in smaller spaces.,😊
My Dad bought me a wheelchair. And I hate it. I've had it in the house for 2 years before I could use it. It was forced and that day I did appreciate the wheelchair even tho I hate it.
I’m sorry you’ve got such difficult feelings about using a wheelchair, they can be so hard to overcome!! If you can i would recommend practicing so it’s easier next time you need it (practice has made such a lot of difference for me). But it’s an aid meant to help you and if it causes more distress than help then it’s ok not to use it!!
If you want to. I’d really really like to see a video like this for 2024 🥰
Not a lot has happened this year to be honest but I’ll have a think!!
I use a walking stick sometimes. Tbh I feel a lot of shame for needing mobility aids. I would love to use a wheelchair sometimes as I suffer with fatigue and pain when walking (from fibromyalgia). There's always a fear of being judged. Ive already had comments about my stick. "You're too young to need one of those". 😅 people are assholes
those kind of comments really suck!! Have you tried a wheelchair out? i definitely recommend!
What a great idea the Rolz is. I love in Canada and am going to find out if they are available here
I love your flat and how you arranged your furniture. Congratulations you have created a beautiful warm home
thankyou!
Really pleased for you looking really nice and it’s so nice your family and friends helped you. My daughter has chronic illness and it gives me hope she will have her own place at some point in her life. Well done. ❤
Hi I've just found your channel. Congratulations on moving into your flat. I'm nearly 54 and have M.E, Fibromyalgia, Anxiety, Depression, compressed nerves in my lower back and other medical conditions. I basically stay upstairs at home as that's where our bathroom is. I attempt the stairs on a good day if I want a cold drink (as I'm not safe using the kettle). People don't understand our struggles. I go out once a week if I'm well enough with my husband. I have to use a crutch but notice People looking at me (because i don't look ill, although I walk slow) which makes me anxious. Wishing you all the very best in your flat. Please take care x
Congratulations Elinor! Where do you shop for your cottage core outfits? Your fashion style is amazing! ❤
Wow. I have chronic pain and struggle with many of the same things you do. My memory is affected off and on. I think I have tried every single kind of note, notebooks, planners, clip boards, and datebooks that exist to try to get back to the organized person I was most of my life. I never tried a bullet journal because I got stressed out even thinking about it. The catagories that you use would be perfect for me. I’m going to get out a pretty notebook and play this video very slowly and copy your ideas. Thank you so much. 💕💕💕. I love pinks and lavender also.
👍❤😊
What is your chronic illness? So happy you your own home😊
I too have the same octopus. I call him Barry.
Mines called Peggy!
Flat looks nice.❤
Love how you dressed it! Much happiness in your lovely new home💚🙏💚
i have fibro and days and days i ordered takeaway now i used my slow cooker so i could make meals for now and have leftovers that can be frozen or you could make up bags to dump in the slow cooker which have already been pre-prepared. now in 2024 i got a russell hobb multi cooker and it is a game changer it has 8 different settings
I’ve been thinking about trying a slow cooker!
Happy Birthday. Your flat is very nice and you've done a good job with it. Enjoy!
Love your new flat Elinor and as a new subscriber I am looking forward to seeing it develop, you have done an amazing job already, happy birthday ❤
Good for you! You have so many colorful things. You aoartment is so cheerful.
Darling little place. Maybe get a little kitty?
Hello I love your channel , I’m currently waiting for a possible cfs diagnosis and have found it so nice to be able to follow along with your life . Also I live in a town so close to bath I couldn’t believe when I found out you live there.
I love the colors U decorated your place with.
You need to protect your Privacy
Thats an amazing transformation, from when you 1st showed it empty, to how you made it looks so cosy and homely. As someone with fibro and cfs, living alone helps me.
Well done love seeing you do it for yourself ❤I chose to do it alone also & best decision ever made! Love to see people doing it for themselves not having to be coupled up all the time ! I do date but I send them home ! Love my independent life ❤
Belated happy birthday, and best wishes on your lovely new place! 💕
Happy birthday and congratulations! I’ve been a subscriber since I became ill with ME/CFS 4 years ago. I love watching your videos. The divider with the decorations and curtains on it is super cute. I’m a huge Barbie girl and have my dolls on display so I love seeing others showing off their dolls proudly. Moving is a huge accomplishment for anyone but ESPECIALLY if you are ill, so amazing job!🎉❤
Just stumbled across your channel- your flat is super cute - congratulations
When i am having a bad pain day i find it easier to walk down stairs backwards. If i would fall i would be falling into the stairs not DOWN the stairs. I also wear men's coats because they are made with loads of pockets. It means i no longer carry a purse, phone in one pocket, keys and money in another and some coats have huge inside pockets where mail or magazines easily fit. Love your new place!
Do you have any support coming to help with daily living tasks eg support workers?
And here's me looking to buy a vintage walking stick just because I like it, not required but want to bring it back into fashion lol
Happy birthday ❤
I love it! Congrats on your new digs😀
Adorable!
I got my vanity, mirror, and stool in JYSK for £59
Your home is lovely. Love your Barbies on the shelves with your books.
You decorated so beautifully! So happy for you, there’s no better feeling like having your own place. ❤
Very pretty, Chronic illness is no picnic...looks just lovely....♥️🇮🇪
The flat looks lovely 😍 When you are on the lookout for the bed, vanity unit and coffee table, I recommend you look for ones with storage, I've found that helpful in my smaller space. My coffee table is a trunk, and my bed has space underneath where I can store things I don't need very often. Good luck!
I think you did a good job getting your home the way you wanted. I like your place its really cozy.
Nice little flat. Being chronically ill and living alone is always a challenge, my daughter suffers from diabetes 1 and chronic tiredness, She chose to live alone in a 5th floor flat here in Sweden. I worry every day, but she is almost 30 and i need to let go. vi talk everyday and she stays over sometimes, so nice. Our relationship is much better now. Good luck with your life ..🏚
What do you do for work?xx
i have m.e cfs like you it's 2025 and diagnosed recently and i have more good days where i am able to function and then i get the days when it's like i have not slept but jeez the pain and exoskeleton strain - osteomalacia my hope would be to purchase a motorised scooter as i DON'T have people around me; it's mainly my lower back aches on walking short nano distances
I'm new to your channel and I really like what you did!! Happy New to you!!
You were very brave. Traveling and airports in particular are very stressful. You are very knowledgeable of your emotions. That is impressive. Allow yourself grace.
Bath was where Jane Austin lived later in her life. Your flat is lovely, and perfect for 1.
