When I first started using mobility aids like walking sticks and wheelchair I struggled with my confidence and subsequently with making fashion choices that felt authentically me!
As my courage and pride in my disability has grown so has my confidence in trying out more creative and colourful outfits and trying to think outside my comfort zone when styling myself.
I hope this video can help you to feel confident in the use of mobility aids as fashion accessories and extensions of your self expression!!
How do you make sure that your mobility aids reflect your style?
Reminder: everyone with ME/CFS is different! So you or someone you know might have a very different experience with ME/CFS than I do at the moment! Also, remember that chronic conditions such as these can change dramatically over time, so my life may look very different to this in the future (and has be A LOT worse in the past).
