Dysautonomia invited a few friends to the Halloween party, and now they're all showing up in costume! 👻🎃

POTS, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) have joined Dysautonomia for four spooky designs featuring symptoms that are a little too real.

From heart rate jump scares and joints that won't stay put to mast cells causing chaos, these hauntings have plenty of tricks up their sleeves.

I love creating designs that bring a little humor to the experiences people living with chronic illness know all too well. A good laugh and a little more understanding? I'll happily create both.

If you missed the Dysautonomia & Friends Pick Your Haunting carousel, check out my previous post to see all 12 spooky symptoms for each condition. Find your haunting and share it to help spread awareness!

🎃 Halloween is almost here! If you're hoping to wear one of these designs on October 31, order by October 17th to give it the best chance of arriving in time. Of course, if you're spooky year-round, these shirts don't have an expiration date. 👻

Find all four designs in my shop on tees, long sleeves, sweatshirts, and hoodies.

👻 PICK YOUR HAUNTING: The Dysautonomia & Friends Edition! 🎃

Dysautonomia invited a few friends to the Halloween party, and apparently, they all brought their own tricks. 😂

POTS, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) have joined the haunting!

Why these friends? Because POTS, EDS, and MCAS are frequently discussed together in the chronic illness community, with many people living with more than one of these conditions.

Of course, Dysautonomia is much bigger than POTS alone. There are several different forms of autonomic nervous system dysfunction, each with its own experiences. EDS also includes 13 recognized types, and the symptoms and challenges vary widely.

These four designs are just a starting point!

👻 Didn't find your specific haunting? Tell me what condition you'd love to see added in the future. Whether it's another form of Dysautonomia, a specific type of EDS, or something else entirely, I want to hear from you!

I love learning about the different experiences within these communities, and your suggestions help me decide which designs to create next.

Find your haunting, share your slide, and help make these often misunderstood conditions a little more visible this spooky season! 🎃

The immune system has been up to some witchcraft, and apparently, it's bringing friends. 🧙‍♀️👻

The Autoimmune & Inflammatory A-Haunting collection is dressed up for spooky season, featuring Celiac Disease, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Sjögren's, Multiple Sclerosis, Lupus, Ankylosing Spondylitis, Hashimoto's, Type 1 Diabetes, Ulcerative Colitis, and Crohn's Disease.

Ten conditions. Ten Halloween-inspired designs you can wear during the spooky season. Plenty of symptoms that nobody invited to the party. 😂

I love finding ways to bring a little humor to the very real experiences these communities deal with every day. Sometimes a shirt can make someone laugh, help them feel seen, or start a conversation that helps someone else understand.

🎃 Halloween heads-up! We are closing in on the final days if ordering if you're hoping to wear your haunting for Halloween. Ordering soon gives your shirt the best chance of arriving in time. No need to worry about the calendar if you're a year-round spooky soul, though!

Find your haunting in my shop on tees, long sleeves, sweatshirts, and hoodies.

Which one would you wear? What additional autoimmune or inflammatory conditions should I add next?

👻 PICK YOUR HAUNTING: The Autoimmune & Inflammatory Edition!

Apparently, the immune system didn't need any help getting into the Halloween spirit.

Celiac Disease, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Sjögren's, Multiple Sclerosis, Lupus, Ankylosing Spondylitis, Hashimoto's, Type 1 Diabetes, Ulcerative Colitis, and Crohn's Disease have all joined the haunting!

Ten conditions, ten spooky designs, and 12 little illustrations on each one showing the very real symptoms and experiences that don't disappear when Halloween is over.

Some of the phrases might make you laugh. Others might feel a little too familiar.

🎃 Find your haunting and share it to help others understand what living with your condition looks like. If you're managing more than one of these conditions, you might have a whole haunted house on your hands!

All ten designs are part of my A-Haunting Halloween collection at Unified By Design Shop, with more hauntings still to come.

Yesterday you picked your haunting. Today, you get to wear it! 👻

Missed yesterday's Pick Your Haunting post? Head to my previous post to see all 12 spooky little symptoms for each condition. Find yours and share it to help spread awareness!

Eight neurological conditions, eight spooky designs, and a whole lot of symptoms that definitely weren't invited to the Halloween party.

Migraine, Chiari, IIH, Epilepsy, Hydrocephalus, FND, Narcolepsy, and Idiopathic Hypersomnia are all dressed up and ready to haunt!

🎃 A little Halloween heads-up: There are only a few days left to order if you're hoping to wear your haunting for Halloween! Order soon to give your shirt the best chance of arriving in time. Of course, if you're a year-round spooky soul, there's no rush.

Find your favorite A-Haunting design in my shop on tees, long sleeves, sweatshirts, and hoodies.

👻 PICK YOUR HAUNTING: The Neurological Edition! 🎃

Which one knows you a little TOO well?

Migraine, Chiari, Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH), Epilepsy, Hydrocephalus, Functional Neurological Disorder (FND), Narcolepsy, and Idiopathic Hypersomnia have all joined the haunting this Halloween!

Each design puts a spooky little spin on 12 very real experiences that come with these conditions. Some might make you laugh. Others might hit a little too close to home.

Find your haunting, share it with someone who needs a better understanding of what you live with, or tag a friend whose condition made the lineup.

All eight designs are part of my new A-Haunting Halloween collection at Unified By Design Shop.

More hauntings are coming! 👻

A little Sunday reminder for the chronically exhausted. 🍂

Rest doesn't have to be earned by pushing yourself until there's nothing left.

The laundry can wait. The plans can change. The to-do list doesn't have to get finished today.

You deserve rest even when you haven't checked a single thing off that list.

A little love from my new Cute and Chronically Exhausted fall design. 💕

For World Mental Health Day, I wanted to share something a little more personal. 💕

Through Unified By Design Shop, I've had the privilege of getting to know so many of you and hearing stories that have stayed with me long after our conversations ended.

I hope these words remind you how much you matter, especially on the days when life feels particularly hard.

And if someone came to mind while reading the last slide, please share it with them. Sometimes knowing someone is thinking of you can mean more than we realize.

P.S. The sunset photos are from an evening I spent in Arkansas this summer. Mother Nature was showing off.

With love,
Laura

When October is all tricks and no treats... 🔪🎃

Last year, someone purchased my Out of Spoons and Feeling Stabby shirt to wear as a Halloween costume and help educate people about Spoon Theory. I thought that was pretty brilliant. 😂

For anyone unfamiliar, Spoon Theory is a way of explaining how everyday activities use up limited energy for many people living with chronic illness or disability.

A little dark humor, a low-key Halloween costume, and an opportunity to start a conversation about limited spoons.

If this one speaks to your current spoon supply, you can find it in my shop. 🖤

🍂 Fall is here, and for some people living with chronic illness, the changing season brings more than cooler weather and pumpkin spice.

Have you heard of the October Slide?

It's a term used in the chronic illness community to describe the increase or change in symptoms that some people experience as summer turns to fall.

I spent some time learning more about the October Slide, and what stood out to me was how frustrating it must be to finally find a routine that helps manage your symptoms, only to have things change again.

The research is still mixed, and not everyone experiences the October Slide. For some, cooler weather actually brings welcome relief.

My new Cute and Chronically Exhausted fall design inspired me to explore this topic, and I hope these little characters help make a complicated experience easier to understand and share.

Does fall tend to make your symptoms better, worse, or a little of both? I'd love to hear what this season is like for you.

And if someone in your life could use a better understanding of the October Slide, please share this post. 🍁
