When the Conditions Start With E: The Everyday Griefs We Learn to Endure

Not all griefs come with goodbyes. Some come with routines that never return to normal.

E-conditions can feel like being trapped in your own body.
Epilepsy, eczema, endometriosis—these don’t always look dramatic from the outside.
But on the inside? There’s pain, exhaustion, shame, and fear that tomorrow will look just like today.

This section isn’t just about learning what these conditions are.
It’s about seeing what they do—to schedules, to bodies, to relationships, to hope.

"See It. Name It. Stand Against It."

Grief and Essential Tremor: When Your Hands Won’t Hold Still
