I'm worried about her post that she feels like she can "push through it" and "just heal". But I believe it could be misguided positvity and reassurance to the fans that she will continue making music. She should just take her time and be mindful of her health. 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Embach 42,325 Posted July 14, 2023 Years ago, I remember one of my favorite youtubers got diagnosed with CFS too and they said that recovery depends on the person but usually the recovery lasts for 2-3 years. So at this point, I don't care about new music at all. Health comes first. I wish her well, she deserves that! 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well jokes are also supposed to be funny you know. I'm sorry to hear you suffer from CFS and having people afflict themselves with certain diseases is annoying, but we shouldn't assume those things with no further knowlegde and mock/joke about that in my opinion. 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She is just manipulating attention and concern out of her audience... people do this when they have a desperate need to feel special and meaningful, and they talk about themselves like fallen soldiers, that they have suffered so much and the "healing" is such a righteous fight. The majority of people on earth who live with chronic health conditions just have to deal with them and keep working, they don't turn them into a grand personal narrative and a narcissistic effigy of self-victimisation 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The body wants to heal — and what I’ve learned is you have to work with it, not against it.’ girl your privilege is showing again, it’s really great you can see a ‘functional medicine practitioner’ but millions of people simply don’t have the resources to just stop work and stressing about these types of things and ‘heal themselves.’ (edit: for clarification I don’t mean that she should work if she’s ill, everyone should be able to take paid time off if they’re sick) edit: I forgot to mention her saying she was ‘grateful’ for being ill too, this is some LA shit. I live for the day when people will stop harming disabled people by promoting magicians and potion-masters from the middle ages across their platforms.

FkaTwinks 3,135 Posted July 15, 2023 it's so insane to see a fanbase that heavily praises Marina's earlier music (much of which being, in one way or another, about depression & over-exertion & stress) then go on to be dismissive when she's diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome 12 Quote 12 hours ago, Tana Mongeau said: eating pure vagina Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
