Omschrijving

The Bingo Card of Chronic Illness: Have You Tried This? is a sharp, funny, deeply validating look at the endless parade of advice chronically ill people face—from yoga to kale smoothies, positive thinking to prayer circles, supplements to "just stop talking about it."

With humor, science, and compassion, J White unpacks the myths behind the most common "miracle cures" and explores why society is so quick to offer fixes instead of understanding. Through personal insight and community stories, the book dives into:

Why "Have you tried yoga?" lands like a punch instead of support What science really says about food, supplements, and "manifesting health" The hidden financial, social, and physical barriers sick people navigate How toxic positivity masquerades as kindness The emotional toll of stigma, invisibility, and silence Where spirituality and energy work can help—without pretending they cure disease Why pacing beats pushing, and how "exercise more" became harmful medical advice

Blending lived experience with research and dark humor, this book is a survival guide for anyone living with chronic illness—or loving someone who is. It's a reminder that you're not alone, you're not imagining it, and you're not failing because you haven't found the "right" cure yet.

Perfect for spoonies, caregivers, disabled readers, clinicians wanting perspective, and anyone tired of the phrase "Have you tried…?"
