The Year in Review on RAHealthCentral

Year-in-review articles all around in this. Personally, I’m sort of addicted to the things, so it was a pleasure to write a version of this phenomenon for RAHealthCentral: 

“We have come to the end of another year, and I can’t be the only person who feels it went by in six months instead of 12. Here on RAHealthCentral, we have packed a lot of life, a lot of talk, and a lot of information into 2016. It was all under the overarching umbrella of our annual theme Your #ChronicLife with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), which is about openly talking about the reality of living with chronic conditions. Please join me as I share memories of some of our most popular posts.

Relationships and sex

We kept it real when we wrote about how your chronic illness can affect relationships and sex. In an interview with Kira Lynne, we discussed dating and relationships. Anna shared tips to nurture your relationship, and Leslie shared her story of what happens when your condition contributes to a breakup.

Sex is an important part of a relationship, but chronic illness can present some unique challenges to physical intimacy. We spoke to Kirsten Schultz, the creator of Chronic Sex, a place for you to feel safe in talking about sex and chronic illness. Along the same theme, I also shared tips on masturbation with chronic pain and how to make pleasing yourself easier.”
