Heat-induced neurological dysregulation When it's really hot, your body and brain are working harder just to keep your temperature stable (homeostasis) which means less capacity for everything else It's what happens when your whole system is running hot, literally Name it. Heat rage is real!
New research out & it matters. “Beyond bendy joints: number of variant connective tissue features predicts neurodivergent characteristics in hypermobile individuals with anxiety” 👉 www.nature.com/articles/s44... @bendybrain.bsky.social @lisaquadt.bsky.social #BSMS #ArthritisUK #MQ

Who cares for the carers? Do you feel doubly jeopardised, caring for someone while also managing your own disability, chronic illness, neurodivergence, hypermobility, mental health, employment? Too often carers are expected to keep going regardless of the impact #CarersWeek @carers-week.bsky.social
