Chronically Cece

Trigger Warning: This episode contains candid discussions about OCD, intrusive thoughts, eating disorders, and mental health struggles. Please take care while listening—and feel free to pause, skip, or come back when you're ready. Your well-being comes first. 💜 This week on Chronically Cece, we're diving headfirst into the beautiful, messy world of mental health—because nothing says "self-care" like overthinking your overthinking. Cece gets real about living with eating disorders, the joys (read: chaos) of therapy, and those times her OCD tried to give unsolicited advice. Spoiler: it wasn’t helpful. Expect honesty, laughs, and the occasional mental health plot twist.

Join Felicia as she takes you through some of her most practical and surprisingly fun life hacks for living with chronic illness. Forget the Pinterest-perfect tips—this episode is all about real-world solutions that bring comfort, joy, and a little bit of humor into daily life. From the power of the perfect cozy blanket to turning compression socks into a statement piece, Felicia shares her tried-and-true tricks for surviving (and thriving) with chronic pain. Plus, you won’t want to miss her ode to hydration, featuring the legendary Stanley Elphaba cup. Tune in for life hacks that might just change the way you approach your day, and hear how we can all help each other out with our best tips for navigating the chronic life!

Hey there! Welcome to the podcast where we take chronic illness, laughter and a good old dose of Lyrica and roll them into one. If you're living with fibromyalgia, joint pain, muscle aches, or any of the other joys our bodies love to throw at us, then you're in the right place. I'm your host, Felicia, and this podcast is where we embrace the ridiculousness of pain. Because what else can you do when your body decides to throw a tantrum at 3 a.m.? Let's be honest, we've all had those moments waking up and thinking, okay, what's going to hurt today? Will it be my back? Is it my knees? Oh, it's my feet, but just the heel of my foot. Fantastic. Instead of crying about it, we're here to laugh through the chaos. You'll hear stories from me. Guests who get it in the occasional rant about how my knees think they're auditioning for a role in a horror movie. We'll talk about the good, the bad, and the downright ridiculous moments that come with living with chronic pain. I'll share how to survive a fibro flare without turning into a human puddle, and I'll help you find the humor in every ache. And maybe, just maybe, give you a little hope that you can make it through the day. As long as you've got your Lyrica or any other anti inflammatory grab your heating pads, your favorite snack and join me for some laughs, real talk, and a reminder that yes, pain is inevitable, but so are the laughs. This is chronically CC, the only podcast where we laughed because of the pain. New episodes drop every Friday. You can join the Spoonie squad over at patreon.com/chronicallycece.
