I've seen other people describe it as hit points/life points in a gaming sense. It basically describes how people with chronic physical/mental illness have to allocate their energy and activities because they can't always do as much.

What a wonderful description. Never thought of being a 'spoonie'. But it makes sense because by the end of the busy day I'm mostly comatose.



Thank you for that, and your welcome!
