Stamina Struggle

Stamina Struggle

What if your energy worked like a video game health bar—or even a pizza you only get a few slices of each day? In this episode, we dive into what it really means to live with limited energy while navigating severe mental illness.

We share how our conditions shape not just how much energy we have, but how quickly it disappears—and how much more it takes just to get through everyday tasks. From the invisible tug-of-war between mental and physical energy to the constant challenge of deciding where those precious reserves go, we open up about the reality of trying to function in chaotic, demanding lives.

Along the way, we tell personal stories about burning out too fast, getting it right (sometimes), and the strategies we’ve experimented with—what’s helped, what hasn’t, and what we’re still figuring out.

Coping Chaos is hosted and produced by KJ Cervi and Leia Williams. Audio mixed and edited by KJ Cervi. Our theme song is by Lucas Cervi and Leia Williams. Artwork is created by Lucas Cervi.
