As I'm moving I can feel myself unraveling and
becoming jumbled up again until the circuit is broken. Then I have to start the
whole process again. As my symptoms have worsened the jigsaw pieces have become
smaller, requiring more time to set in place. It is mentally and physically
exhausting.

Solve the jigsaw puzzle and you can move!
My body is like a giant jigsaw puzzle with my limbs,
organs and other body parts all jumbled up. When I want to move I must
painstakingly rearrange the pieces into their correct position; this laborious
mental effort completes the circuit between my mind and my body. Once this
happens something releases in my body and I can move, like a dog straining at
the leach that is suddenly given his freedom.
