Has anyone ever used spoon theory for personal reasons or to be able to show others your pain? (lemmy.world)

This isn’t quite the original one, but I guess people need it simplified.

I mean, you can „borrow“ spoons from the next day, but you’ll have to even pay interest. You usually cannot save a spoon for the next day. And the spoons you have available vary from day to day. I guess that is above the understanding for those who have unlimited (edit: autocorrect souls) spoons.
