Tomorrow starts Celiac Disease Awareness Month.

And I’ve been thinking about this for a while.
Because “awareness” sounds simple…
but celiac disease isn’t.

Most people think it just means not eating bread or pasta.
But when you actually live with it?
You realize it’s a lot more complex than that.

There’s a lot people don’t see:

• the mental gymnastics of trying to figure out if you got glutened… or if it was something else
• the quiet fear that you’re not gluten-free enough and it’s somehow your fault
• the social weirdness of being the one who brings your own food everywhere

And that’s before we even get into the science.
So this month, I’m going to talk about it.

I’ll be sharing posts designed to:

• educate
• challenge what people think they know
• and occasionally make you laugh at something that is objectively not that funny

And I’ll still have regular FatCeliac posts too—
the deeper stuff, the science, the “cool kids with celiac” conversations.

(You know who you are.)

Also—yes, I’m working on a few tools to help manage this whole thing a little better. More on that soon.

If you’re here, you’re in the right place.

It’s going to be a fun, complex, slightly chaotic 31 days.

What’s one thing you wish people understood about celiac disease?
