Spoon Theory Energy Planner for Kinksters: Budget Recovery (PDF Download)

A spoon theory energy planner for kink: price your scenes in spoons, budget the recovery too, and stop discovering mid-scene that you couldn't afford it.

WHY THIS EXISTS
Spoonies already budget showers, groceries, and conversations. Scenes cost spoons too, usually more than anyone admits, and the recovery costs extra. This workbook applies the accounting you already know to the play you actually want, including the part nobody budgets: what it costs tomorrow. Written by an autistic author with a disabled body for The Spice Rack's neurodivergent kink line.

WHAT'S INSIDE
• Spoon theory basics and the energy types: physical, sensory, emotional, and executive spoons spend differently
• Understanding your baseline capacity and the traffic light system for quick daily self-assessment
• Condition-specific profiles, pain management and sexual energy, mental health and emotional energy
• Activity costs and baseline calculations: actually pricing your scenes
• Pre-scene assessment, during-scene energy management, and post-scene recovery tracking
• Partner communication tools, and low-energy scene alternatives for the days the budget is thin
• The spoons-gained section: play that pays energy back instead of only spending it

HOW TO USE IT
Calculate your baseline, price three scenes you actually do, then run the pre-scene assessment before your next one. The tracking pages turn guesses into data within a few weeks.

WHO IT'S FOR
Spoonies who keep paying for Saturday's scene until Wednesday. Kinksters with chronic fatigue, ME/CFS, long COVID, or pain conditions. Partners who want to help budget instead of accidentally overdrawing the account.

WHO IT'S NOT FOR
High-energy players who have never hit the wall. This math is for people whose wallet is small and real.

WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
It budgets recovery, not just the scene, and the spoons-gained section treats play as something that can fund you. Energy planners exist; this is the one that knows what you're spending it on.
