Eight weeks ago I was genuinely frightened. Like, sitting on the bathroom floor at 3am googling things I probably shouldn't have been googling, frightened. So I just want to put this here for anyone who's in that place right now. I'm not going to tell you what to do because honestly I barely know what's worked for me vs what was just time passing. But things are quieter. Sleep is not perfect but it's sleep. The flushes at night are fewer. My mood last week was... recognisably mine again? Which sounds like nothing but felt enormous. The main thing I changed practically was breakfast. Boring as it sounds, I started eating the same thing most mornings. Eggs, or Greek yoghurt with some seeds, something with protein basically. I stopped skipping it when I was rushing. I don't know if it's doing anything or if my body just likes the predictability. Probably both. Movement-wise I've been walking most days and doing a bit of strength stuff twice a week. Again, not telling anyone that's the answer, it just fits my life at the moment. I've got a follow-up with my GP next month and I'm going in with notes this time. Sleep is genuinely better so I want to say that clearly. But the brain fog is still there more than I'd like and I want to actually talk about it properly instead of forgetting to mention it in the ten minutes I get. That's the bit that still needs attention. Anyway. If you're in the 3am googling phase, I just wanted you to know it doesn't necessarily stay like that. x
