  ChronicallyMe — Authority: 410
  My Clutter Buster Angel came for another sort out session this afternoon. We tackled the art supplies and materials.  It wasn’t quite a frightening as I thought.  There’s still a lot of stuff but now I’m more assured it’s stuff I need, stuff I want and stuff I use.Thanks to those who told me how good [...]

  ChronicallyMe — Authority: 410
  Feeling shattered. Most week days mornings since I changed my amitriptyline dose to 30mg I’ve felt utterly shattered in the mornings.My optimum sleep seems to be currently 11 hours. Growler has to get ready to go to work and try as he might I stir as he gets ready. Typically 9 hours sleep.  Which should be [...]

  ChronicallyMe — Authority: 410

  Never that Easy — Authority: 129
  and all day long Ive been thinking its Thursday. Both are Lil Girl days, which can explain some of the confusion, but one comes later in the week, meaning that I have the possibility of four days off in a row. Today is not that day.

  ChronicallyMe — Authority: 410
  What a lot of letters. But it is (as expected) a no from my NHS GP for prescribing LDN for ME/CFS.She was apologetic, bless her.  But her hands are tied.One good thing came from it though (which I need to back up with some bits of paper) and that was to let her know that the [...]

  Never that Easy — Authority: 129
  I turned 30 earlier this year, and, in the months leading up to that day, I was getting a whole lot of "Is turning thirty going to bother you?" "Do you think youre going to freak out?" "Does being 30 make you feel OLD?" type questions. I didnt think 30 was anything to freak out over, and told people so, even if I ...
