I was wondering if anybody else has experienced this?
Over the last several weeks I'd really started to make some progress with the PA's and depression.
My son started nursery in September and the thought of taking him there every day and being inside a room of screaming toddlers and all the parents wanting to 'chat' was reasonably intimidating. I pushed on though, and for the most part it all went fine and I was able to take him there virtually every day. I'd also started part time work again after not being able to work (or leave home most days) for several months, and that seemed to progress well also. I do remember feeling extreme pressure during the last few weeks though, based on the little things like getting him teeth brushed and out the door on time.
I'm not quite sure when things changed, but all of a sudden I find myself completely and utterly exhausted virtually all day, every day. Dizziness is as bad as it's ever been and my sleeping habits are as bad as ever.
Curiously, I don't feel particularly anxious for the most part, and even if I do have a major trigger I'm almost able to shrug off a full blown 180bpm epic.
That leaves me with the question, why do I feel so physically bad at the moment?
I'm eating right, don't smoke or drink, never took any meds and really do try to keep a lid on the anxiety and depression with breathing and mindfulness.
I have read on a number of websites that it can be very common to physically crash when recovery starts, as your body has a lot less go juice (anxiety hormones) to feed off?
Any insight would be appreciated :)
