    So tired after a short time out

    I spent about an hour in town, all I did was pop to our library, and the rest of the day Ive felt so sleepy, you'd think Id had a busy, chaotic day! is this because of the old adrenaline? does your body work on this stuff even when your not particularly anxious?

    So you will get there. Just ride it out.

    Hope you enjoyed your library trip!
