It is frustrating to not be able to do all the things one used to do. Some have found that they do not recover until they have accepted their condition and symptoms and learned how to work-round them without making them worse. It takes strength and discipline to endure the time it takes to recover. Learning how to recognize the very early signs of overload can allow us to do many things. We must be willing to stop the activity and take a break at that first sign.

Rather than overindulging in an activity out of boredom or frustration, you can plan these activities so they are moderated so you do not over-indulge. A quiet game of horse rather than full contact basketball. Setting a time limit on the computer with a break before returning to it. I'm sure you can figure out more moderated activities than you can plan.

My best to you.
