Hi Stacey,

The fatigue you are experiencing seems to be pretty normal after what you have gone through. Your brain has been through a HUGE ordeal and it takes time to recover. There is no time limit on these things - your body will do what it needs to do when it needs to do it and not before. PTSD also is not an uncommon thing to have - especially after a rupture. Facing your own mortality is really confronting and scary, and your body and your mind are now trying to process and accept what has happened. Maybe talking to a professional therapist who has experience in brain traumas may be really helpful for you to identify just what it is that you are thinking and feeling, and helping you to accept it and then be able to integrate it into your life and be able to move forward. Just know that you are not alone - be kind and gentle with yourself as you heal.

Hugs,

Nat xx
