Default I can relate

I personally have got to point that if I get to fatigue from pushing I will fall out meaning my body wont let me push until I recharge with sleep...If I was to add stress and push I don't know, I feel like I might pay for it for a few days....just my two cents...I found if I go to MD Appts 3 days out of the week and just do errands and clean house I am wipeout!

I ask my psy if I could get something besides all the rest,vitamins,food and exercise to give me a boost....I constantly feel like Im dragging my feet now.I got reply from MD of NO lol

after a year im starting to realize rest isnt gonna do anything for me anymore. im gonna start just doing whatever i want whenever i think maybe my brain is in slow mode and needs so experience to break through and be normal agian. does that make sense?

like if i feel fatigue im gonna just push through it....if my eyes hurt looking at the computer im gonna keep looking at it. do you think i can get to the point where my brain just gets used to the lights/fatigue agian and i wont even notice it anymore?
