I've gotten really far along in my recovery, so it's interesting to read that, as I was not told that. In my experience, I have to be careful about pushing myself too hard, and I think anyone trying to tell me differently is wrong. I've had several setbacks by doing too much. I find I can do things that are taxing but I have to rest afterward. I say, sure, take her advice to some degree, but if you start feeling worse, take a break. Listen to what your body is trying to tell you. If I start getting a headache or getting really dizzy, I don't keep at something. I take a break and then continue what I was doing when I'm feeling a bit better. That's just my two cents!
