Default When the body talks.. do you listen?

The saying I've heard from my doc's over the years is listen to your body. Do what it's telling you. If your tired, take a nap. If your sick, rest, etc etc. Well, my body has been talking to me and I have been ignoring it. If Im tired, I just keep pushing myself til I drop, no nap for me. Im so tired of feeling lazy because of the fatigue, I try to just keep going. Well, I have finally decided to listen to it. I am giving into what my body is saying it needs. I have found I can sleep for 12 hours straight, get up for an hour and be totally ready for bed again and sleep another 4 hours. My appetite is low, and drinking fluids is a joke. Im never thirsty anymore. The hug seems to be creeping back into my life. I have been having problems with my shots. Every shot is a lump, or bruise, or welt. My body says "give me a break", so a break it will get. The time has come to stop ignoring what the body is crying for. Do you pay attention or ignore it and push on??
