Idea being don't allow anything to get painful, stop as soon as you think its getting to be too much.

It wore me out. I can't even explain how exhausted I was from that one hour. I couldn't talk straight when I got home. I was dizzy. I slept for hours. And then went to bed earlier than usual and slept straight through the whole night for the first time in forever.

It did give me a flare that night, which I have to report to him, because he doesn't want any sessions to give me flares. He says that will mean we went too far.

Anyway I'll be going three times a week... this is going to be something!
