  • Awake at four

    Tam16 May 2025foggy energy 4

    Three things this week. The sleep has changed shape rather than improved. Different, not better, and I cannot yet tell whether I mind. Slept through. Whole night, no…

  • How are you doing on a Wednesday

    Tinuke16 May 2025held energy 5

    Paired up. We text on Sunday nights, four or five lines each, and it has quietly become the most reliable thing in my week. She had a bad week and I had a fine one,…

  • Nothing to report

    Wystan16 May 2025steady energy 2

    Sitting down to this properly tonight. Nothing to report. Writing it down anyway, on the theory that a journal made only of eventful weeks would give a false…

  • Somebody new

    Yannick16 May 2025warm energy 2

    Notes for the week. Somebody new tonight, terrified, exactly where I was in the spring. I said the thing that had been said to me and watched it land. The facilitator…

  • The list on the fridge

    Zeb16 May 2025steady energy 1

    Three things this week. Greek yoghurt, eggs, and the limits of both. I have reached the limits of both. Spread it across the day instead of trying to do it all at…

  • Anchored to the shifts

    Lucas15 May 2025organised energy 2

    New sharps bin, and a plan for what happens to it when I move in September. Anchored injection day to my shift pattern rather than to the calendar, which solved a…

  • Nothing

    Mina15 May 2025stubborn energy 2turning point

    Short one tonight. I wanted to stop this week. Said so out loud in circle, which I had not planned to. Six people said they had been there. Nobody tried to fix it.…

  • Dreams

    Bram15 May 2025rested energy 1

    The sleep has changed shape rather than improved. Different, not better, and I cannot yet tell whether I mind. Waking at four again. Not anxious, just awake, lying…

  • Nine minutes

    Bridie15 May 2025frustrated energy 1

    Left with a printout I could not read and no idea what to be worried about. Taking it to bloodwork-buddies on Thursday. Took the diary in. She read it properly, which…

  • Quiet

    Cato15 May 2025flat energy 3

    This week: No news. The dog is well, the weather has been foul, and I have taken my medication on the correct day for the eleventh week running. An unremarkable week.…

  • The question I had been avoiding

    Clemmie15 May 2025heard energy 1

    Nine minutes. I took three written questions and got three answers, which is the best return I have ever had from an appointment. Asked the question I had been…

  • An unremarkable week

    Dev15 May 2025fine energy 1

    Recording this for the record. Steady. That is the whole entry. An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most of it looks like. No…

  • Stayed for the company

    Gil15 May 2025warm energy 4

    Recording this for the record. Went for the practical answers and stayed for the company, which I gather is what everybody does. The facilitator stopped the room when…

  • An unremarkable week

    Gilly15 May 2025steady energy 5

    Well then. An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most of it looks like. No news. The dog is well, the weather has been foul, and I…

  • Quiet

    Harri15 May 2025fine energy 2

    Notes for the week. Nothing to report. Writing it down anyway, on the theory that a journal made only of eventful weeks would give a false impression of the whole…

  • Anchored to the shifts

    Hattie15 May 2025organised energy 5

    Late, and writing anyway. Anchored injection day to my shift pattern rather than to the calendar, which solved a problem I had been feeling guilty about for four…

  • Dreams

    Juniper15 May 2025tired energy 1

    Right. Repeat study came back and the apnoea is much reduced. Ten years of that mask. Slept through. Whole night, no waking. It has been so long that I lay there in…

  • Nine minutes

    Mo15 May 2025heard energy 3

    Three things this week. Nine minutes. I took three written questions and got three answers, which is the best return I have ever had from an appointment. Left with a…

  • Stayed for the company

    Pippa15 May 2025warm energy 4

    Sitting down to this properly tonight. Circle tonight. Eight of us, an hour, and about eleven minutes of actual information. The rest was the point. Went for the…

  • I nearly did not write

    Prue15 May 2025fine energy 5

    Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then a normal weekend. No news. The dog is well, the weather has been foul, and I have taken my…

  • Nine minutes

    Saoirse15 May 2025brisk energy 5

    A locum who had clearly read nothing. I was polite, I got what I needed, and I have booked with my own GP for next month. Asked the question I had been avoiding for…

  • Paired

    Anna14 May 2025held energy 4

    Nobody has ever asked me how I was doing on a Wednesday before. My buddy noticed something in my journal before I did and asked me a very gentle question about it.…

  • I nearly did not write

    Matt14 May 2025flat energy 1

    This week: Nothing to report. Writing it down anyway, on the theory that a journal made only of eventful weeks would give a false impression of the whole thing. I…

  • Two lines a day

    Ash14 May 2025pleased energy 1turning point

    Right. Tested three cool bags against a thermometer this weekend because I am that person. Results written up for the travel circle. Locker contents, published.…
