Quiet
Maplesteady energy 5
A gentle week, mostly. 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. Steady.…
Sunday night, four lines
Nixheld energy 4
My buddy noticed something in my journal before I did and asked me a very gentle question about it. Paired up. We text on Sunday nights, four or five lines each, and…
Not writing about this would be dishonest
Ozzyflat energy 1turning point
The nausea has a shape to it now. Thursday teatime it starts, Friday it peaks, Saturday afternoon it lifts. Once I could see the pattern it stopped feeling like…
Laces
Petuagrateful energy 5
Short one tonight. Carried both bags up in one go. Small thing. Wrote it down. Full shift on my feet and my knees did not stop me. That has not happened in about four…
A rough few days
Romysore energy 3turning point
Headache for three days running. It turned out I had barely drunk anything since Tuesday. Water, then a slow improvement, then feeling faintly stupid. Mild. Sore at…
From the bottom
Sadienervous energy 1turning point
The shame about the gap was worse than any side effect I have had. Six people in circle said "yes, me, twice", and it went. Restarted when a shift pattern changed.…
Awake at four
Taviatired energy 2
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 the…
Fewer, heavier
Wystantired but good energy 2
Sitting down to this properly tonight. Kept the two sessions that matter and dropped the two that were vanity. Fewer, heavier, done. Came back after a bad fortnight…
Protein first
Abelsteady energy 5
A brief account of the week. I have found five things I can get down when nothing appeals and I have written them on the fridge. That list is the most useful thing I…
Protein first
Dotsteady energy 1
Well then. Greek yoghurt, eggs, and the limits of both. I have reached the limits of both. Protein first, everything else after. It is not interesting advice and it…
Quiet
Fensteady energy 2
Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then a normal weekend. Steady. That is the whole entry. Flat again. Good.
An unremarkable week
Marnieflat energy 4
I nearly did not write this week because there was nothing in it. Then I thought about how much I have got out of other people's boring weeks. Nothing to report.…
What is your secret
Nualaloved energy 3
Well then. My mother cooks. That is how she says it. So I eat what I can, slowly, and I say thank you, and we manage. It is not a problem to be solved. Somebody asked…

Awake at four
Ravitired energy 5
Notes for the week. Vivid dreams, every night, the sort you have to sit up and shake off. Two other people in circle have the same and none of us can find anything…

Steady
Samfine energy 5
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…
Flat, whole night
Theagrateful energy 1
A brief account of the week. Full shift on my feet and my knees did not stop me. That has not happened in about four years. Up the stairs at work twice without…
Protein first
Ambrosesteady energy 1
Got something with protein in before nine this morning, which meant the rest of the day did not fall apart at four. Spread it across the day instead of trying to do…
A plain question
Ariasteady energy 1
Three things this week. Was undereating without realising. The nurse asked a plain question about what I had actually eaten in the last two days and I heard my own…
She noticed first
Blyheld energy 1
Late, and writing anyway. My buddy noticed something in my journal before I did and asked me a very gentle question about it. Nobody has ever asked me how I was doing…
The limits of yoghurt
Bodhisteady energy 4
Was undereating without realising. The nurse asked a plain question about what I had actually eaten in the last two days and I heard my own answer. Got something with…
Anchored to the shifts
Nellorganised energy 1
Anchored injection day to my shift pattern rather than to the calendar, which solved a problem I had been feeling guilty about for four months. New sharps bin, and a…

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. Steady. That is the whole entry.…
