An hour on the floor
Maevepleased energy 2
Right. Sat on the floor and played for an hour, and then got up. That was the entire reason I started, and I have now done it. Tied my own laces standing up. I am…
An unremarkable week
Tansysteady energy 1
Right. 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. Quiet.…
An unremarkable week
Maplefine energy 3
Steady. That is the whole entry. An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most of it looks like. No news. The dog is well, the…
My mother cooks
Ossianloved energy 4
Late, and writing anyway. 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.…
I nearly did not write
Patricksteady energy 4
A quiet 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.…
A different shape
Sadierested energy 2
Ten minutes then I am asleep. The sleep has changed shape rather than improved. Different, not better, and I cannot yet tell whether I mind. Repeat study came back…
No mask
Stefanfoggy energy 3
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…
My mother cooks
Lucaswarm energy 2
Somebody asked what my secret was and I froze completely. Still working out what I want to say to that. A wedding. Three courses I could not face, a table of people…
Two flights of stairs
Colpleased energy 5
Quickly, before bed. Sat on the floor and played for an hour, and then got up. That was the entire reason I started, and I have now done it. Carried both bags up in…
She read the diary
Kaifrustrated energy 3
Asked the question I had been avoiding for eleven years. She answered it in about ninety seconds and was completely unbothered. Left with a printout I could not read…
A printout I cannot read
Marthabrisk energy 3
She reduced one of my other medications. I asked her twice whether that was really allowed. Left with a printout I could not read and no idea what to be worried…
Unremarkable
Nadiarelieved energy 5
Week in order: Three years of results side by side. A trend rather than a moment, which is apparently the only thing worth looking at. Everything stable. She said…
A plain question
Nixsteady 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. Protein first,…
Both bags, one go
Saoirsegrateful energy 2
Sitting down to this properly tonight. Carried both bags up in one go. Small thing. Wrote it down. Tied my own laces standing up. I am aware of how that sounds and I…
Six labelled boxes
Stellanorganised energy 3
Batch cooked on a good day for the bad days. Six labelled boxes in the freezer and a great deal of smugness. Small logistics win: worked out where the pen actually…
An unremarkable week
Zoëfine energy 1
Ten minutes then I am asleep. Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then a normal weekend. I nearly did not write this week because there…
She reduced it
Ariafrustrated energy 4
Week in order: Asked the question I had been avoiding for eleven years. She answered it in about ninety seconds and was completely unbothered. A locum who had clearly…
An unremarkable week
Minnieflat energy 1
This week: 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…
Both bags, one go
Zebquietly delighted energy 4
Week in order: Full shift on my feet and my knees did not stop me. That has not happened in about four years. Slept flat. Whole night. Flat. Swam. First time since…
Circle tonight
Gwynethwarm energy 1
The facilitator stopped the room when four of us were talking at once and asked one person how she was actually doing. It changed the whole hour. Went for the…
Quiet
Ronansteady energy 2
This week: Steady. That is the whole entry. No news. The dog is well, the weather has been foul, and I have taken my medication on the correct day for the eleventh…
Sunday lunch
Bramawkward energy 3
Well then. Sunday lunch at my grandmother's. Small plate, long afternoon, no drama, and she was happy. A wedding. Three courses I could not face, a table of people…
Eight minutes and a chair
Clovertired but good energy 3
Evening. Two sessions this week, both short, both done. Ren keeps saying that two a week for two years beats a perfect programme abandoned in March, and he is…
Paired
Junoheld energy 5
Right. She had a bad week and I had a fine one, and next month it will be the other way round. That is the whole mechanism. Paired up. We text on Sunday nights, four…
