Nothing
Lulow energy 5turning point
Flat again. I have stopped looking, which is either healthy or avoidance and I genuinely cannot tell. Flat while Lil was not, which was hard. The plateau has been…
Before nine

She noticed first
Vivheld energy 2
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. My buddy noticed something in my journal before I…
The list on the fridge
Rohansteady energy 1
Protein first, everything else after. It is not interesting advice and it is the only advice that has changed anything. Was undereating without realising. The nurse…
A wedding
Ashloved 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…
Nothing to report
Blysteady energy 4
A quiet 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. Steady.…
The question I had been avoiding

Iron and B12

The list on the fridge
Rinsteady energy 4
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 own. Got something with…
How are you doing on a Wednesday
Raviheld energy 1
Notes for the week. Paired up. We text on Sunday nights, four or five lines each, and it has quietly become the most reliable thing in my week. My buddy noticed…
No news

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. I nearly did not…
I wanted to stop

A brief account of the week. 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…
Grip

A brief account of the week. Kept the two sessions that matter and dropped the two that were vanity. Fewer, heavier, done. Walked instead of the bus all week. Not a…
Laces
Beagrateful energy 2
A quiet week. Got down on the floor and back up again unaided. I have not been able to do that since 2021 and I did it twice more just to check. Swam. First time…
