  • Stayed for the company

    Gilly1 Jul 2025warm energy 5

    Right. Went for the practical answers and stayed for the company, which I gather is what everybody does. Somebody new tonight, terrified, exactly where I was in the…

  • She stopped the room

    Kai1 Jul 2025warm energy 3

    Went for the practical answers and stayed for the company, which I gather is what everybody does. Circle tonight. Eight of us, an hour, and about eleven minutes of…

  • The list on the fridge

    Maeve1 Jul 2025steady energy 5

    Right. 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 is…

  • Nothing to report

    Marnie1 Jul 2025fine energy 3

    A quiet week. Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then a normal weekend. I nearly did not write this week because there was nothing in it.…

  • An unremarkable week

    Minnie1 Jul 2025fine energy 5

    This week: Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then a normal weekend. I nearly did not write this week because there was nothing in it.…

  • Six labelled boxes

    Ravi1 Jul 2025organised energy 2

    Two lines a day in a paper diary. Date, and one thing. That is the entire system and it has twice changed a clinical decision. Batch cooked on a good day for the bad…

  • A rough few days

    Sorrel1 Jul 2025flat energy 2

    This week: Very tired. Not the kind of tired a nap fixes. I slept nine hours and woke feeling as though I had been awake all night. Headache for three days running.…

  • I nearly did not write

    Thea1 Jul 2025steady energy 4

    A brief account of 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…

  • Nothing to report

    Tilda1 Jul 2025fine energy 4

    Week in order: 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. Nothing to…

  • She read the diary

    Aleks30 Jun 2025frustrated energy 2

    Late, and writing anyway. Asked the question I had been avoiding for eleven years. She answered it in about ninety seconds and was completely unbothered. A locum who…

  • No mask

    Esme30 Jun 2025foggy energy 5

    Evening. Repeat study came back and the apnoea is much reduced. Ten years of that mask. Vivid dreams, every night, the sort you have to sit up and shake off. Two…

  • Where the pen lives

    Juniper30 Jun 2025organised energy 5

    Well then. Tested three cool bags against a thermometer this weekend because I am that person. Results written up for the travel circle. Small logistics win: worked…

  • She noticed first

    Sara30 Jun 2025held energy 3

    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…

  • How are you doing on a Wednesday

    Sonia30 Jun 2025held energy 4

    My buddy noticed something in my journal before I did and asked me a very gentle question about it. She had a bad week and I had a fine one, and next month it will be…

  • A locum

    Winnie30 Jun 2025heard energy 1

    She reduced one of my other medications. I asked her twice whether that was really allowed. Asked the question I had been avoiding for eleven years. She answered it…

  • Walking

    Clemmie29 Jun 2025tired but good energy 4

    Walked instead of the bus all week. Not a programme. Just walking. Two sessions this week, both short, both done. Ren keeps saying that two a week for two years beats…

  • No news

    Clover29 Jun 2025fine energy 5

    Evening. 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 write…

  • Two sessions

    Inês29 Jun 2025tired but good energy 3

    A quiet week. Grip strength has gone off and I noticed it opening a jar before I noticed it anywhere else. Back to loading properly. Kept the two sessions that matter…

  • A different shape

    Nuala29 Jun 2025tired energy 2

    Well then. 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 written…

  • No mask

    Oskar29 Jun 2025rested energy 2

    Notes for the week. 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…

  • Awake at four

    Romy29 Jun 2025foggy energy 5

    Late, and writing anyway. The sleep has changed shape rather than improved. Different, not better, and I cannot yet tell whether I mind. Waking at four again. Not…

  • Where the pen lives

    Wystan29 Jun 2025organised energy 4

    New sharps bin, and a plan for what happens to it when I move in September. Two lines a day in a paper diary. Date, and one thing. That is the entire system and it…
