  • I nearly did not write

    Ike14 Jun 2025flat energy 5turning point

    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.…

  • Nine minutes

    Mo14 Jun 2025heard energy 2

    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 printout I could not…

  • An unremarkable week

    Petua14 Jun 2025steady energy 3

    Short one tonight. Steady. That is the whole entry. I nearly did not write this week because there was nothing in it. Then I thought about how much I have got out of…

  • An unremarkable week

    Rafe14 Jun 2025steady energy 2

  • She read the diary

    Soraya14 Jun 2025heard energy 3

    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…

  • Into town and back

    Tinuke14 Jun 2025quietly delighted energy 5

    Evening. Slept flat. Whole night. Flat. 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…

  • I nearly did not write

    Abel13 Jun 2025fine energy 5

    An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most of it looks like. Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then…

  • An hour on the floor

    Marnie13 Jun 2025quietly delighted energy 5

    Short one tonight. 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…

  • Dreams

    Stellan13 Jun 2025tired energy 3

    Recording this for the record. Slept through. Whole night, no waking. It has been so long that I lay there in the morning trying to work out what was different.…

  • Laces

    Tulla13 Jun 2025grateful energy 4

    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. Walked into town and back, which I…

  • The space it left

    Wystan13 Jun 2025unsettled energy 4turning point

    I did not know other people did not have this. That is the part I keep turning over. I assumed everybody was doing the same negotiation all day and simply not…

  • No mask

    Rohan12 Jun 2025rested energy 5

    Notes for the week. Waking at four again. Not anxious, just awake, lying there listening to the boiler. Slept through. Whole night, no waking. It has been so long…

  • Propped up on pillows

    Aria12 Jun 2025sore energy 4turning point

    Three things this week. A rough few days. Not dangerous, just relentlessly unpleasant, the kind of unwell where you cannot read and cannot sleep and cannot settle to…

  • Two lines a day

    Bram12 Jun 2025organised energy 2

    Well then. 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…

  • Come back in a year

    Clover12 Jun 2025pleased energy 3turning point

    Evening. A1c down. I looked at the number for a long time and then rang my mother, which surprised us both. B12 and iron checked and treated. Bloods back.…

  • Propped up on pillows

    Espe12 Jun 2025rough energy 2turning point

    Evening. Reflux again. I slept propped up on three pillows and woke at two anyway. I have an appointment on Thursday and I am going to actually mention it this time…

  • Dreams

    Florrie12 Jun 2025foggy energy 4

    Slept through. Whole night, no waking. It has been so long that I lay there in the morning trying to work out what was different. The sleep has changed shape rather…

  • Into town and back

    Keeley12 Jun 2025pleased energy 5turning point

    A quiet week. Slept flat. Whole night. Flat. Lifted her mother safely without her back going. Got down on the floor and back up again unaided. I have not been able to…

  • Fewer, heavier

    Romy12 Jun 2025tired but good energy 2

    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…
