I did the same thing with the box, for six weeks, in a two-bedroom flat. We are ridiculous and we are fine.

low energy 2a turning point
Ada said something in circle that has stayed with me: that a plateau is weather, not a verdict. I have written it on a card.
Flat, and calm about it.
Three months of no change and my blood pressure has come down anyway. Two things can be true at once and I keep having to relearn that.
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 fix it.
Second plateau, and it is easier than the first, mostly because I have been here and come out the other side without doing anything clever.
Slowly does it.

The bit about the two hours before is exactly it. I have never seen anyone put it that way.

No wisdom, just: I am sorry. That sounds genuinely hard.

This is why I read the boring weeks. Thank you for the boring weeks.
