I am aware that I have been quieter than normal on here. I am still around but not felt like blogging at the moment. I’m just tired a lot. Everything just feels like too much effort. I try to do simple things around the flat which shouldn’t take much energy but I feel like I’ve… Read More I’m still around, just not on the blog.

I woke up with the best intentions to get everything done. But I did a few bits and washed my hair only to end up feeling overwhelmingly tired. I’m wiped out. I even slept okay last night. I think it must be a delayed reaction to what I have been through. I used to be… Read More Today is just meh.

I have begun to feel indifferent towards everything and everyone. I’m emotionally tired so I’m literally shutting myself down. I need a break from allowing myself to feel things. I find it extremely tiring. I never thought that there was such a thing as emotional tiredness until I started to feel this way. I have… Read More Emotional tiredness.

I haven’t blogged for a few days because I have been having time to myself. I still need to do more clearing out of my flat. I have 2 bags full of clothes ready to go out. I just need to contact the charities to let them know that there will be bags for them… Read More Taken a few days for myself.

I started the process (and that is definitely what it’s going to be) of clearing out my clothes that I no longer wear today. Then I started to look at what was needed to be done elsewhere. It’s going to take a lot longer than expected. There are places I’ve not been for a very… Read More Clear out time… much more huge job than I first predicted. / Invisible disabilities being acknowledged.

I have had writers block for a long time. Today it finally lifted after a few years of ‘brain fog’. Don’t get me wrong, I am still feeling too exhausted to write a project like a book. I’m still making progress a little though. I have been for a long walk today and carried home… Read More Writer’s block finally lifted!

I was up by 9am. However, I don’t feel like I’ve had a lot of sleep due to waking up in the middle of the night. I got back to sleep eventually but not until after 3am. I have done half of what I needed to do in my flat today. I am now needing… Read More Woken up early again but didn’t sleep well last night.

I know that this sounds a bit odd but I actually cried during the programme. That system was a mess throughout last year. I saw something nearly every day resulting from the benefits system being a complete disaster. I can honestly say that last year was perhaps the worse year I can ever remember for… Read More I, Daniel Blake. – The UK Benefits System.

I woke up at 6am but didn’t get up until half 8 because I felt really numb. I found it difficult to actually wake up properly this morning. I even splashed my face with cold water but this didn’t help me feel any less zombified. I forced myself to go on a walk despite not… Read More I’m not feeling great today 😦 / The past is affecting me quite severely.

I was awake, bathed, dressed and out by half 8 this morning. I came back to do some housework (slowly working through it due to preventing complete burn out) and now having a rest because I can feel the tiredness hit me. I haven’t walked for 2 days due to not having a huge amount… Read More Another early start! Burn out trying to knock me down by lunch time though
