APRIL 24
What bothered you today and why?
This specific thing happens a lot recently, but it was particularly bothersome today. I have been getting good amounts of sleep and, apparently, deep sleep (I have a sleep tracker app on my phone), but I’m still exhausted all day. Today, I could barely keep my eyes open at work. I actually had to go home, take a nap, and come back afterwards. That nap was over 3 hours long and I could’ve slept even longer. With my headaches every morning and aggression that isn’t like me (post to come), I keep thinking something is wrong with my brain. Then, I just tell myself I’m overreacting and chalk it up to my anxiety and depression. Thing is, I don’t feel extremely depressed or anxious. I watch too many medical shows, as well as study the brain, so I bet I’m just overreacting. This nags at me all day and I’m just over it. I want to stop being so exhausted and weak all the time. I’ve been told to go to the doctor numerous times, but my overreactions don’t warrant a doctor’s visit. Plus, every time I go when I don’t feel right, I’m always told it’s nothing, so I’m not going to waste my money and my doctor’s time to be told I’m okay. I’m stubborn, I know. Anyways, that’s what is really bothering me at this point and time.

Hey this may be random, but have you had your thyroid checked? An imbalance can case fatigue as well as mood/emotional issues (and a bunch of other stuff lol)…its pretty easy to diagnose and usually pretty easy to treat…maybe worth getting it checked?
Thank you for the suggestion! I last had it checked 2 years ago and thyroid problems do run in my family so it definitely is likely. I’ll have them check that when I go to the doctor for my regular checkup! xoxo
