Fatigue

Community Leadermujicaptsd

No real great thoughts here. It's just that I had a bad bout of fatigue today such that I finally went to bed at 6pm. When I was young I was a night owl, but since PTSD was followed up 3 years ago by kidney disease from meds and diabetes followed that, I've usually been able to stay up until 9pm and go to bed then. Only holding out until 6pm was dispiriting today.

But I've gotten messages from others at DS PTSD this week who have experienced fatigue, too, so I thought I'd try not to suffer in silence. That can get me depressed. Don't know what to say, but anyone else experiencing fatigue lately, this one's for us.

I've been known to go to be early sometimes, too. It's like taking a bath, only drier.

Muji, it's march and it in the low single digits, there is piles of snow 3-4 foot on either side of the walks and drives....I am wore out waiting on Spring. Seasonal affective disorder is usually not a problem when we have hints of the weather changing, but when the only hint is on the calender, I wanna use it to block the view of the snow.

Okay rant over, rest well amigo., slip away watching the mermaids in the water off the Calypso.

Fatigue makes everything worse.

Pain, isolation, coping, socialization, ... well ... absolutely everything, doesn't it ?

Pain's that way, too, and -- like the rest of the stew -- they're 'tightly-coupled.'

May you and melatonin have a wild night of blissful slumber, tonight, and be profoundly well-rested tomorrow.

Been feeling the same Muji. We had another yukky weekend of snow and below zero temps.

On a brighter note, this coming Sunday, March 9th IS Daylight Savings Time.

Yay! =)

Yes, I have been too...your not alone. It comes and goes with out notice for me, but I do have sleep narcolepsy so that adds to it. I'm fatigued because of my sleep at night. I only slept 3 hours last night because of weird disturbing dreams that wouldn't let me sleep.

It's weird, because most of the time I love sleep to dream...just not when the dreams are bad.

DST is a bright side, literally. But that also means we LOOSE an hour of sleep... BOO!
