just saying hi

Hi Everybody,
Going back to work monday,trying to get back to normal. If i tell myself it's not that big of a deal i think i will be ok. i have to stop thinking so much my mood swings are off the hook.

Linda,

Good luck with your therapy. In the sense of being something to cope with on a daily basis, the therapy is NOT a "big deal". But, in the sense of how it affects your health.....it IS a "BIG DEAL". Hang in there.

If you need more advice with therapy, the forum will be here to help you.

Best wishes,

Good to hear you're making progress in adjusting to this life change. As you begin to feel better, hopefully it will be less and less of a big deal. As much as possible, allow yourself some extra sleep time (on the machine). Your body and mind needs pampered for a while to help you replenish your depleted resources. I personally advocate waking naturally for a while so that your body completes all the sleep cycles it needs. That may mean a very early bedtime, but jolting yourself awake before being completely rested may just prolong your recovery time. That's not from any medical books, just my personal experience. Best wishes.
