Hey @Shaz51, thank you for asking, and I hope you get a better rest tonight.
These might sound like silly victories, but I slept 8 hours last night and ate a banana for breakfast, and those feel like huge achievements in the face of my eating disorder, insomnia, depression, etc. I definitely don't feel actively good, but I feel calm. So I'll take that as a win for now.
I'm also preparing lists for GP, physiotherapy, and counselling appointments next week, thanks to the advice given in another thread. It's slow going, because I feel a bit spacey and am having difficulty concentrating, but it soothes my anxiety about upcoming healthcare. It's the calm before the storm, and I know I will struggle again soon, but I'm enjoying the mental quiet while it lasts. I'm grateful to have this community. Thank you again.
